Maybe Kawie will come out with something like a Tecate-700R with a 5valve 700cc 2-stroke engine that would kill everything

Your specifications are correct, but incomplete, 86atc250r! You neglected to mention the new Kawie sport quad's engine is a diesel with CDI and Splitfire-style spark plugs.

I believe the spark plugs are of hemispherical design also, like the glow plugs.

If the diesel were two-stroke, even a rare "5 valve 2-stroke," as Recon Boy suggests, it would require a supercharger for opeation.

Really? No kiddin'?

Maybe so, but don't try to tell us diesels don't have ignition systems and spark plugs, Mxracer98!

I put a kanutzen valve on my 250r. It was so fast, I had to sell the motor to my brother. He put it in his Cutlass and know it pulls 10 seconds for the 1/4 mile. I put an old weedeater motor into my 250r(with a kanutzen valve) and it is still too fast.
Also, I saw a Kawasaki that went through a big pond and when it came out it had some reeds on it. I think that they are still on there.
