    I am running Golden Spectro at 50:1 and see no wear at all, except of course the typical ring life stuff, have well over 100 hours on my 93 360 (probably closer to 150) and no issues

    Slight derailment.
    Does Castrol "R" or BelRay still have a following? I have fond memories of their aroma & am seriously considering getting back into 2 smokes, obviously I'll use the best oil I can get, but just a little nostalgic reminiscing when I saw this thread.

    I used to use Blendzall for a little while. It's not for the casual rider, for sure. Certainly smells good, but sticks a variety of things on a trail bike top end. Power valves get gummy, as do the piston rings, which then stick in the lands and don't expand properly, causing a bit of performance drop and more heat overall. It also has to be absolutely freshly mixed. Old mix will deteriorate rapidly, and the castor oil will become separated and almost stringy in the fuel, causing all kinds of mayhem. Been there, done that.:thumbsdown:

    nostalgic? a good choice is Maxima 927, smells good
    I ran it for years at 40:1 with pretty good results and enjoyed the smell for sure ;)

    It does smell great but I ran it in my 250SX and I had a hard time with plugs. Went to a synthetic after that and had no issues. It ran like a mofo with blendzall tho!

    The formula has been improved to burn clean, I believe it's called Blendzall Ultra now. It's down side is it expensive. Virtually no wear when using.

    Don't be modest, I know lots of guys with boats that don't know that stuff.

    I run maxima super m (got a 5 gallon bucket of the stuff!) just to stir the pot a little.... my father ran a Yamaha hi-perf snowmobile (sx700, triple cyl, triple pipes liq cooled) for well over 20,000 miles (odo broke 10? years before he sold it) on the cheapest shitty tcw-3 oil he could get from wal-mart.. that sled was wailed on an beat for its entire life, never put a crank on it, lost 1 cylinder as a result of a bad head gasket. his theory? "it all gets burnt, what the point of burniong more money"

    I don't think Belray sells an oil that smells like that anymore. I used to love the smell of it when I was a teen, but don't remember what that oil was called.
    Maxima 927 is a castor/synthetic blend and smells every bit as good. I used to run it in my RM, and occasionally an old timer would come up after a race and ask what oil I was using because it smelled like the 70's :banana:

    Castrol "R", now that bring back memories. That was the only thing I would use for years. Wish they still had it.

    I used 927 for 6 years in my 125, only doing a piston/ring once a year. The motor was like new inside when I sold it this summer, but after so many positive reviews of Amsoil Interceptor and Dominator, I inquired. They signed me up (no charge) as a preferred customer and I'm paying less than half for Dominator than I was for 927. They keep insisting that I'm good at 50-1, but for $8/L I can afford to mix it at 36-1 when I'm motocrossing . :thumbsup:
