Like what is it with the word "like" that like makes it like so like appealing to like use? Seems it should either be or not be if it's like something. ;)

Did you change the jetting or just change your ratio? By going to 50:1 you now have more fuel per given amount of mix than before which is going to make the bike run rich (adding more oil would make it run lean). If you didn't re-jet just try running the Amsoil at your old ratio or maybe 40 or 42:1 and see if that helps solve it. The is nothing that says the Series 2000 oil can only be run at 50:1 ratios. The Montesa 315R that I sold to Rich ran perfectly fine running it at 80:1 :yikes: (yes really, it was the specification) in VP MR2.

I would run at least 32:1 in your 85.

Maybe re-read my previous post and decide.
