Anyway, the way 4 stroke technolgy is improving, you will forget about 2-strokes in about 5 years....They will have the same or better response and power bands.

The USA is the only country that has strict emmision laws and is going to be soon banning the USE (notice I said use) of 2 stroke engines. Canada however, and the rest of the world is far behind. We don't care about emmision laws yet therefor 2 strokes will still be around. I've talked to many dealers around here and no one has heard anything about discontuning the 2 stroke's.

I am just kidding around. I have some good Canadian buddies that I party with. They get so mad when they talk to Americans that know little about Canada. It is really is really fun to mess with them.
