Why oh why are we getting into BRAND names (who gives a rats about specific BRAND names) remember 2S v 4S 2S v 4S but just maybe you get what you pay for, initial cost is really irrelvant in the overall scheme of things (this is reality) but don't have to pay thru the nose down the track etc etcOriginally Posted by Reel Hard
Cheers, Kerry.
2S vs 4S, but there are big differences obv that the 2 strokes the vast majority have dont come anywhere close to what a 4 stroke can achieve fuel wise or emission wise, so we are comparing a small amount of 2 strokes that bugger all have or want as they want the cheaper ones that burn more fuel... so where does this leave the older 2 strokes so many are happy with regards the epa standards. ??? or have i missed a point somewhere.

Fine, but....
Dont get confused then,but dont put 4 stroke EFI in the same sentence of the lack of punch/power and rougher 4 stroke carby bracket. There is a big difference.
Only jesting, but seriously, to me it looks like this (have not researched dates/history etc, so I'm sure I'll be corrected by people with nothing better to do)
2strokes - Been around for donkeys (Noah probably had one as an aux on the ark)
along comes Mr Gov
Mr Gov - "TOO MUCH POLUTION - PLEASE FIX"
Mr 4 st - "Is that better"
Mr Gov - "YES MUCH BETTER THANKS"
Mr Public - "But wheres my power gone?"
Mr FICHT 2 st - "How bout this?"
Mr 4 st - "HA HA HA"
Mr public - "HA HA HA"
Mr E- Tec 2 st - "How bout this then?"
Mr 4 st (with frown)- "ooooohhhh"
Mr Gov - "excellent"
Mr Public - "excellent"
Mr EFI 4 st - "How bout this then?"
Mr Public - "excellent too"
And note that Mr Public said "excellent too" regarding 4 st's latest offering. He thinks both motors are excellent, very much on par.
Cheers - Paul

Reminds me of some "useless infomation" (just grin and bear the terminology....And note that Mr Public said "excellent too" regarding 4 st's latest offering. He thinks both motors are excellent, very much on par....I heard the other day
The US spent a million bucks just to develop a pen that would write in zero gravity, upside down in space and all that sort of stuff
The Russianswell they used a pencil.
There's something in all of this that says Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS)
Cheers, Kerry.
Yep all above
Well Mack it would appear that the emmision thingie is a non event anymore, one could also ask how many cars are running around our roads that shouldn't be burning ULP or PULP or for that matter any petrol at all
Don't won't to divergebut that wasn't their problem, their response was , well they are just going to have to design one aren't they, yeah right, design one [smiley=lost.gif]
Ah yeah EPA standards many do forget that 4S's do have oil
