Late to the conversation but this guy is very knowledgeable and does a good job explaining things. The Motorex is very good two stroke oil, they have all good oils and a few years ago I have moved specifically to Motorex to include chain lube, yes I still lube my chain and this stuff does not flick off or make a mess at all. I also like the containers Motorex uses with pull out funnel spouts and they have good seals to keep the product on the shelf. All in all this is a top notch oil.
Have used the cheapest jaso fd oil for my 2023 sx 125 ( and earlier bikes) without any problem. Also did that on the sx 85. Never had a piston or crank failure.
Had my 300sx since October Only had a a chance to put 1.5 hrs on it so far. I Ran VP T2 cut down to 60:1 with 95 octane non- ethanol. Bike ran flawless.
@@themotocrossmodchannelWulfMX OK thanks! I just picked up a new 300XC yesterday and was planning on running T2 then I started looking at the ratios. 40:1 vs 60:1 Dealer wasn’t too much help.
@@kurtheidelbach 60/1 on the 300's! T2 is 40/1, if you want to run the same "type" of fuel as T2 which is slightly oxygenated, you can run VPR and add your own premix to get 60/1. VPR is the same oxy content as well as some of the specific gravity, etc. Good luck and if you want a better running ECU after you ride it, let me know, working on a tune library right now for it. Thx!
I bought a 23 tx300. Fouled a plug once. Now i warm it up and blip the throttle and dont let it load up too much and its fine. Took me like 30 Min to change the plug. Thats my one complaint on the bike, i am in new england and it’s perfect for riding on my farm and the woods
Check for latest map update and have the TPS setting checked. I have a 2024 TX300. Got the latest update and now I don't foul plugs anymore. Plus, I can connect a pinit racing scan tool to the bike to read/clear codes.
The classification of oil for my fuel injected TPI smoker is JASO FD. The FD indicates it will work with injectors and oilpumps in the TPI, even at lower temperatures. For my 300 SX TBI its not that critical since the oil is diluted in the gas, I'm happily using FC or FD classified oil.
@@themotocrossmodchannelWulfMX thanks man. I'm a complete rook ass rookie with all this I just picked up a new 2022 this weekend.

Thanks for replying all the way from England! What oil do you run?
I miss the beautiful smell of R50, may have to try it out. However the bike is tuned for pump gas and cross power so i doubt i'll change it up.
I use this in my 2023 Husqvarna tx 300 the spooze so bad it gets all over the brake rotor .
Try running VP T4, it will clean it up.
@@themotocrossmodchannelWulfMX I use vpr which is the same as t-2 without the oil in it
