How much oil does a 2 stroke motorcycle need?

The amount of oil a 2 stroke motorcycle needs depends on the size of the engine and the manufacturer's recommendations. Typically, a 2 stroke motorcycle will need between 100-200ml of oil per litre of fuel. For example, a 125cc 2 stroke motorcycle will need around 100ml of oil per litre of fuel, while a 250cc 2 stroke motorcycle will need around 200ml of oil per litre of fuel. It is important to check the manufacturer's recommendations for the specific motorcycle to ensure the correct amount of oil is used. Too much oil can cause the engine to smoke excessively and can lead to engine damage, while too little oil can cause the engine to seize.
