There must be a place where I can get this stuff cheaper online! I'm anal and only want to use this stuff:
I'm Telling you this stuff is probably the best stuff money can buy! I've done thousands of miles using this stuff, come to do a rebuild and I struggle to see what. Piston, cylinder is in like new condition! No Exageration. I'll even put a picture of the piston I took out of my DT when the thing got nicked and red lined everywhere for 355 miles! My bike got thrashed that night. Pinned everywhere by the CHAVS that stole it. Apart from a bit of piston slap everything else was alright. Could have just bought new rings! And that was the piston that came with the bike. So 10'000 miles then nicked and pinned for 355!
But I don't fancy paying this price for it :\
So anyone know where I can get this stuff online ?
I don't like buying oil online cause I only buy it when I need it and don't want to wait about.
Lol. The only time my DT smokes is when i've just fired her up in the morning, after that no more smoke for the day. P.S, i think the colour of the oil is pretty cool, it's fooking deep purple!

Try opie oils... He's pretty good on prices.. He sometimes gives discounts to forum members(on other forums) so he might be able to help here aswell...

i just buy castrol 2 stroke scooter oil about 7 quid from garage, run every bike iv ever had on it never had any bother
2 stroke is 2 stroke, all ur paying for is a name
all oil has to pass certain tests for any market so iv tried em all and never noticed any difference apart from smell
This stuffs epic NORFE!
Although even the guys at the dealer said don't buy its mean't for prolonged high RPM useage. I said I'm a teenager, is there any other useage!
Smells LUSH! Even unburn't it's mouth watering stuff. I'd drink it if it didn't kill you haha. Plus it must cost a lot cause it's had a lot of R&D in it. Although it does specifically say PRE-MIX only! Hmm :\ I've been buying it for years and never premixed it. it's got like a 50:1 ratio on it lol. I'm sure it'll be fine.
i made some hydraulic hoses up on a fork truck at silkolene in belper ages ago and got 375 leters of 2 stroke lol it was damaged stock was going for desposal so he told me to take it if i wanted it
sold it all at armthorpe and finningley mx tracks on 2 sundays £6 a ltr lol
"i wunt bother paying for silkolenes prices its all the name your paying for, its a near enough exact mix as putoline & castrol with different colourings"
thats what there dispatch manager told me his brother worked for a section of the refinement of the oils....
so straight from the horses mouth
60,80,100,125 cc mx bike engines rev alot harder and faster that a dtr motor and never had a problem with cheap oil
so save your sen a few quid mate...ur just been another victim of clever marketing slogans

You serious mate. I mean I know you wouldn't lie. But you're telling me that it's pretty much the same mixture as the greatest Castrol which is about £13? They guy at the factory told you that?
I mean I'm not arguing. Just that's a right rip off if that's true!
Callum you big turd! I don't see what all the fuss is about :p
^ This is the stuff i've always used.They're based literally down the road from me in Stoke-On-Trent. So i guess the pricings are different here. I pay £15 a bottle for mine, not the pre-mix just straight race oil. The smell gives me a stiffy, no smoke and is of a good quality.
As has been said here already, just try and stick with a brand you like, read reviews and by all means go for the cheaper stuff. The only reason i still use this is because it's the only oil i've ever used (Still running auto-lube, fśck pre-mixing, do enough of that on the RM!). I said to myself when i had the DT (my first 2stroke) that i'd always run good quality oil.
Btw, this stuff is basically the same as the stuff i use for my RM but the pre-mix version. I've only just noticed this particular one, maybe give it a try :P
lol. It's nice. I like the smoke. You ever notice how KMX's smoke all the time. Mate my DT will piss all over any KMX. Even older unrestricted models. That KIPS is shocking. Driven off the gearbox in the KMX. Is it a common fault that like the Aprilia's RAVE system they can get clogged up. Where as our YPVS system does a cleaning cycle. when engine is off.
The Aprilia does it between 200-300 RPM. Not sure on the Kawisaki though.
that strawberry **** is nasty it might smell good but when i used to be behind my mate my eyes would be bloody burning like hell for a good few houres arfter
