2 Stroke VS 4 Stroke SIDE BY SIDE Comparison 50cc Motorized Bike

[@nickm4517]

I have built many 2 stroke and currently on my first 4 stoke build. 2 strokes and definitely budget friendly and tons of upgrades, but more maintenance and 2 strokes are LOUD. My 4stroke goes just as fast stock (35) and its quiet and smooth! My opinion. If you are looking to have fun buy a 2stroke but to get to work, get the 4stroke

[@midnightangel4129]

Same here.

[@jamesconner3437]

Same...I'm a senior with many years of small cycle experience, and now I live in a better-grade place where I don't want neighbors upset when I go out or come in really late or early...:)) Upgrade a 4-stroke just 5-7 mph is enough and still quiet.

[@tcmedialab]

I lost my license for a year and have decided to commute by bike to work. Problem is I'm 350 lbs and my area has a lot of hills. I've been doing alright and been losing a bit of weight but I defintely would like something to help me on these hills so I can go more places. Would the 4-stroke be better for me then?

[@kensmith4623]

@@tcmedialab hey i used to weigh close to that and ran a 2 stroke to work for a year. I think its down to maintenance preferences. If you can afford, a fat tire bike with a 44t or larger might make those hills smoother in my opinion.

"35" means mph or km/h?

Also with the 2 stroke, they love to be revved and I noticed you gave it little revs and let the clutch out way too fast when doing off the line. So learning how to better use a clutch would probably help the performance

[@williamsporing1500]

I was digging through all my bike stuff and found an old Indian frame I had. Put a 4 stroke on it. Fabbed up my own motor mounts. Only issue I had was the exhaust interfered with the frame. Easily solved by heating with the torch and bending it how I needed it. Started out with the stock 44 tooth sprocket, and the bike didn’t really have any legs. Changed to a 40t, better, but not quite. I’ve been running a 36 tooth and it does great. I really don’t want to be going over 35 on an over 100 year old frame. Matter of fact, I couldn’t keep those old rims tuned, so I put a set of worksman 11 guage spokes wheels on it. It’s great fun and I ride it to work every day, about 15 miles round trip. Now the weak links in both of these kits….. The rag joint. They’re ‘ok’ if you set them up right. Spend the money and get a hub adapter. The chain tensioners are garbage and dangerous. I’ve seen and heard of too many of them coming loose and ending up in the spokes. For the 2 strokes, they make a spring loaded one that fits on the gearbox. No such option for the 4 stroke. I found my best option was welding a Chevy small block alternator bracket between the seat stay and chain stay. Strong, cheap and looks better. I’ll be looking into a torque converter or a sun clutch soon because the centrifugal clutches are the weak link on the 4 strokes. Great video. Just remember everybody, ride like you’re invisible, because you are.

[@robertpersall98]

Thanks for this! I am partial to 4 stroke, mainly because I like the sound and no mixing fuel. Maintenance is also a factor. The cost is worth it to me. Again, thank you!

If you have a smaller bike, go for the 2 stroke though. It will fit better

[@barrykrajeski5598]

I love my 4 so far just make sure you get the good motor mount the one that came in the kit was crap and still had to do a bunch of grinding on the mount to get every bit I could to fit the bigger motor but well worth it.Plan on doing another kinda fun for a 64 old retired.

[@dmoore0079]

One option that's often overlooked is the BT80 (bullet train), which is an electric start 70CC 2 stroke with a 12V battery, oil bath clutch, and a charging system. Not only are they a bit more powerful than the 49cc motors, but have a full electrical system to wire up a headlight, turn signals, brake light, electronic speedometer/tach, etc. Lots and lots of possibilities there.

Excellent comparison for the 2 vs 4 stroke engines. They both have their advantages and disadvantages. I have been building Motorized Bikes ( AutoCycles) for six and half years and have 5 in my garage and working on the sixth one now (to be completed , tomorrow, Sunday 26th)., with a further two in my lockup. They range from the two old ones, Humber Cycles, to 3x 66cc 2 Strokes, one 43cc Weedeater ( weedwacker in your part of the world) in a folding commuter cycle. Two 4 strokes, one 39cc and the other 49cc same as your engine. The 39cc is side mounted on the left side at axle height.

nice, this was one best videos of 2/4-stroke motors that i have seen. 4stroke seems to be better chose even if it cost more.

[@Farmtractor]

It’s not, valves need adjustment as soon as you run it for 5 hours, centrifugal clutch wears out crazy fast, gears in transmission often grind after wear, gear shaft splines shims off after a while, both aren’t the best but 2 stroke has a mechanical clutch which means you control it better. I’ve owned both bikes.

[@shroomzgames7370]

@@Farmtractor i only find valves need sorted that quickly if you keep the engine high rpm for any extended period of time, which for these bikes is a problem due to a single gear, you can lesson valve problem through gearing but will loose most the torque just to get a suitable cruising rpm on the 4-stroke, i've put 100+ hours on these engines and not needed the valve clearances sorted. I dont find the clutches to bad either, you would spend more on 2-stroke oil than you would clutches for the life of the engine, just the hassle of having to swap them out every couple of months. But weight has a major factor in this, if your a bigger person expect to do triple the maintenance on these parts, same for weight of bike, tires, and terrain you use it on.

