    250R mixture ratio?

    What is the correct fuel/oil mixture ratio for a 1984 250R? I just picked one up for $400, and want to make sure I mix the right amount.

    Just wondering how you can recommend a mix without even asking what kind of oil he's running? Id strongly disagree with 40:1 across the board. Most synthetics and hi performance oils are intended to be run at 50:1, your Yamalube, Honda stuff and other factory oils run at 32:1 to 40:1, and your general purpose outboard 2 cycle motor oils should never be run leaner than 20:1 to 25:1. Proper ratio is determined by oil, and not by the bike model.
