Thanks for the response, JasonL. In the VLR class, both fuel and oil are open at the moment, so I was thinking of going for something more economical than what I have been running. Considering we are running a 25:1 mix ratio, an oil formulation that handles the RPMs yet is a bit more affordable ...
