I have a 99 YZ125, and have been experimenting with oils, ratios, and jetting. So far, I like the Motul 800 2T the best (even if it is the smell - In the world of a thousand oils, something has to differentiate). I emailed the company, and they swear by 50:1. 50:1 in a 125 seems to be heresy at DRN. Bottom line - Is anyone using Motul at 50:1 with good results and not damaging the engine?

I know people who have and had no problems, i run at 32:1 and for the sake of a few pennies saved why bother going to less oil-under normal use i would bet you would see no problems at 50:1 but say you got stuck in a mud bog or your rads were partially blocked then wouldnt you prefer the peace of mind of more oil?
