    As someone who works on engines for my daily bread - give me a 2 stroke anyday,there is just so much ''stuff' on a 4 cyl 4 stroke....more things to go wrong.

    You don't want anything to go wrong when you're racing now do you?
    Thanks man! I will keep that in mind, thanks for the advise.

    actually Ill throw cat in withy ya birdies---Id suggest a 650 V twin.
    Why? well stock they put out 65hp for the carbied model and 75 for the injected.
    they are all relatively young--all 99-2006 models so the parts are all fairly unworn.
    and um look at the national level race results--650 twins leading
    and i heard tell some prick on a 650 twin won the auck club champs too
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    Yes I wonder who that prick was that won the club champs(wink, wink)! The thing is frosty, i dont have enough skill to start of with a 650cc(or the money), so it will have to be a 250 2-stroke or 400. Thanks for your advise.

    Don't forget 400 singles. Cheap, light, reliable and FUN with a capitol "F" on tight back country roads.

    Why is it people think a 2 stroke revs higher when in fact they don't. May be cos they fire every revolution so they give the impression they are revving higher.
    Suck, Squeeze, Bang, Blow aren’t just the 4 cycles of an engine
