Hi Guys,
I've been looking to save on gas. A motorized bike seems like a great way. My uses will be as follows:
5 days a week to work (18 mile round trip).
I've been browsing websites for engines and would love a 4 stroke engine . . . but will have to get a 2 stroke because of cost. 4 strokes seem to cost almost twice as much as 2 strokes. Thatsdax has been recommended thoughout this forum . . . . and will probably buy from Duane.
My question: If I'm reasonable about wear and tear on the engine, will a 2 stroke be suitable for my needs? Or will I wind up eventually buying a 4 stroke for it's reliability and, ultimately, "buy twice"? Total miles per week will be about 90.
I'm looking for an engine I can maintain and keep running in good order without major issue.
Thanks in advance for your ideas and help.
Steve
