Bike feels peppier

I remember the question in another thread some time back. So did you run different gas/oil ratios and find 32:1 to give better "performance"? I remember the context of the previous thread was about power - is that the performance gain or are there other things?skipro3 wrote:. . . Personally, I find that running 32:1 gives me better performance. More oil will do that. Just ask Fuzzy. He told me, I checked it out and it's true . . .Colorado Mike wrote:I am really only using Dominator because that's all I can find locally. Is there any advantage to the Interceptor?
Thanks for sharing . . .

Wibs is speaking to throttle response most likely.
The more oil you use increases ring-seal thus creating more PEAK power.....Nothing to do w/ throttle response...Expect better throttle response w/ thinner mixes....Possibly. IMO, throttle response seriousely outweighs peak power in a woods situation. Now, riding in sand, etc I'd run 20-24:1, maybe more, and heavy castor blend too boot.....Only to immediately dump that fuel when home from that trip to the sand, and purge the friggin bean oil out.
