They sound very good together, the 4 strokes alone are cool, 2 strokes alone are cool too, but combined they sound amazing

[@JefersonRibeiro2007]

"At the 2002 Dutch GP, I had a two-stroke bike, and I already had the four-stroke bike at the time. It was one of the best races I've ever had in my life. I could even visualize in my head the way the tires were working on some high-speed corners. It seems like the fusion with the bike is so big but so big it's unbelievable. And I took everything off the bike 100%, I missed nothing. The race was fantastic. Valentino Rossi called me in the corner and said I had never seen anyone ride a two-stroke motorcycle like me that day. "What you did was amazing. I learned a lot from you today. And I just won because I really have a motorcycle that it's much better, 'he said. " *** Alex Barros, interview - warmup magazine, 2013" ***
