Since this is no good for the engine, I have switched to 40:1, and I am happy with it. An added bonus is less mess from the unburned oil that comes out of the pipe. And just to be safe, I only burn premium gas in my stock engine and my 13:1 compression engine.

2bampDude right Freak'in on! Now Thats what I'm Talking About!
You made the adjustments, and learned. Atta Boy!

I use Motul 800, 50:1 always! break-in to broke down, all other tunning is done by jets. If you are asking what model of bike, every bike I own, especially the GRC.

50:1 quick silver senthic, with premeium but it blows out oil like crazy

If it blows oil out like crazy then you're not running at 50:1. Double check your measurements.
