myself i like both two strokes and four strokes.
they both have thier place in the atv market. they can both do whatever you want them to do.
there is pro's and cons to both.
i just hope that we will be able to keep making the decision on our own of what we prefer to own. i don't like the idea of a government party telling me what i have to ride and the choice is no longer my own.

 

I'm a 2 stroke man myself, much to my girlfriends dismay. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

technically they may be louder but you can always hear that pissed off bumble bee from farther away. i guess b/c it higher pitched

 

My first ride was a 2 stroke, and the next 2 after that were 2 strokes. Then we got a 4 stroke. I love the 2 stroke power band, like a shot of NOS, just flat out take off. then, the torque of that Z400.... cant go wrong with that either. I still have a thing for the 2 strokes.

IMO, 2 stroke are louder, hands down. wide open on my KX 85 is so loud its almost not even funny (almost [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]). The Z isnt near as loud as our 2 strokes, (besides the LT80). Im sure the larger thumpers like the CRF450 are loud, but I dont think they are louder than the 250 and 125 2 strokes.

 

exactly, a 450 compared to a 250 even if it was louder thats a 200cc difference. its like comparing a straight piped 454 to a coffee can civic up close the 454 is louder but that whine can be heard farther away

 

SRK399- how fast is your kx 85?

 

I like em both, but nothing compares to the eye-watering arm pulling speed of a nice big 2-stroke.

 

my rap is very loud w/o baffel but it still dont compare to an aftermarket pipe, yes 2strokers can be heard from farther away but i think they sound bad honestly....no offense

 

My dealer said top sped is 85mph... but as Ive come to find, they are full of ****. They told us $6,200 OTD was a great deal on a 2003 Z.... Ive never topped it out, its a 6 speed, Ive probably got it up to 60 mph AT LEAST. Its about even with my Z, maybe a little more on top, so maybe 75mph. Its completly stock too.

 

yeah i remember my dealer saying my rap would go 85mph... right away i knew that was bs, dont listen to most dealers all they care about is money, greedy arseholes
