Well..I finally got my son to ride his 2 stroke and I jumped on the New 4 Stroke . Earlier today I installed a 36T to give my 4 stroke more top end. It has plenty of low end. So...We pulled out the bikes...Warmed them up...and ran head to head from a dead stop. 5 times we ran head to head for around 1/8 mile drags from a dead stop...Here are the results
The 2 stroke pulls harder and has more top speed. I figured the 4 stroke would win on top end...Because of the 36T. I was very surprised to see that the 2 stroke with the 44T still had me on top end. But...It was close on the top end.. Eventually we were about the same on top end but by then the 2 stroke was way up the road by then since it pulled harder. I guess I could have dropped my 4 stroke back down to a 44T..But..Then I would have been killed totally by the 2 stroke on the top.
So....In aggregate....The 2 stroke wins hands down in both pull and top end.. You just can not beat the 2 Stroke. Not with the NX50 Honda 4 stroke motor anyway... It is still a good runner though..If you can get over that dog gone Transmission clatter and whine under load.
