    Gas/Oil Mixing ratio.

    Hey all. I have never owned a premix bike before, but I just aquired one through a trade. It is a 1981 yz125 2stroke liquid cooled. Does anybody know what the premix ratio of the gasoline is? Thanks alot!

    check with the dealer or someone else might be able to help you out. but until then mix it rich so you see blue smoke but not too rich because you will foul plugs and it will bog down. its better to see blue smoke then none.

    Thanks redrider. The guy I got it from ran straight gas !
    Luckily he only ran it for like 10 seconds because he is too short to ride it.

    People are stupid. I knew a guy once who used to fill up his YZ250 and put a bottlecap full of oil in it as premix. Needless to say, he didn't have that YZ for long.
