depends on what kind of riding you do. woods and trail or racing for woods and trail i reccomend 14 and 52.

for racing probly like a 13 and 46 not sure i dont race. i woods and trail ride.
but there are racers on here that can say for sure about the race setup.

13 gonna give u lot more acceleration but slower on top speed. I had 13/52 on a 2S 125 and was fun but very short gearing and no top speed so I went back to 14/52. I don't think unless your racing you like the 13 but the acceleration from it is killer if you can deal with the speed loss.

Since you own both, test them out and let us know what you think.

Mine will spit oil also, it is just your premix. It is just a 2strike thing.. I mix 32:1 and I get good plug readings so I just run it.
