1993 kdx 200 oil?
does anybody know or could reccommend what the best kind of oil to mix with my gas on my 1993 kdx 200? I figured since it is an older bike that I should mix my gas with the best oil brand to keep the engine running strong.

That's a can of worms.... but my recommendation is Amsoil Interceptor mixed at 40:1.

Nothing wrong with 32:1... you will just use more oil. Since it isn't cheap and oil is real high quality anymore.... we stretch it to 40:1 or even 50:1

I ran my CR and KDX at 50:1 for a bit with no problem, but switched to 40:1 mainly for the ease of mixing, plus a little more lubricant. Like Vince said, it's all in what you want to do.
Yes, they really do let me drive the Train!
