ok, more dumb questions

[Dave223]

I finally got my 84 R rideable, except for the rear brakes (Im waiting on these to come in). My first question What should the premix be? 20:1, 24:1, 50:1 ? what type or brand of packing is recommended in the silencer? And last but not least, what oil do ya recommend for premix? Thanks, Dave

i like to run 40/50-1
i use blue marble,or amsoil
and MOOSE has a good price on silencer packing,contact dennis kirk mail order for ordering

Yeah. I run Lucas Semi-Synthetic Racing oil at 34:1 and I love it. Barely smokes and it performs great. Just test out different oils and ratios and see what you and your bike like.

I almost bought the Lucas SS oil yesterday, but figured Id ask first...Hows it run? and what did you mean by what the bike likes? whats the minimum ratio I should run in it? Man, 4 strokes sure are easy!! hehe But I love this trike, Dave
