[QUOTE="WoodsRider, post: 83443, member: 16545"] Personally, I prefer 2-strokes for off-road/woods type riding. They are more difficult for beginners to control. However, once you master clutch and throttle control, you can go anywhere a 4-stroke can go, usually faster too. The added bonus of a 2-stroke is lighter weight and easier starting. Although the new KTM 4-strokes are definitely making a challenge in this arena. As for noise emission, having conducted sound tests, KTM 2-strokes with the factory pipe and silencer are the quietest off-road bikes out there aside from trials bikes, which are also 2-strokes. I always get a chuckle out of 4-stroke owners who install those obnoxiously loud exhaust systems, yet complain about 2-strokes being too loud. :scream: With that being said, I'm looking forward to the new crop of 4-strokes looming on the horizon. Maybe one day I'll buy another one. For now, I'll stick to 2-strokes, thank you very much. :cool: [/QUOTE]
