Gas/oil ratio on a Honda Hobbit?

Question

I just got a Honda Hobbit. How much oil do I add to the gas?

Answer 1

4 Oz's oil per 1 gallon of Gasoline (US measure)

That's a Mix Ratio of 32:1,,and is almost "universal"

Premium Oil is a bit more pricey,,,but well worth the extra$$.

It tends to "pay for itself" in better fuel economy and increased spark plug life.

Use any Synthetic 2stroke motorcycle oil.

Or at least make certain it's actual MOTORCYCLE Oil,,,

and Not outboard motor oil,,or weed whacker/chainsaw oil.

If you ever find yourself in a pinch for oil,,,ANY type of 2 Stroke  Oil is "OK" for "emergency use".

Including the ones I just said NOT to use,,,LOL :)

It's Not that you CANT use the  Non-Specific oil,,,

It's just MUCH,MUCH better to use "Correct Type" of 2 Stroke Oil

Correct= Air Cooled Motorcycle 2 Cycle Oil.

I'd suggest saving those in a folder on your computer,,,

That stuff has a way of vanishing from the 'net after a while

Hope that helps,,Have Fun

***NOTE: about Oil Mixing.

The Ratio I suggested is Different than Honda's reccomendations.

Honda sez 25:1 aka 5oz per gallon.

32:1  aka 4oz/gal is perfectly safe and works much better.
