There are a number of members that have 250 multis. Some have a 250x3 or a 250x4, are we still allowed to participate with the 250x1?
:innocent:

Ive never had a 250 multi's - they were around when I was on a learner's and restricted licence, but I had a few 2-stroke's instead - I ride a V-twin 1000 four stroke now, but still lremember and appreciate the lightness, handling and power bands of the 250 2 stroke.

Have you multi guys tried the 2 smoker's ??

georgedubyabush - You got in in one. Matthewt and CelticNo6 have 250x3 bikes.

My first three bikes were sweet smelling two strokes. :2thumbsup The RD350 was an awesome machine with a real power band not a power range, grief I am sounding really old.

I am currently trying to decide between a DT230 and a WR250 to go adventure riding.

Go the two strokes:rockon: , they hav their down sides like lack of torque and peaky power, but they are light as anything and easy to perform maintainence on.

So who has the smallest then? Our 249cc 4s are about 62 and a quarter cc each cylinder. How small can a 4 stroke get?

Plenty of 50cc four-strokes around.

On the other end, I think the VTX1800 would win the current 'biggest production cylinder' award. Didn't Honda say at one point that the VTX's piston speed was higher than the Fireblade's?

Can't be arsed getting engine specs and working it out.

That'd be Kawasaki's new Vulcan 2000 now. 2 litre V-Twin.

And yes I probably am compensating :)

I say sir, would you just step this way a moment? Spelling Police. No sir, won't take a minute. Just bend over, oh yes, very good sir, just a little further...

Bzzzzzzt.

:Offtopic:

I think that we are off topic and have really hijacked the Club250 into something else.

Mike the Bike rode a six cylinder multi was that a 250 fourstroke?

suzuki also did the rs67 racer, V4 124cc, 2 stroke, 12 speed gearbox, 42hp at 16500... equates to a power/capacity ratio of 340hp/litre

(none of this is off the top of my head in case you were impressed...)

Ok so when u say 250x4 do u mean 250cc per cylinder in a 4 cylinder Bike? And yea it went slightly off topic and its in the 250cc forum so they dont need to mention the 250 club bit
