[QUOTE="longtime coming, post: 1367300, member: 67999"] 2 strokes will die when internal combustion dies IMO, but not before. The "light, simple, inexpensive" statement is probably true. Politics seems to allow a lot of pollution in industry, but attacks lesser polluters (like cow farts!). Engineers now seem to embrace the complex and discard the simple but effective, also. Oh well, times change, but usually cycle. I remember the first 4 stroke street bike I bought (after a few 2 strokers); man that smelled good, after all the 2 stroke smoke. It was before I ever had a pick-up truck. As a kid, I thought a bike that smelled and sounded like a car was pretty cool. Now I'm back to loving the smell and sound of a "singing" 2 stroke, knowing full well that eventually there will be some 4 stroke dirt bikes in our future around here. The "non-competitive" thing is definately BS though. 2 strokes are starting to win here at the local level again. Some people will change back to 2 strokes for a while, I think. Until the manufacturers are forced for whatever reasons to lose what makes a 2 stroke good ("light, simple, inexpensive"). We'll end up on electric bikes maybe. They won't sound or smell right, but probably perform well. :ride: "Never" always happens, it seems. [/QUOTE]
