Got my first bike

[Mx523]

Its a 2003 Yz134, full port and polish job FMF SST and shorty sliencer tag bars. This thing rips! I'll never go back to quads again now.

I have a few questions though, 134cc means its .80 over right? Whats the best oil to mix my gas with? Could you guys give me some tips on riding a two stroke bike? I'll be doing trail riding and some pit riding and later on in the summer I'd like to take it to a track. Thanks, I love my bike! :ride:

If you do a search/searchs on this forum you will find tons of info for the questions you asked.

Best recommendation is to make sure you have your bike properly jetted. My last 2 stroke bike I had, i went through 3 spark plugs in 4 years. I ride my bike often too. I never fouled one at all.

For premix, I used Redline @ 40:1. YOu will get alot of different recommendations for oil. Use one that your local shop stocks for when you ar e in a pinch and need some. I noticed when I tore down my top end, the crank always had a nice coat of oil too.

Congrats on the new ride, have fun :)

Yea, quads are definately not as challenging as a bike, or as fun in my opinion. I use Maxima Castor 927 in my bikes, premix at 40:1 as well, thats a good mix ratio, especially for trail riding. Ive found that 32:1 will leave a thick black buildup on top of your piston, and 50:1 is not enough and will shorten your ring life. :aj:

Oh yea, and heres a riding tip, sit close to the tank as you can as to try and keep the front wheel down in the upper RPM's. :laugh:
