Will Arnold Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 hey, just wondering why they use 4 stroke engines over 2 stroke engines? how different does it make the bike feel?nice bike ben, even if it does have an engine! looks like good fun!Will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrylumley Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 4 stroke has much more torque, so the engine doesnt rev as high as a 2 stroke and can put the power down much better by the engine sounding bopbop instead of bing bing.this means the back tyre is less likely to spin.thats all ino really!Harry!

Token Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 Your right Mr Arnold, 2 strokes in theory put out twice as much power. The only benefit of having a 4 stroke that I can see, is that it'll last alot longer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robster Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Ben if you stick a chair on that I will show how a trials bike should be ridden.You would be taking on Luscome and the likes.Sweet looking machine though.If a thumper goes pop you are into BIG money, whereas you can fix a stroker just about anywhere with a 10, 12, 13, mm spanner and a 5 and 6 mm allen key. You pay your brass and takes your chances. Two stroke all the way for me, but thats what i grew up on and old habbits die hard but it will be a beast of a bike. Enjoy it Ben, this will be last we see of you now thats for sure.JP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 looks beut but i wonder how you people afford such an expensive sport and one of those bikes must set you back a good 2000+ also out of interest whats the weight like?
