I figure a full tank plus two litres should be plenty.  I seem to remember bringing three litres last year, and having one to spare. Recommended tire pressure? Back to top

Which equates to around 30 PSi front and 36 PSi rear. Personally I tend to run about 32/34 myself though. If your pump's set correctly I reckon a full tank plus one litre will be enough oil. Perhaps better to be safe than sorry there though, so if you can take a little more fairly easily it might be wise. I'd imagine most fuel stations don't stock good 2 stroke oil over there?
