Dropped into our local Vespa scooter shop this afternoon and picked up a '2%
oil mix cup'.
Overpriced at $6.88 + tax and somewhat cheaply made plastic (had to smooth a
few sharp edges with emery cloth), this cup is very handy for quick oil/gas
ratio mixing.
It is marked for the metric system, US measurements and the old Imperial
system. note: geared for 50:1 mix
Unless you just prefer to support your local merchants, you can get a
pretty nifty oil mixing bottle at Walmart for $2.17. I couldn't find
it on the Walmart site but the brand is "Sea Sense" and I just saw a
whole bin full of them at our Walmart store. I've used similar bottles
for years. It's marked with several different ratios, 50:1 is one of
them, and it's idiot proof.
Here's a link to it on the Sea Sense site:
