Of the Two Stroke.....
I'm sad to say I read today that Honda will cease to produce the 2 stroke line of CR's from the end of '07'. Same goes for their outboard mtrs etc.
They will be 100% 4 stroke.
Now you just KNOW everyone else will follow.
For those of us (probably a fair few) that started out on the smokers....that's a sad day I reckon.

Thats pretty sad news. Maybe I will hang on to my KR now....

One hell of a ride.
Smelly smokey noisy and all squeezed into a narrow little peaky power band - the problem is?

I know what you mean mate, but that was the best thing about them.
Sure taught you the meaning of the term 'Throttle control'!
One hell of a ride.
Fair call - but I have ridden all the Mach series Kwakas and a waterbottle. Smelly, smokey, narrow......
Aargh, photos!
It did indeed, only after I did a 15ft jump when I wasnt even wanting to. I think the seat still has the crease from my arse clamp

I blame the Labour Government
the problem is they will be gone and we won't be able to pollute and songs like the crazy frog will never be produced again!!
hopefully the apprilla rs250 will stick around I still want to buy one of those as they are one of my dream bikes..
mmmmmm 70+ horsepower on a bike lighter than a 250 4 stroke I couldn't think of anything better except maybe two of them
From American dad :
American dads dad: Breaking into a safe is like making love to a woman
American dad: So you just pound on it for two minutes until your done?
The metal is always nude.
Funny how that they were developing and racing four-strokes in the '60s when everyone else was doing the 2-strokes. Then they conformed by going to the 2-strokes, now these are going, they're back to where they started !!

meh.
There is nothing quite like holding on to a 2-smoker going nuts in powerband for dear life. I need a bigger 2-smoker allready, nothing quite like it really...
Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.

I now know why you won't miss them!
I'm impressed that you still have all of your own limbs......

I grew up on an RM80 and had a few 250 road bikes.
They were FUN with a capital F.
And if run on the best oil, they smelt goooood.
I miss the old two stroke injection adrenalin buzz.

Try running a tiny amount of Castrol 'R' in your fuel tank.
