I Prefer Four Strokes

I'm really a fan of both bikes for different reasons. 4 strokes, I find ride better and can go over different terrain which is good for the way I ride. Also my 4 stroke is quieter so I can ride around campgrounds with out pissing off people. I am willing to sacrifice 10 pounds for these benefits.

Also when you say 2 strokes are way cheaper to maintain? I'm going to have to disagree, my 06 250R barely needs maintenance other than oils, filter etc. 2 strokes need new pistons a lot more than four strokes and, above 2004 the valves really aren't a problem (in CRF's at least).

But really great article I enjoyed reading it.
