i use this stuff, was recommended by 2 different garages. around £9 a bottle
if this helps this is from the website: COMP 2 INJECTOR
Synthetic ester based 2-stroke engine oil, with Electrosyntec Technology, for high performance motorcycles. Advanced, low smoke formula reduces engine wear, provides outstanding reliability and combats piston seizure, ring sticking, plug fouling and carbon build-up. Ideal for all modern sports and off road 2-stroke power units, ensuring maximum performance and reliability. Can also be used as a premix in trials and road machines and is particularly recommended for cold weather use, or where a lower viscosity oil is required.
Specifications
API TC
JASO FC & FD
ISO-L-EGD
Both the garages said the same to me, putting a higher grade oil than this is pointless, only a RS125 or similar will need the more expensive type.

any fully sinthetic 2 stroke oil from a respectable name should be okay to use. just for the love of god dont buy ****ty oil. anything over 7 pound a litre should be okay
Shell Advanced VSX 2-stroke oil, its fully synthetic and availible at any shell garages, i just pick up a bottle every now and then when im filling up with V-power :)
i use the same as craigbulmer, have done for every 2 stroke ive had and never had any probs jaso and iso etc is designed for less clutch slip and moving heat away from the hard wearing areas not every oil offers this, especially for under £10, value for money and recommended

I used that once, Bike didnt sound Healthy and didnt smell like a 2 Stroke so i Used the good old Silkolene Comp 2 Plus
isnt that like £13.50 a bottle lol? dont really want to spend that much for smell lol, especially when two garages said exactly the same and they are always after money lol
lol, i have a 2007 model, if that makes a difference?
by the way whats a good coolant to use, my coolant is running low and i need to get a good one, tha manual says it has to be anti corrossive and wo with aluminium engine?
i have a full dep exhaust system, but people telling me i have to do some playing around with some engine parts to get best preformance and reduce wear or breakdown?
i don't know what to do? let me know if you do plz if you don't thats cool
you dont need to do anything if you have a dep, if your using another exhaust system there is no need to rejet unless it is running poor, if your bike is running fine, leave it
alot of people think putting a dep pipe on meens you need to upjet,its not the case
ive used that comp 2 since august (when i passed my cbt), my dt was run on ****ty 50cc scooter oil b4, made an instant difference to my bike, runs so clean compared.
its best value for money really, comp 2 plus is too expensive and is said to do nothing more. plus ive ran my bike all winter on it its been absolutely fine
dtmo, have you ever tried the 2 seperate? there is a big difference, you can feel the way the engine runs, also cheap grade oil will ruin your engine, there is a couple above to choose from, your choice, failing that go to a local garage and see what they have in stock for your dtr
