A quick google of 2 stroke & DPF will leave you more confused than a confused thing that's been confused. For every post saying it burns cleaner so less work for the DPF, there's another saying no. The wonderful thing about the internet is the amount of bollocks sprouting from everywhere, now if I could just invent a bullshit filter you'd get to see me on dragons den. In all honesty I would probably wait until the warranty is up before I tried it, but if someone else wants to be the guinea pig I'm prepared to listen to the results.

last time i got dipped it was a big coke bottle (2 litre) with two feet (60cm) of garden hose on the end the pig (police cuntstubble) just squezed away at the bottle untill some diesel came up the pipe into bottle, thus revealing the color (white, in the case that day) dissapointed with this he asked to look in the back for stolen generators etc, but thats another story.

Definitely notice the 2-stroke benefits in my 90T350, idles much smoother, much smoother drive, red one seems better then the green one, I'm currently using halfords scooter 2 stroke till I find a cheaper local option, 9 quid per liter I think, only the mineral stuff.
