2 stroke VS 4 stroke?

jesse54 — GMT

Would there be a difference for freestly in which one would be better? also, do you have to premix the fuel for a 4stroke? and does anyone know if a 4 stroke would weigh anymore than a 2 stroke? im pretty sure it wouldnt but im not sure.

2 strokes 4 strokes have massive engine brake (the engine slows it self down when you let go of the gas) and in the air, that would cause you to nose dive and no you dont have to mix gas for 4 strokes, but since you dont know how todo that, i would not reccomend a 4 stroke, they are very complex and harder to work on, 2 strokes are easier and simple, but even to you will be very hard to work on get a 2 stroke, the manual, and learn how to ride very well befor you go and try your best travis pastrana impersonation and break your neck (like a year or 2)

Jesse i don't think either is right for you, if you don't even know about mixing gas for a bike, you shouldn't be riding one. 2 or 4 your gonna have problems, maybe you should look into a nice bicycle. if you want to see dirtbikes, people like you should just watch on espn.

Your a retard. First off, Iv been riding since for 5 years now. I do some of my own work on bikes, so i probably know more than you little priss city riders. Also, I just started jumping at a newly built ramp, and it took me about 5 minutes before i could do no footers, one footers, one handers , lookbacks and i almost did a knack knack. This is probably as much a s you would learn in your whole life so eat my ass.

who's the idiot

I think your the dumb one. You backwoods country trash. First you can't spell, it's called a nac nac. And as far as working on bikes, i have a full machine shop in a big garage at my house in the city. I build 2 stroke motors, repairs or mods. So when you say you work on your bike, meaning you change your spark plug, you don't know as much as you think.

yeah who are you trying to impress here buddy?

WOW! This turned out well. I was just going to mention that a couple weeks ago I was talking with Mike Metzger at the Xtremy awards, while they were showing footage of him back-flipping a 450F. He say's the four stroke works great for freestyle, and he really likes it. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, and didn't hear it right from Metz himself, I would never have believed it.

First of all, we were all new at one point. Next, it is never too late to learn. So don't say he should watch it on tv, because you didn't know that stuff when you started. So just give him a chance

Its getting just u bit too hot in here. as for weights CRF 250 92.5 kg CR250 96.6 kg i think that most of u use lb so it wont mean much to u but ne ways i think they mostly use 2 strokes because they are a bit better on the landings and they use power band on the up ramp and 4 strokes dont have power band so yea

evergreenterrace2008 — GMT

I think all bikes both 2 and 4-stroke have a powerband, just 2-strokes have a "powerband hit". Sorry I just had to say that as I never understood the whole powerband idea until like a month ago there was a thread on this.

and you said you have ridden 5 years? and you dont no if you gotta mix gas on a 4 stroke and you dont no if they weight more or not. i think you were riding with your head in your a$$

You can do tricks on a 4-stroke but I wouldn't reccomend it.

If i were you i would go with a 2 stroke. im on a 250f right now trying freestyle, and i think i might go buy a yz250. Its a great bike, and i love it, its just not great for freestyle yet. Give them time, and i bet we see 4 strokers freestylin big in the future.

mAlfunkti0n — GMT

I would say go with the 2 stroke, as thats what 99% of those guys are on. But then I would also say, you sound like you have no clue about riding a bike, so dont even try anything like this stuff. Get some ride time and work your way up. Also, been riding for 5 years and you had to ask the mix question? I dont think so, sorry.

Even 6 year olds who have never even touched a bike could know oil is mixed in the gas can when putting it into the weedwacker or something ya know lol He's definitely not been riding for 5 years

Mateo89 — GMT

wait, jessic, im not trying to start anything but if youve been riding for 5 years shouldnt you know that a four stroke weighs more then a 2 stroke? just wondering

OK to get the records straight It IS spelled nacnac it's cancan spelled backwards. @ leave the kid alone, it was kind of a dumb remark but I remember asking questions like that when I was younger. And not to sound like a d!(k but I'm a pro fmx rider. I used to say 2 stroke all the way but the 4 banger has come a long way. Guy's are doing flip TRICKS with them. It's all preffrence now. I still prefer a 2. About the riding 4 5 years and not knowing about wich you have 2 premix I also call BS. Or you never got close to a 4 stroke in your life, wich is rare do to the fact lawnmowers are 4 strokes. You guy's need to chill. It was a simple newbi question. I hope I don't make anyone mad. Just calling it like I see it.

hey jesse ur a biaaatcchhh any idot can work on their bike and do a no footer and one hander and learn how to spell nac nac dumbass. eat shit

hgsuzuki — GMT

Im not a "freestyler" but i do muck around a bit with jumping at the local track and mates private tracks. i hopped off a 125 onto a rmz450 in january this year. in regards to which i prefer, the 450 hands down. Apart from leaving a bit of trailing/not shutting off the throttle, the 450 whips better, and it seems to me you don't need to be as focused on the jump as much as you do on a 125. So, if you have the choice and i was in your position, definatly a fourstroke. But then you MAY have issues with engine work sooner or later which is big $$.

lotta drama...but i hafta agree with crf250r

4-strokes have power band from the second you turn the throttle i reckon you could use 4-Strokes and 2-Strokes in FMX theres an FMX team here in Melbourne called Empire Freestyle team and they ride 2-strokes and 4-strokes so its possable that professional FMX could start riding both machines

I prefer the 2's over 4's mainly i only basicly have been riding 2's and theier pwerban just takes off that jump like nothing.

Could'nt have been more wrong. Every engine has a power band 4 stroke or 2 stroke. Power band describes the power delivery. Not some majic rubber band.
