    They are faster because? Don't they have the same engine? Can't the MC28 be derestricted?

    I have a VFR400 swingarm with the wheel waiting in the garage for a worthy bike to fuse it onto. Suppose an MC21 would be a cool project bike. Get the TYGA 300cc kit and everything

    Ok and here is another beautiful MC 21 now does anyone have a good weblink on detailed information about how two stroke engine works with perhaps some animated pictures.

    I've read through howstuffworks very good website, but if anyone has good website links worth a look chuck it here please. Adios!

    I'd love to see some too, it makes everything much clearer to see it working in an animation. Please anybody got some links?

    I love these old 250s and even owned a couple of them but just remember that they're now getting very old. Parts are either hard to get or about to be hard to get. A lot of them will have had the stuffing caned out of them too. Go into it with your eyes open and don't make the mistake of falling in love with one (unless you truely want a classic/restoration project). NSR would be my pick followed by the TZR. I'd give the RGV and KR1 a wide berth.

    Alright Steamy fella I'll spoon feed you even after giving you the link here's an example hope it does help

    The wonderful two stroke cycle, thoroughly explains the revolution difference between two and four strokes. Firing spark on every stroke as opposed to every second stroke on the four stroke engines. Valves no vales.

    And the four stroker explained here. Hope that helps

    Does anyone know anyone selling a Honda RS250???
    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.

    Anyone know if they sold any of those RGV250t (vj23) models new in NZ as full horsepower bikes? What overseas markets got the full power models?
    Anyone know where I can find a deresticted SAPC 32900-42E10 ?

    Cheers

    England and Germany got the derestricted models (though most of the UK ones now are grey imports and thus restricted)

    Dunno where you cna get a full power box (and if I did I'd buy it myself, nah-nah-nah)

    RZ350 is a good two stroke, I have one, smooth and powerful and reliable to boot!

    Another good 2 stroke is the KR250S, it's filled with 80's goodness like 16" front, and 18" back wheel combination, and the S model has power valves so it's not too bad low down. Fairly unreliable though, look great though and go pretty hard.
    Two Stroke, the pinnacle of engine design
