Re: w2000 oil mixture

Went to my local motorcycle shop to ask about Silkolene 2T oil they did not have it in stock but were able to get it in a couple of days. Am now in need of front brake pads and tachometer. Tach face totally missing. Any ideas? Ike

Re: w2000 oil mixture

Not sure my W2000 is actually a 1977 model as the title says. I have read that oil injection was installed on these bikes after 1976 but mine has no oil tank,oil pump, or oil cap on fuel tank. So my question is whether it is possible for this to be a 1977 without oil injection?
