I fly Rc airplanes with a 50cc engine, most of the guys use Lawn-Boy ashless 2cycle oil to break in there engines. Would that be a good choice for my 80cc motorbike engine?

Yes, that will be fine. I use Penzoil for air cooled engines myself.

Just don't use outboard oil.

Outboard oil is made differently and is for engines that are water cooled, and run at more or less constant rpm
