But yes, those do exist. Personally, I think it would be easier to cast one large block that can accept four Panthera heads, connected by one crank that has each piston firing 90 degrees off of one another than it would be to put a cam, pushrods, modified ports at the bottom for the cylinder intake, and positive displacement blower on the engine.

There is virtue in the simplicity of singles. Making multiple cylinders agree harmoniously adds complexity, but modern sensors and microprocessors would help immensely. It might make more sense to lose the transmission and counter-balancer and make it into a twin piston, single-cylinder hybrid ICE/electric, continuous-torque powertrain. Instead of mating the pistons mechanically, they could be coupled electrically with their own generators which could be used to manipulate piston speeds during each stroke and throughout the rev range.

CR500 powerband is really tame it's not like a 250 that wants to throw you off the back. The 500 produces so much torque and power low down when it comes in to the band its not so noticeable. The CR500 feels a bit like a 4 stroke with a mild powerband.

Do you offer this engine platform in 250cc?

Many drivers are struggling to bridge the price gap of switch over to a newer 4 stroke engine, that's been properly race prepped to run M1 methanol. And thats not to mention a variety of other changes that have to be done as well to accommodate the larger 4 stroke. A lot of the drivers just prefer a 2 stroke. 🤷

I could see this more for use in bikes or quads for desert use. The mx future development is the 350 four stroke which will edge out the 300cc 2 stroke in the high reving hp. Many mxers are faster riding them full out vs trying to control 450's. I think there has been alot of door knocking to Japanese manufacturers who are getting lots of feedback on that. However, a torquey and high reving 350 to 400cc 2 stroke would be more usuable power for more riding types, with kit options to Fuel Inject an originaly carbureted bike and a 6 speed transmission is preferred by off roaders.

[@vihreelinja4743]
