Just a idea but maybe this works better on air cooled engines Bcs the 2 stroke oil is acting as a cooling agent cooling down the combustion chamber preventing detonation.
I have been running the Redline racing 2T for weeks now... its FAR superior to the weedwacker oil.. in both the 9 and the 12. Its hot as hell in Florida right now and they are both just running like silk.. Ive never had a summer this good with the XBs. That Redline 20w-60HD is a big part of that too but the 2T is just like a cherry on top.
Yamaha has a good additive for E-10 Fuels ect.. and so does Startron Starbight. I only use it for storage.
I have been adding Yamahalube 2 stroke oil to my Diesel Fuel tank for more Lubricity. I add the same amount you mix with 2.5 gallons of gasoline to 20 gallons of Diesel fuel.
Adding Two Stroke Oil to E-85 ect sounds like a great idea.
I have put as much as 1.7 gallons of E-85 in my 3.5 gallon tank on my Yamaha FZ-07 with no known issues.. I have used 88 Octane when available which is E-15 usually costs 15 cents per gallon less than E-10 87 Octane.
Man, you're all over the place, lol. Not much more an additive can do for "lubricity" in a fuel oil thats already oil... like diesel fuel oil is.
I would recommend the correct octane minimum for your motorcycle, and E-85 in it will kill it quick simply by being dramatically lean without the ability to richen enough. If you like the bike. Stop doing that. Unless you are smarter than the engineers that designed it, do what they say. It's for your own good.
Ethanol sucks, and more Ethanol sucks more. Get your gasoline without it if you can. You will get more power and better function. Period.
But keep track if you're saving 45¢ for a tank of gas but putting $7.99 worth of additive in it.
I pour about 8 oz. of 2 cycle oil into the 25 gal. diesel fuel tank every fill, it helps quite it down a bit and partially takes the place of the sulfur.
