Timbowe:
100:1 amsoil has always been my choice.

machine:
100:1 :shock:  WoW!!!!!

BigKX:
According to my engine builder, Yamalube keeps the crank bearings alive the longest.

NastyNick:
50:1 BelRay H1R

btw, BelRays web site says this about the two premixes:


--- Quote ---
The diff betwix these two full synthetic ester based 2-stroke oils is simple. Bel-Ray MC-1 2-Cycle Synthetic Racing Lubricant must be pre-mixed at 50:1 and Bel-Ray H1R. Synthetic 2-Stroke Racing Oil is more flexible and can be mixed betwix 30:1 up to 50:1
--- End quote ---


So running MC1 at anything other than 50:1 is a no-no

p.s.  kind of a cool page for general 2-smoke oil info: http://www.belray.com/consumer/Q&A%20pages/q&a2s.html
