Default 4-stroke twin.

I have been riding 2-strokes since i was about 15 years old and i still and always will love my banshee over any other quad.

Do any of you guys think Yamaha is gonna throw in a 4-stroke twin to replace the banshee someday or what?

I really don't think they would let the twin cylinder deal just die with the banshee. I think it is bullshit they didn't even try to make 2-strokes run cleaner to meat emissions in the USA.


Anways, i just read the two strokes strike back article and it was quite interesting. It would be awesome to see a new 2-stroke quad come out. I know im not the only die hard 2-stroke fan. But it really sucks knowing there isn't gonna be any more two-stroke quads coming out.



Anyways i just want to know what you guys think. you can read the article here

Could 2strokes return possibly so! Will 4strokes return probably not, especially in the ATV field. I personally like 4 strokes and would rather see a Turbo charged Diesel

Yeah that seems to be the big problem. But if you read the article, it showed how they made the aprillia 125cc fuel injected 2 stroke street bike. The bike just isn't street legalized.

Very interesting subject.
