Oil Question

Oil Question

In all honesty I am new to the biking world... I acquired my grandfather´s ´74 Kawasaki 400 however, and am interested in fixing her up! I did a compression test, replaced anything that looked like it could do with a replacing and got her running; my question then is about the oil system. My main car is an older Volkswagen bus so I am ignorant of the two-cycle workings. There is an oil reservoir below the seat on the right, is this an auto feed to the carbs or something else? Which type of oil should I put where? Or do I mix the oil myself into the gas... a 32-1 relationship I´d assume. Any information would be appreciated! Just send me an email please. Thank you,
Patrick
