CR dirtbikes used to be 2 stroke.

Also the NSR used to be 2 stroke. Nowadays the 4 strokes are priducing more power... The YZ for example is offered only in 4 stroke in 2003.

Are you talking in the U.S. or just in general?

Are you nuts? the ONLY reason the 4strokes are becoming more popular in the dirtbike arena is because of the EPA.
2 strokes will produce more power per cc than any 4 stroke, end of story.
As a matter of fact they are going to be racing the 250cc 2 strokes with the 600cc 4 strokes this year. A 600cc 4 stroke only makes slightly more wheel HP than a 2 stroke motor less than half its size. The 250s are substantially lighter due to the motor, so they are more than competitive.

he might have meant that the 4-strokes are producing more power nowadays than they did before. which i tend to agree with. but, no, not more power than an eqivalent 2-stroke.

i understand that 4-strokes have a more user friendly power band and therefore better suited to the recreational riders. 2-strokes seem to be much more on/off with the throttle and thats it.

Reliability/powertrain life and ease of maintenance (lubricant in fuel). Also emissions.

Very light weight, simple powerplants.
Easy to work on. (ie: install new cylinders/pistons/rings in 1/2 hour).
Sheer fun factor. Breakneck acceleration.

The CR is still a 2-stroke

The CRF is a 4-stroke

Same with the YZ's

2 strokes are so friendly on tires. I hate replacing my tires after every track day it almost makes me want to trade in my f4i race bike for a nsr.

Are you talking about the 1982 MB-5? It's a 50cc bike (not a scooter) with a 10,500 redline. I hear they were pretty fast for the size, and since they were only made for one year they are definatly collecters items now. Here is a link to some pics if you are interested:

2-stroke hondas (excluding scooters)

CR50,125,250
CRM250
CRM50
CRM250AR
NS-1
NSR50
NSR150
NSR250 (R, SE, SP)
NS400R
NS250R
NS50R
NSRmini
NSR500V
RS125
RS250

there are prob more, but cant remember right now

2-stroke will make more power than a 4-stroke with the same displacement
its less parts, easier maintenance, but harder tuning, and strict on 2-stroke oil
it usually requires more maintenance, and the throttle control is harder due to the powerband (usually starts at around 7000rpm to about 11k, 12k,13k, depending on the bike)

I hope you aren't talking about the YZ 250 mx bike, if you are then you are wrong.
