Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Hello Folks, when I bought my MB5, the previous owner had taken off the oil reservoir and capped it; then he began running pre-mixed gas/oil in the machine. I don't know if I got my ratios off or if my gas can was dirty and I crapped up the carburetor, but my last tank of gas/oil isn't working very well and the bike has become pretty sluggish unless I raise the RPM's pretty high.

Just got me thinking-- for those that run pre-mix in their MB5, what fuel/oil ratio are you using? And do you have a preferred oil that you like, or do you just use regular 2-stroke oil?

Thanks.
