    It’s a 4 stroke 250 but 2 stroke 125 ollie. I spoke with them about it before I bought mine but I don’t think they’ll import any 250 4ts over unless you order it especially. At least that’s what they told me.

    I wonder what the hold up is? Manufacturers have been using fuel injected two strokes in boat engines for a while now so why not bikes?

    They are making to much money out of 4 strokes, well the japs are at least. I believe the Euro’s would be pushing for the 2 stroke resurgence but the Japs have conspired with the Governing bodies to continue with the 4ts. My opinion only ;) I think rotax have made a FI 660 cc 2 stroke for a snowmobile and it is a pearler,guess we will have to wait and see.

    Every year, somebody says the FI 2T will be here next year. Still waiting, and as said before I can’t really see why.

    Even on 4T how long did road bikes have it before dirt bikes. Not that you could say it is common place for even 4T dirt bikes yet.

    Aprilia have been running the Ditech 50cc 2t fuel injeted motor for years. Good for 90-95km/hr or up to 100-105 km/hr with a bit of tweeking.

    Nice spot there Toby B)

    I havnt fully read the article but this part here made for good reading http://www.speed-sports.com/motorscooters/scooter_models/aprilia_scooters/ditech.html

    I saw an Aprillia 125 2 stroke at the Cessnock six day in 92 and although not injected then it sure was a rocket ship :woohoo: The writings on the wall,just have to get the manufacturers into the swing of things,very interesting indeed.

    Yeah Ollie and Elvis is alive, we didnt go to the moon blah blah blah

    Dont you think the performance of the Yamaha 400F that Doug Henry rode when it first exploded on the AMA race and won everything then sold millions, then every other manufacturer went with the demand. With these high stress four strokes engines came the cost of having one that is turning people away. Four strokes and two strokes will always be here and the debate will rage on forever each have a following as much as each has an area where they will be better then the other

    The green moved world wide is so powerful you only have to work in the industry I do to know how they are controlling governments to understand why the smelly smokey two strokes of yesteryear had to clean their act up. Its been good for the sport I think

    ELVIS IS NOT DEAD!! he has just left the building :laugh: elvis-1.jpg

    I agree that the 2 strokes had to clean up their act on their emissions,but in reality what produces more bad sh#t in construction a simple 2T or a highly complicated F1 type 4T? I hope that in the future the manufacturers make a bike that the people want,not one that is controlled by their greed.The performance from these new generation 2 strokes is outstanding and I do hope the Green movement pushes for more efficient engines,this will put pressure on the manufacturers to produce fuel efficient low emmission(both in manufacture and use)low cost vehicles. Perhaps one day the humble family car will be a 2 stroke :woohoo:

    TB after fully reading the Tech article I found that Orbital are one of the partners with Aprillia. Good ol Aussie ingenuity at the fore,shame he couldnt get any Australian backing as is the Norm :angry:

    Maybe after the Bomoto fiasco no-one is willing to be the first and cop any criticism and brand association. let’s face it the technology has been there for donkeys’ but no-one will step up.

    We talk about it and make our demands vocal and maybe it will be sooner rather than later.

    And all you manufacturers out there, I’m still waiting for my anti-gravity shoes they said would be around by the time I was an adult, this was a given, all the cartoons said so when I was 6. So get cracking you “measured release for profit” third world exploiting greedy capatalist oinkers, I want at least fuel injected 2T dirtbikes by next year
