In today's story, we'll take a look at modern 2-stroke superbikes. These are simply two-stroke monsters of our day and they have everything, electronics, negligible weight and enormous power. Have a great mood and enjoy watching!

The last of the 2 strokes were making 400hp per liter N/A. Let that sink in.

@honestnestanderson Ай бұрын

honda rs250r claimed 118hp

@buildingracingvideos4714 Ай бұрын

@honestnestanderson yeah, I was referring to the 500s. I totally forgot about the smaller displacements being higher hp per liter than the 500s.

@@honestnestanderson geesus, that must have been one hell of a riot to ride something that light and nimble with that kind of power.

@francislutz8027 Ай бұрын

Kinda why they stopped racing them. They got too fast , the powerbands would snatch your soul from you in the middle of a turn unexpectedly. They were notorious for bucking riders off like a bull. All the greats from the 1980s/90s when interviewed tell of being terrified of the last of the 500cc 2 strokes. They were not forgiving at all.

@triumphbikerboy Ай бұрын

Valentino Rossi said that 500 cc 2 stroke was a bike that rarely you could put on full power in a race and because of that races wore more interesting and skills of pilot count much more.

@whyareyoureadingmyname5854 Ай бұрын

Check out the Crighton Cr700W. It's a rotary powered 4 stroke superbike but it sounds really good

@Indicant Ай бұрын

I'm guessing this is satire, 2T is literally half as efficient as 4T and a powerband as wide as a gnats chuff did not make for easy spirited riding.

@jordi6795 Ай бұрын

It's a pity the times we are living in, two strokes had been wrongly targeted for the sake of environmentalism when they account for an absolute insignificant fraction of polluting engines, this is an authentic shame, banning them made even more expensive the few bikes built, the very few small makers that had a chance to build some like the ones portrayed in the video (Ronax and Sutter) give a proper account of it due to an inexistent benefit of the industrial production. With current technological advancement and building methods, these kind of bikes should or could have a reasonable price similar to current superbikes. This is so sad...

@tonyciriello6872 Ай бұрын

Insignificant fraction is actually an understatement. You would have to use an M.I.T. super-computer to even estimate the carbon footprint of two stroke motorcycles. Its a bad joke. The modern snowmobile two strokes are dominating that sport. Yamaha went to all four strokes years ago and are now pulling out of snowmobiles. Sad.

My rd250 and rd350 are no where near the level of insanity V4 two stroke are able to achieve but watching vids like this definitely makes me want to hop on them and rip around town. Currently rebuilding a KX250 bottom/top end and so tempting to swap it into my 2021 KLX230 lol.

I wish someone would just make a 500cc or 600cc TWO cylinder with a pair of cylinders from a KTM enduro type bike like the KTM 300 XC-W. It'd have so much torque and you wouldnt have to rev to snot out of it all the time to get it to hustle. For the track ya sure 4 cyc is a better choice but for road use id rather have a torquey v-twin. Cheaper to own and rebuild as well and a much simpler bike to engineer. I have a stock RD400 and an a highly tuned RZ350... I always choose the RD400 because of the torque it has down low.. much more a pleasure to ride around town. The rz needs its nuts revved off to get it to go and that gets real old real fast when bombing around town.

There was work on a parallel twin DI 2-Stroke based on the RD / RZ 350 engine from Yamaha and bolted up into an Aprilia RS 250 frame. Not sure what happened to that but the Yammi engines with larger cylinders were doing quite well and DI variants were found in Dune Quad Racing back a few years. Love riding 2 Strokes - the 90's RGV250 was a hoot.👍
