I hate to tell ya Ferm but HPDI's require the same Yamalube that every other yamaha requires, 2M. It's nothing special, no magic going on there just 6 oil lines, one behind each reed block. There is also a little fed to the vst to lube the fuel pump and that's it
It's still best to run a DFI oil with ring free and anti-varnish build-up in it. That was one of teh HUGE downfalls of teh early FICHTS was the use of regular 2 stroke oil and the carbon build-up that came with it.
