As new to convert to MZing I would be grateful for any advise re suitable containers for 2 stroke oil and location for storage on a TS 250 even if it requires adaption/brackets etc. I have been use to auto-lube systems,and woulds always carry a spare bottle of 2 stroke in a tank bag when on long runs especially when over the channel, but this is a last resort solution when out and about on local runs.
So any advise would be most great full!

I have an old jameson's leather case attached to the back of my luggage rack. In it I place an old red-ex bottle which holds 250ml of oil. I run my bike 40:1 so if I put 10 litres of fuel in I know that I have the right amount of oil going in. It also makes folk think I have whiskey on board!

I always used an old scottoil refill bottle and kept it between the clocks when riding, and under the side pannel when parked up.

I've used a cheap military style canteen, the case cable tied to the frame.

I use a baby bottle (not the feeding type!) and just put it in your jacket. Holds 200ml