[@arild1535]

trust me 2 stroke is the way to go in these small bicycle engines, two stroke has way more performance potential on the same cylinder size compared to fourstroke

[@AtemiRaven]

4 stroke overall are just better. They have a bit less torque so they suffer a bit on inclines, but more overall power allowing faster flat speed. Also the fact you don't have to mix oil in with your fuel means it is cheaper to run. It has a less grating sound as well, I have always found 2-stroke motors to be extremely annoying.

[@peterpemrich6962]

@@Farmtractor your explanation helps my decision much more. What brand kit should I get

[@joeMW284]

the only REAL performance mod I've found on the 4 stroke is replacing the stock carb with the 2-stroke NT carb. Picked up a few MPH and better midrange power. The stock box muffler (on the huasheng) isn't as bad as everyone makes it out to be. The carb is the bottleneck.

[@derekpirie9188]

Just earlier this week i changed the stock carb on my 49cc OHV 4stroke Hauseng to the NT carb. The easiest fit as i has the cast inlet matched the port in the head. As the carb dimensions matched, the engine ran rich ( 4stroked). The NT is set for 66cc. I dropped the needle, top notch, and the engine ran smooth. Better idle and crisp right through the rev range.

[@seriouscyrus33]

Read a few articles on this subject, each one said the 4 stroke can run longer than the 2 stroke for about an hour or so and the 2 stroke for about 30 minutes before over heating. If you have the budget to mod, 2 stroke. I prefer 4 stroke, regular gasoline and longevity is the deal breaker.

What exhaust do you recommend?

[@Sebi076]

There's much more upgrades you can do with both engines, especially the 4 stroke to make it better. Other than simple upgrades such as the carb or exhaust, if you put the work into it you can do the insides of the engine as well and make it preform much better. That applies for both engines. Also the sprockets can be upgraded to a adapter clamp and can be adjusted to make sizes.

[@adamwoodward2003]

When it comes to small engines like this, I think the 2-stroke is the best option. Less complexity (no valves, cams etc) and a single cylinder 2-stroke engine will run smoother than a single cylinder 4-stroke as there are more power strokes per rotation of the engine. They also make more power for given displacement again because of more frequent power strokes.

[@tauncfester3022]

Oh! YT comments about motorized bikes Well the 2 stroke's instruction sheet always says to install the engine on a "V" framed bike for best fitment. It pretty much locks the engine in place which you can't say about the cruiser frame. Also that 4 stroke gearbox is 3.2:1 gearing versus the 4.11:1 on the reduction on the 50cc 2 stroke. Fairly big difference in how either bike will climb hills You would be better to buy a 54T sprocket for the 4stroke to even this reduction ratio. Also note that the "5G" type Glimer belt transmission on the better quality 4 strokes last longer. All of the 2 strokes have eccentric output sprockets and I noticed the 2 stroke in this video was 'warbling" because of that off center sprocket. This has been an issue with the 2 strokes for years, it's what eventually damages the left side spokes through the rubber clamping ring rag-joint. The 2 strokes also benefit from a smaller main jet and running 32:1 fuel : oil. Remember to grease your primary gears every 300 miles or so..

[@chrisyarbrough1973]

You forgot to mention you have to check the oil every 10 hours on the four stroke and that little stock transmission that comes with it yet to do an upgrade yes it goes 30 miles an hour but you will bring that up after less than a hundred miles as I did with mine. That little transmission on the 4-stroke is not made for Hills just flat ground and a two-stroke has good for no matter what if you put a smaller sprocket on the back like a 32 tooth you don't have no takeoff power but you will have lots of upper in power for Speed

10 hours break in period, 50 hours afterwards. That's more like my scooter with what look like a copy of a Honda gx25 brush cutter engine.

[@BernieWojtkowiak]

Could you put the link of where you got the 4 stroke at? Please

[@derekrobinson2287]

What kind of bikes are these? I really like the look of them!!!

[@SouthernCustomCC]

These are the Hyper Bike Co. beach cruiser.They are my favorite to build with, personally. They haven't sold them for close to 1 year now. Maybe they will bring them back. Santa Cruz bike Co. has a similar frame, but much more expensive.

[@joeyd.589]

Love ur video. No bs, right to the point

[@marcs4091]

Almost not comparing Apples to Apples because the four stroke transmission is geared so high. With a 44 tooth sprocket they have no of hill climbing power whatsoever. But should do 35 on flat ground. Also that's a pretty nice engine mounting bracket for a generic kit.

[@user-dn6qy1ou1f]

Awesome video. But...you can step it up like I did. Got a similar bike from my in-laws. Got the 212 predator engine, torque converter, and a stage 1 kit. After some reinforcement at the welds, it does very very well for a few hundred bucks!

[@SouthernCustomCC]

Nice! Careful though....its not called a death row set up for no reason! I hope you have a lot of fun! Be safe, and thanks for watching!

[@Alejandro-xd1pf]

Gatta say, the 2-stoke sounds more fun. They both seem to perform about the same.

