2 strokes compress the fuel/oil / air mixture in the crankcase and forces it up the transfer ports into the combustion chamber where the fuel/oil/air mixture gets compressed again before it fires ...we call this effect supercharging...when the piston travels fast enough is when the powerband begins ...the expansion chamber reverses the sound wave from the exhaust fire and blocks the supercharged intake from escaping out the exhaust port ...thats when she comes "on the pipe " and horsepower goes off the charts this is why a four stroke doesn't stand a chance as 4 strokes can only suck bang and blow ..when 2 stroke go braap they are making boost

I remember when Honda released their first CRF250 and 450 4 strokes. Good friend of mine, since retired, was a Honda and KTM dealer. I went down to his shop one day and observed several blown motors sitting on the work table. And these bikes had only been.out for a couple months..!! When I saw that the pistons looked like a hocky puck and those motors had to Rev like hell to make power then I knew those bikes were not ever going to be on my list to own one. And I also thought the engineers that designed those short stroke extremely high RPM joke stroke screamers need their heads examined. I will stick with my carbed 300 2 stroke. Just keeps going.

Keep in mind, the story you are speaking of was 20 years ago. They are fuel injected and shouldn’t be compared to the carbed 4 strokes of the 2000s. It was only a few years after that story of yours that Honda released some of their best chassis to date and many bikes to date were inspired by the feel of it.

I'm %100 a two stroke guy but there's no argument that four strokes put down faster and more consistent lap times on a track. As an amateur just riding in the woods for fun two stroke is the way to go because of ease of maintenance and lower cost of maintenance. I currently own a 23 Husky TE300 TPI (favorite bike i've ever owned) and yes the initial purchase price was expensive but the bike has been just as easy and cheap to maintain as a carb bike (except for the added cost of oil pump and potential sensors). Plus I think riding two strokes is just more fun!

@@eddalton8530 Outside of motorcycles engine manufacturers have developed DFI and EFI 2 strokes for decades in aviation and marine propulsion. Ultimately ending with similar results of losing to more efficient 4 strokes. Despite these DFI 2 strokes having a weight advantage, less moving parts, and matching 4 strokes in emissions output. They couldn’t come close to the fuel efficiency of equally powered 4 strokes and that outweighed the other benefits. Thankfully KTM keeps developing 2 strokes and these new EFI bikes are the best 2 stroke bikes to date. But until the AMA increases the engine size allowed for 2 strokes there will always be a gap.

@@eddalton8530 There’s no denying that a 400+cc EFI smoker would destroy the 4 strokes. Unfortunately 20 years ago the ama determined 4 strokes require double the engine size to compete.

I absolutely love a 4 stroke in terms of dual sport and commuting while being slow to go off road. But only when talking about a WR250R. My valve check is at 27,000 miles. My bike is a 2008 and they still don’t need to be checked. A 4 stroke dirt bike is stupid expensive to maintain. A 2 stroke is super simple and relatively cheap to maintain without many special tools or need for a shop.

Four strokes have ruined racing. They maybe easier to ride and have better traction but that is it. They are more expensive. In the pro ranks easier to ride is worse for the spectators. There are less mistakes which makes for boring races. Also faster means more injuries for the riders. The AMA made the biggest mistake ever when they let 450cc four strokes race against 250cc two strokes. It should be stroke for stroke, but if they did that four strokes would not have taken off.

Jay, you should try a head from Kelsey at RK TEK, the increase in low end is amazing and makes the bike easier to ride especially on trails, it allows you to ride everything a gear higher, lower rpm means better traction, more control, if you need more power just roll on the gas, best 2 stroke engine mod you can do for the money, most head mods for trail riding don't do much if anything but this one you can actually feel the improvement.

No plans to motocross or any racing. I’d like to go on long rides through the desert or woods and explore. I’m starting to lean now towards the 23 300xc, Or xc-w. Your thoughts on a 23 KTM as a first bike to build skills on. I’m 41 and 6’2 210. Fun is ideal, but smooth power, and good suspension, I think riding a crazy bronco would be fun for 10 minutes, but I wouldn’t seek it out daily.

Got a '99 KX250, still a great bike though. Vibrates the fillings out of your teeth, but that adds to overall feel, it's visceral. And for a 25 year old bike, it still goes like a stabbed rat, and I sure as hell ain't skilled enough to use it to its fullest potential.

Two strokes are faster, lighter, and just all around better. Also they attract chicks so if you want to attract dudes ride a four stroke.

2 stroke seems to do the opposite to me, 2 stroke wears me out faster. Could be the suspension, not sure.

It is the speed at which terrain is coming at you. 4 stroke heavier but smoother. 2 stroke racer never breaks sweat on 4 stroke cause it is not moving as fast or as ferociously. 4 stroke is cruiser

2T wears me out even when compared to a heavier 4T....ram's. 4T power on single track is what I like, but I do not like the stall factor on a 4T at low rpm's.
