I just bought a 97 blaster. I just put new boysen carbon fiber reeds in it and was wanting to change the oil. I have heard it takes 650 ml but is it the same amount or more for a blaster that has been bored 40 over? And is the Lucas 10W-40 motorcycle oil good to use?
oil change question

i use yamalube 4S. and u need 3/4 of a quart i believe. as long as the oil is for wet clutch. some ppl use ATF tranny fluid. read around u'll see which to get
use belray 80w nothings better for it. also yes its 650ml the top end has nothing to do with the oil in a 2 stroke. you are chaning the oil in the crankcase its the little oil cap right next to the kicker. and you are still running the oil injection correct (meaning you fill the oil in the tank on the back of the bike right?) if not i sure hope you are premixing.
yes, i premix my fuel. u used lucas 10W-40 motorcycle oil. I called a yamaha dealer and they said that would be fine.
The oil is for the trans and clutch only. The oil in the gas lubes the motor. The trans where you add the oil is sealed from the crank case.
no i didn't meen i mixed it with the gas. i used it in the crankcase. i used klotz pre mix oil to mix with my gas.
i have another question also. does anyone use the low ash semi synthetic lucas premix oil?
i have been using klotz but it is hard to get where i live sometimes. i was thinking of using the lucas because it is easy to find here. any comments?

Check out that link, its an oil comparison sticky thread. Click on the link in the first post and watch the oil comparison video. The Lucas oil performed miserably or outright failed in nearly every test conducted. I'd stay away from it for sure. Just my two cents.
