Message: [QUOTE="SpDyKen, post: 1071524, member: 60208"] Modern, Formula 1 inspired, extensively engineered, high-revving four stroke racing engines are truely technological marvels to myself and many others. They have their pluses and minuses, as I learned riding & racing a 1984 radial 4-valved XR200 Honda as well as seriously roadracing them for several years. I'll own another 4T dirt bike some day, for sure (maybe for Super Moto). For now, however, I enjoy, and value, the simplicity and relative reliablity of two strokes, and believe the AMA has made another in it's long list of mistakes by making it impossible to be competitive on one in professional MX racing. I think variety is indeed the spice of life and was VERY happy to see Doug Henry win a championship on a 4T. But the displacement advantage given was obviously too great, IMHO. I feel for the privateers! :( [/QUOTE]
