i have an RS125 mate n i use silkolene 2T and silkolene light gear oil

seems to be best to run out bout a tenner a piece mate

[blackie_2k5]

good quality fully sythectic oil, the silkolene 2t is all a good cheaper alternative

[lt-saxslo]

i always used silkolene fully synthetic, never had any probems with it

yes there are more expensive ones out ther....but the 2t meets what the RS125 needs....my RS has been run on it since new....done 12k and still runnin strong and they say it should need a rebuild after 10k :S

silkolene 2t

Or the Castrol stuff you can find in many petrol stations is what i use :)

I used fully synthetic Castrol TTS when i had my rs125, don't ever use mineral or semi synthetic.

[SAM-S44MDS-]

yes the silkolene 2t or comp2 as some places stock it as... or the castrol is fine... aslong as its a good quality oil....aslong as you buy it from a decent bike shop they will be able to advise you aswell....just make sure you maintain it and keep all your oils topped up because they dont take much to kill lol....known a few people have them seize up while riding aswell from running them low.....absalout great bike tho....best 125s ever

I'll own up to that, ran it down to reserve left it thinking it would be ok, bought some 2t, topped it up then entered the NSL dual carriageway, got to 70 and bang! Rear wheel locked up, big tank slapper and next thing, im on the hard shoulder all because I didnt top up resulting an air lock in the oil pipe, school boy error :wall:

Lol yeah, luckily I managed to stay on mine, shit me right up though but the top end are easy to rebuild so sorted that myself.

[blackie_2k5]

my kmx seized up on me while riding, was flying through a privat carpark and it locked up totally (off raod tyres) didnt stand a chance of staying on, ripped up all the freshly re-surfaced carpark and my knee and hands

Silkolene Comp Injector 2 but its hard to find. Castrol TTS is readily available, I use that in my RGV.

Just dont mix brands as I blew a few engines doing that :S
