  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Hi Guys have just got my hands on a 2008 WR250, Recommendations on 2T oil I run my Son SX85 on Motul 40/1 , What are you using and at what ratio. Thanks in advance Dave
 
Motul is good stuff. You can't go wrong there. I use Motorex 2t in all my two stroke bikes. The trail bikes get 60/1 and the trials bike gets 100/1. Runs clean, smells good, low wear on engine parts.
 
I use Maxima Super M at 40:1.

You're probably going to find as many options in this thread as you would if you browsed through the 2-stroke oil section on your favorite moto parts website. I firmly believe that any of the brand name quality oils will work fine.
 
The Motul 40/1 you're running in your boys bike should work just fine in your 250. Keep life simple. :thumbsup:
 
I am REALLY not trying to start something here, but, why does everybody say "do not" run outboard two stroke oil? If it meets Mercury and Yamaha specs why is it bad? I have always been told not to but never given a reason why. Just curious.

It is designed to work at a constant load with a different design of ring. Ring surface radius is much steeper on an outboard engine piston ring, and overall engine compression is lower.
 
ALL THE OTHER OILS LISTED ABOVE SUCK**************************************** :banana:

Srsly though Maxima Castor 927 mixed 32:1. Never had issues *knock on wood*
 
Does anyone use Elf Moto Sport 2 Competition Oil? Is it any good?100% Synthetic, 100% ESTER Formula.

I know dirtdame replied but another consideration is injector vs. mixing oil, a fair number of engines inject and they are a little different oil
