[QUOTE="Convert, post: 1204274, member: 77088"] [b]Out Of Hand[/b] This has gone the way of madness already!! All this chatter about passing emissions testing is neither here nor there, a MX bike is a [B]closed course[/B] bike, emissions mean nothing. Anyone here ever built a 350 chev?? or for better comparison say a SOHC toyota or honda automotive engine.....really not that difficult. So what's so hard about maintaining/building/replacing parts in a single piston engine with 4 valves? The argument that 4 strokes will break the bank if you need to work on them is BS, are they more expensive than a 2 stroke...yes....but let's be realistic if they were so painfully expensive they would not be so popular. It seems that the internet is doing great at spreading half truths and rumors from he said she said. Next...the issue about 4 strokes getting an advantage; argue all you want but the fact that a 2 stroke produces power on each stroke and the 4 stroke produces power on every other stroke can't be argued. So explain to me why you feel that it's unfair to almost double the cc in order to even out the playing field. The fact that a 4 stroke makes power over a broad rpm range is in fact better than the narrow range of a 2 stroke. 2 strokes are pretty damn cool when you hit that pipe and it rockets away, however, something can be said about cracking the throttle on a 4 stroke at any rpm and have it pull like gangbusters. If you like the 2 stroke you will most likely argue they are the better engine, if you like 4 the same applies. It's all about where technology is going and 4 strokes are where it's at. Deny it, cry about it, try to rationalize, believe everything you read on the net, do what you like...it's the truth. [/QUOTE]
