Two Strokes Rule!

I’ve been riding my YZ250 2-Stroke since late 2007. Prior to that I’d been riding 4-Strokes since I was in my teens. I really liked my WR450. It was super plush but its weight was not a good thing in the technical or really tight stuff. The YZ250F I had was an awesome bike with great handling and excellent suspension but it really lacked the power I needed to keep a good pace at my age. The YZ250 ringer fits right in between those two bikes mentioned above and thus it has become my favorite steed in the stable.

The other cool thing about the 2-Stroke is how easy it is keep quite. Add a nice spark arrestor/silencer combo and you’re good to go. It adds low end and keeps the neighbors happy!

On top of that, they are easy to maintain year after year. A top end job is cheap and if you change your oil regularly and keep the air filter clean it’ll extend the period between major servicing. My 2005 is in just as good mechanical condition as my 2007. Both are solid bikes and will last for years to come.

A friend picked up a prime mount a few months ago. It is a mint-condition Suzuki RMX250. I really wanted one of those back in the day, but I was in my “4-stroke mode” at the time and riding atop an XR600. I had an opportunity to ride the RMX and let me tell you it is sweet! It seemed like one of those bikes you could ride all day long. Great comfort, awesome handing, plush suspension, and all the power you’d need.

You could go out and buy a brand new KTM or other brand of 2-Stroke but if you can find a good used 2-Stroke grab it. You can get it going for less dough but be assured of some great riding. I know the last CR and KX 2-Strokes were solid bikes and now I know the RM(X) was just as good!

Back to the start . . . 2-Strokes do rule! I’m pleased with my encounters with many brands over the past few years but in the end, their ringers (if they make them anymore) are my favorites!

I’ll leave you with this series of photos that clearly shows one racer’s bike trying to mate with another. Luckily the attempt was unsuccessful. I can’t imagine what the offspring of a 2012 Gas Gas and a 1998 RMX would look like!
