I was always using 1 bottle to 4-1/2 gal of gas in the bikes.  How would
you determine the correct amount??

The Quaker State plastic quart container has a translucent strip
on the side marked off in fluid ounces. Just remember how
many gallons of gas you put in and dump the same number of
ounces of two cycle oil. It is not all that critical.
The fuel sloshing around during taxi and take off should mix it well
enough. 

One gallon is 112 fluid ounces so one ounce per gallon
is 112:1. Two ounces per gallon is of course 56:1.
At that level you should still not see oil smoke.
