Advice needed on buying a smoker!

[DELLORTO]

sorry your a twat, but what do you base this drivel on? have you seen him ride?

.....next time you dont have to say sorry....just say "i know everything and you no nothing" that will do it.


and this guy can buy whatever he likes it his money....


i was just warming him about the dangers, since he dosnt know anything about 2 strokes i thought it was wise to tell him not to buy and 250 2t

[DELLORTO]

They age fine, there's not much to wear out, and the bits that do wear out are relatively cheap (try buying a ZXR250 piston).

Yes, but it's all do at home stuff... gearbox oil is about a litre, cleaning the power valves is a tooth brush and kero mission.

They'll pillion, but it's not fun.

Yeah, reservoir will do a huge days riding, there's a warning light when it gets low.

Might need pistons and rings, but it'll feel sluggish and won't rev out nicely.

Always warm it up. On that model, if the temperature display (digital) isn't showing a value, don't ride it till it does.

Oh im sorry, when i know everything like you, ill start posting on kiwibiker.....

I didn't know anything about 4 strokes either... until I bought one.

well its abit different with 4t's because when you twist the throttle the power comes out in predictable amounts, but 2t's the power comes out whenever it likes and how it likes so its not ideal for road riding and traffic

I find it hard to believe that they're really that fickle. Why would anyone own one if they were?

because they are cheap,fast and some of them are even reliable

plus not many people have them anyway i would only use them for racing, my 85cc mx'er is alright but that got abit of getting used to

when you make inane comments like "a 2 stroke will kill you" you reek of ignorance and arrogance. Close your mouth and open you mind.

Come on Dellorto, let's be fair here... you lost all credibility when in your first post you suggested I get a Hyosung. You gotta expect a alot of doubt after that.

naw not that fickle it just goes from no power below 5k like 20hp till 8k then full power hence the powerband just need to ride it like a well two stroke!

and the best thing is the smell!

But they have fuck all torque and you have to rev the snot out of them to get them going anywhere...

Seriously man, if you have the coin in your pocket sort out taking one for a ride and decide on wether you want it or not based on what it is really like.

and there have been projects that dyno'd past 70 horse.

Ah the old "One of them somewhere dynoed at XX Horspower once so thats how much mine has!"

I see you own a VFR400. THAT'S what I'd really like to get, more so a RVF400 like this one http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...x?id=232865004. Those bikes suit my riding style perfectly, but I better keep it legal until maybe Xmas or even save a little more and get the new model. I'll be taking a friends RS250 for a decent spin to see 2 stroke riding is for me... the mechanical maintenance and running costs are something I'll deal with as they come if the riding gets me off.
