I got sucked in thinking it'd smell of bubble gum when burning ... but does it?!!?

I've not tried it yet (will be using at the w/e) has anyone else tried the scented stuff?

It's a novelty to begin with but you get sick of it after a while. Well, you get sick of following someone who is using it.

I have heard that it doesn't smell good when burnt, just when its in the bottle... I might have heard completely wrong though

I suppose it never said "strawberry scented when burnt" ... so it probably just has a whiff of 'berry in the bottle and smells normal when running ... what is the point of that!?!?!? ... I guess you get the suckers like me drawn in?!?! Laughing

It smells like chemical strawberry when it burns. Like those strawberry and cream sweets which have never been within half a mile of a real strawberry.

EDIT: It is pretty good quality oil though.

Its fully synthetic ... and a trials engine is fecking high compression .. so much so, you have to run it on high octane fuel!!

I am sure if it is good enough for a trails bike, its good enough for a sh1tty scooter!! Wink

Anyway, tried it out today ... does smell nice in the bottle, but doesn't smell at all like Strawberries when being used/burnt ... its actually quite and acrid smell!! Thumbs Down

Still Putoline is good oil/make so the engine is happy even if my nostrils aren't!! Laughing

I used to put a cap full of that in the tank of my NC29 every time I filled up. Just for the smell. Cool

Nah what im saying is that it isn't good enough for a sh1tty scooter so for a high grade trials bike the pugs will be covered after a few rides
