First tip from me would be to use the search! Every single one of your questions has been asked and answered many times before!

They aren't very forgiving on here if you can't be bothered to help yourself look for information!

1; yes, all normal NSR250 engines start mc16
2; oil pump setup details here
3; it's correct
4; Honda say 10w/40 in book.
5; I use Hein Gericke fully synth in the road bike, its the cheapest fully synth I know of, Castrol XR77 in the race bike.
6; 95 or 97 ron, heard some bad things about v-power.
7; my old wet clutch was like that, never really looked into why and it was fine for a couple of years.


Oh, and hello, enjoy the forum!

Make sure you use a 2T that is made for oil injection. You don't want to use a pre-mix oil and risk clogging an injector. These are normally somewhat more cost effective than top of the line pre-mix 2T.
