I’ve been running yamalube for my premix and the Honda hp trans oil for the transmission since 2002 in all my two strokes and have had good results. After watching a video recently with Jay Clark he recommends shell rotella for trans and klotz r-50 for premix. Just curious to what you guys recommend and also your guys opinion of yamalube and Honda hp and if there’s anything better.


Have always used an inexpensive 10W40 or 20W50 in the trans. Change it ever few rides.
More expensive oils may do something for you that these wouldn't but not sure what that would be.
I did use Rotella in the crankcase on the CRF450s I've had (separate crankcase/trans case).

We have used Honda HP 4 in everything for years. Even mowers and the generator power washer etc. Never a issue great stuff. We do now use Bel Ray in our four stroke race bikes now.
HP2 two stroke oil is also great stuff used it for years also. We just returned to riding some two strokes again and use Bel Ray H1R at 32 to 1 and it is great.
For transmission oil, you can't beat Bel-Ray Gear Saver.
Used Motul Transoil prior to Ipone, but after I poured the first bottle in, there was no going back. I had no idea oil could make such a difference in clutch operation.
Bel Ray "Gear Saver" 75w
Since 1978.....My chit don't break...
Rekluse no longer recomends Shell Rotella because of what you stated.
