High mileage redheads oil brands?

[MM70001]

Could you guys post examples of redhead engines with high mileage and what brand of oil you used?

 

[devinzz1]

20000km and since theres nowhere to get fancy oils here i always used the esso 2-stroke oil at the local gas station

 

[methanolhemi]

I will run amsoil or yamalube if I feel rich. I mostly always run valvoline 2 stroke oil.

 

[YooperMike]

I wouldn't consider it high mileage, but ~6500 miles on my MM and always used Yamaha 2S.

 

[Madmatt]

Whatever

On a redhead it doesn't matter. You could probably use your used motor oil out of your lawnmower and it would still go forever. LOL

haha madmatt is right! the redheads are bulletproof... I used petro canada snowmobile oil in my 03 Mountain Max 35,000 km

We run Mysik oil in all of our vehicles. We install about 300 gallons of motor oil a year, and 20 to 25 two stroke oil, both Watercraft and Snowmobile. Al

5300 miles, wal mart super-tech. 10 bucks a gallon. 01sxr700. no problems so far!!

 

[hastedog]

Years ago a Pennsoil salesman told me that alot of the off brands were sold by major refiners and just bottled in different labels. Some with lower prices some with higher. I remember reading Turk saying to burn the cheap stuff so I use Motomaster....no problems and 4800 miles...

Just sold a 2002 SX600R 19,008 miles was still stock (never rebuilt) when it left my garage. Yamalube then Citco Sea & Snow.

P.S. I have a 2001 SX500R for sale 8,500 miles used the same oils.

7700+ miles, new pistons, rings, and outter crank bearings at 7500 because I could. Amsoil HP Injector. Which I believe has now been renamed to HP Marine if I remember right.

x2 here. I always ran yamaha oil on any boats I worked on and we never had any problems with them.

 

[MakAtak]

Yamalube for 16,000 & for ever just cause I like to support my dealer, but I dont reckon the brand matters on these bullet proof redheads, and I use premium gas
