also a big fat no.
the costs required, versus the profit made.... nope.
until the need arises...
i liken this to model aircraft.
first there was the 2stroke, noisy but standard.
someone made a 4stroke, and its the sound more than anything that wins here!
so then there was a market for more 4strokes, in more sizes!
OS motors got silly and made the fs20,26, and 30.
they discontinued the 20 and the 26. the 30 shares most parts, and is still in production.
but then, for some reason, they re-released the 26 size...as a car version!
now heres the thing...there seemed to be no changes made to it from the original plane version, besides the colour and the pullstart!
so now its extremely rare! as the production was ceased fairly rapidly.
but why go to all the effort? and then just drop it?
because there was no need for them! not to mention fitting one is a challenge!
so now we have the same problem here....
the 2stroke suits the application well, theres no major need to change, so why change?
honda just wanted to be the standard setter. they are now
anyways. its in the books.
market demands, market demands. noone has demanded a 50cc vtwin with clutch and 1 or 2 speed box...