[@49684]

I like this idea better then my moped. 😊💪👊

[@andrewconde]

I had a GX35 4 stroke grass cutter engine bought it from the junkyard

[@JohnSmith-pn1kq]

What about travel distance? How many miles will they go on a tank of gas?

[@zackschilling5154]

I bought a 2 stroke 80cc thinking that I would get better power but go the same results as you but I’m 60lbs heavier and I put the kit on a 24 inch tire bike if i were to do it over again I would do it on a 26” bicycle and gotten the four stroke I got the two stroke to save money but by the time I upgraded all the bad kit parts I paid more than what I would have if I got a four stroke and the carb needs to be cleaned Once a month or it gets stuck both on stock and upgraded carbs

[@xthe_moonx]

u dont think changing exhaust on 4 stroke is easy upgrade as well?

[@FuturisticPast1515]

I have a question can you use this on a bike with coaster brakes

[@atmosrepair]

With 4 stroke I like the idea of being able to stop at gas station and fill up without carrying oil around.

[@SouthernCustomCC]

That is DEFINITELY a huge benefit for a lot of riders.

[@jamesjones6347]

Great video! what is your personal favorite between the two?

[@frankopenbrier2742]

I would like to see you all out power outing straight up hills uphill climbing steep same CC same sprocket big that would be killer.

[@Mr.Scootini]

Not sure if this applies to motor bikes but on old 2stroke motorcycles and dirt bikes you usually get non-synthetic oil with 2stroke additives. Non-synthetic makes for a cleaner burn, as in 2strokes need to burn its oil. Also fun fact: rotary’s (wankle rotary) are technically 2strokes

[@thisone3519]

Name of the music in the background?

[@shorty48shorty]

please tell a location that that has a pull up pump that is non ethanol? .... pretty sure all pumps have some ethanol and up to 10 or 15% in summer months..... farm fuel is bulk order, not at pumps and has been for a good while....

[@joshuawilcox1322]

How did you get the brakes to work with the sprocket? I tried on the Hyper and the brakes wouldn't work too well and when you pressed harder they kicked the pedals ..

[@SPMPchannel]

Superb video.. How far can you travel with those motors without having them to break or over heat?

[@SouthernCustomCC]

Thx. With a 2 stroke, the answer varies because not everyone rides like they should and not everyone has the same gas mixture. If you have less oil in your gas mixture (like a 40:1) then your engine gets hotter a lot quicker and burns itself down much quicker as well because there is not a lot of oil in the gas to help cool and indicate your internals. So that answer could be anywhere from 7-25 miles before a cool down is needed. With a 4 stroke, you can go a lot further because the oil and lubrication is separate and the engine temperature can be regulated better. I have never had to stop before reaching a destination with a 4 stroke; so I can't give a specific milage on that. Yet, if you red line your engine for miles and miles with either engine, of course you won't be able to go as far as if you were just cruising at a steady RPM. Cruising is key for temperature regulation. Thanks for watching, and I hope you come back and check out the channel more in the future! Happy riding ✌️

[@nickhersheys2706]

20 miles max for a 2 stroke and 50 miles for a 4 stroke

[@ghettobikelife8833]

The engine temp will stabilize after around 10 mins it won’t keep getting hotter forever.. so no limit

[@user-lm8fx6kc1b]

The 2stk has no fan cooling system, (cooling fins on cylinder, head are too small), it relies on free air flow, runs hot, looses power soon, the 4stk has a fan cooling system, much better.

[@tauncfester3022]

Actually using the recommended 20:1 will cause the engine to overheat as you run the fuel mixture too lean. 32:1 is what most forum experts recommend, but you should also look into playing around with the main jet setting as sometimes the engines are far too rich in main jet mixture. The NT carbs needs careful float level setting and adjusting the circlip on the needle valve.

[@alexanderson5749]

Wow the 4 stroak sounds so dull compared to the 2 stroak but I am sorta bias for 2 stroak because I have just brought one

[@doggfriendly]

Are the crank arms shorter on the one bike or is that just me

[@123edwardzpad]

Thank you.

[@andonigarcia9249]

Nice builds! Is a 49 cc 4 stroke good enough to also carry a passenger? Lmk any recommendations plz!🙏

[@SouthernCustomCC]

I'd personally not want to put that much weight on a bike and I'd personally not want to stress that small of an engine. The yd100 might be better equipped for the torque you'd need, but a standard bike would need some upgraded parts.

[@phillipmcconnell207]

My 2 stroke has a rod knock sometimes 😅

[@conner5611]

Could be pre ignition since 2 strokes have a ball n Bearing crank there is no way a 2 stroke will have rod knock

[@nothanks2994]

@@conner5611 was just about to say that or the crank bearing is bad

[@phillipmcconnell207]

snattle rake just figured that out the other day. Since then problem has been fixed.

[@mattfiori1020]

did the hyper cruiser come with a 3 piece crank assembly or was it a one piece?

[@niklastuhkanen5835]

We know already that 2 stroke wins but it will be fun to see how much better is a 2stroke

[@axi0n386]

Hello do you have a link for the bike that you used?
