Marine oil?
« Reply #15 on: December 25, 2014, 12:58:08 AM »
Bought the Bel Ray that bettin suggested since it was fine for injection systems and the spectro is premix.  I'll try it after the big bore kit.  I'm not sure if I've completely gotten into the new oil yet,  but it isn't belching as much on first run as it was. Still there though,  I don't mind. 
And the color of the Bel Ray is beautiful. I got a good look at it as I poured about four ounces down the front of my white riding coat it the parking lot.  That fancy pour spout outwitted me...

Nice!!! You can't go wrong with the BelRay. One cool thing about it, when it starts to stink instead of smelling sweet then its time to change to a new plug. Also the SI-7 hardly smokes at all.

Ah,  that's the smell.  I about started to worry when I smelled a bit of sweetness.  Thought it was coolant. I do have and extra head gasket,  but I'm not in any hurry to replace it.

LOL!!!

When you get to the new "kit" post up. I'd be happy to share a few pointers for preparing the parts before installing it.
The prep makes all the difference!

Trust me,  I will be on here in a hurry bugging y'all.  Once I have it shipped I will be collecting info for prepping, installing,  and breaking in. 
Also  I finally got around to emailing Josh at the scooter garage.  Hopefully I don't come off as a tool with my slightly long winded message!

Nice place to hunt more things down.  Gonna drive the girlfriend nuts though.  I had just settled down from the constant reading on these forums.  Now I have a new place to inadvertently ignore her at. 
...I swear I don't mean to,  lol.

I have a tough time w/ GF's myself. 4 forums, 2 businesses, and now I'm beginning school (chemical engineering).
I'm also starting another business (hydrofoil sport boats), and that entails an interactive web site, and another forum.

The true blessing is I am so busy that I never notice if she is here or not. The draw back is I find myself saying "yes dear" to my 7 dogs...

I need to be euthanize d!

LMAO.  Busy busy.  Between me and my gf we have three little girls.  I wonder if I get a dog if they'll not notice me spending time with my scooter? I'll probably end up being the one to care for the wretched thing...

LOL!!! No doubt.

If you wanna make god laugh... tel him what you have planned. ;)

I guess (for me) the important thing is sharing your life, and time together. It's not all about what you do but simply about being there.

Merry X-mass to you guys. :)
