My personal preference is a 2 stroke I don’t know why people say more maintenance and stuff...a 2 stroke you don’t need to change motor oil every 2 ride rather you change it every 4 or 5 months...and a 4 stroke has allot more moving parts valve train..timing chains...I just like the simplicity of a 2 stroke and the raw power hit.....plus it take a 4 stroke engine to work twice as hard to equal the same amount of power a 2 stroke can make....but if you like long riding go with 4 strokes they are more fuel efficient a 2 stroke eats up allot of gas.

I like 4 strokes thats wut u grew up riden but that was in the dirt and red clay.   i got out in the sand here and ate s**t.  the 2 strokes just seem to glide over the sand im riden birkbikes and not 4 wheelers also though.

Post by: whitenight on November 19, 2004, 05:48:43 PM
also when you come up to a jump all you have to do is get on the gas and it goes not like the 2 strokes where you have to cary your speed and have to cluch it all the time


Title: Re: 2 stroke vs  4 stroke
Post by: Magnum330 on November 19, 2004, 06:37:26 PM
4 Stroke of course.
Get on the trail behind a 2 stroker and you'll smell like a chain saw. Except around live2ride he uses rocket fuel and plane fuel (R/C Fuel) LOL. Both have goods and bads I say it depends on what ya going to do with it.

So tro....you can get a lot of power out of a 2stroke.....but it Power all the time with the 4 stroke and you dont have to mix the gas...
And yes its only cool to see girls ride the pipe...

NO power in 2 stroke???

Surely you jest.

thats why my 500cc has 68hp and your 660cc has 34

I dont have to downshift to pass anyone either like i do with my raptor, it just gets up and go, its called Power Band.

As for Torque, please there is no 4 stroke that will pull off on me..

Long live 2 Stroke,  keep the 4 stroke for the harley boys.

Must be the 2 stroke you owned that you didnt know how to tune or maintain...

WOW!! A LOT OF HATIN' GOIN ON HERE!!
Personally, I prefer a 2 stroke over a 4 stroke because of the style of riding i do.  If your looking for just a pure joy ride and an occasional drag race your friend bike, or possibly motorcross, then a 4 stroke may be good for you! I do alot of TT racing and am starting to get into the drags, therefore the 2 stroke works better for me.  
OH YEAH!  FOR ALL YOU 4 STROKE BOYS DOGGIN' OUT THE 2 STROKE.  DEC 5 - SAND MOUNTAIN!!  EXPERT MONEY CLASS! BRING IT! DONT SING IT!  WE CAN DRAG IT OR GO 6 LAPS! YOUR CHOICE! BUT DONT LEAVE YOUR SACK AT HOME CAUSE YOU'LL NEED IT!  ;D ;D ;D

We could agrue about why which is better all day ive owned both i prefer the raw nasty torque of the thumpers and the sound,but love the smell of the 2strokes

Post by: RTR_380/450R on November 21, 2004, 07:05:25 PM
Dont know. We'll see. depends on how the funds are going into Christmas! Things get kind of tight around then ya know!
I might go give you boys my money though!
Im just not set up for the drag, but give me some time. Were working on a little somethin'.  
My quad has plenty enough to do it! But its just not feasible to set mine up for drags when i race it so much!
AM I MAKIN' EXCUSES, OR AM I JUST A LITTLE SCARED!!
???

CAN YOU SAY 750CC TWO STOKE DRAG QUAD.
HUMMM!
WHAT CLASS WOULD THAT RUN IN!

Now there's someone i like :)

As for challanging 2 strokes on hill climbs, i think your making a very bad challenge.

PS i dont own a QuadZilla or whatever term you choose to call it, I have a hybid, something i made and put together not what the manufacturer feels like giving me.
