A 750cc two-stroke engine in a motorcycle is beyond insane. I'd love to have one.
me to..
I had the once in a lifetime experience of reving out a RG500, it was incredibly smooth, I couldn't believe it.
Damn, RG500 is like my all time dream bike, it's such an awesome bike
@@razaqadeanova3255 *Correct Check this baby out. C Series 1989 Kevin Schwantz road legal replica - Summer and dry roads use only, and one careful owner.*
it just pops a wheelie on its own
Damn, the 500 gamma is a personal favourite.
@@gerardmontgomery280 Mine too! I've been looking for any modern 2-stroke (something with a fearing) for a couple years now, but haven't found anything in my price range. I almost had a RZ 350, but the guy sold it out from under me in less than 24 hours! I used to see em on eBay for about $3,500, but not anymore. Even Aprilia RS250s are going for $7500+ if they aren't stripped down track bikes... Guess I just ran out of time lol
Nothing better than the smell and sound of a two stroke bike on a cold morning! I can still remember.
V4 2 strokes seem like the best ides that never got explored enough. Potential for 500cc+ would be enormous!
Hence all the MotoGP winners....

This makes me miss my dads office borrowed Kawasaki Ninja 150RR. It was one of the loudest and fastest bike my dad has owned, over 30HP in total and that bike has always been locals favorite when it comes to 2 stroke tuning and it still is today. Remembered waking up to eat my breakfast and get prepared for school and my dad just starts her up, do a 10 minute warm up, and 3rd grade me just eating my breakfast while smelling that raw power of a 2 stroke smoke. Then i got to ride it to school with my dad. Just being a passenger makes me feel like i wanna die, it was too fast and it pulled like crazy. That was the coolest i can be arriving to my school
You can tell a solid amount of effort was put into this video, i appreciate you finding a clip of that 50cc turning massive RPMs. It was a nice little lesson
Despite having a 4-stroke motorbike, I love 2-stroke engines, it's a shame that they almost don't exist anymore !! 😕
I am quite satisfied with my current 4-stroke, but I miss a lot my previous 2-stroke bike, there is something magical in the 2-stroke engines that can hardly be explained by words !! 😍
I have tried my dad's duke 390 and tbh i like my NSR125 a lot more and it feels faster. Its a shame that it smokes 7L/100km
Down here in south América they are still pretty common
@@TheHackPlack Nsr are lovely bikes, a real Honda 2 Stroke!
@@TheHackPlack try using some smokeless oil you won't see so much smoke that way like the best one I like to use which is the best one is what they call yamalube R ...it's sold at Yamaha dealerships.... It doesn't make any smoke at all when the engines warmed up and you'll not find any carbon deposits of any kind anywhere inside the engine at all ever
@@kamilo034 two strokes are common around the world except in the United States where we have an organization called the EPA that is a criminal organization that tells everybody in the United States what they can do and what they cannot do which they based upon their lies of lying about the conditions of our planet like telling us that we have too much carbon dioxide so now there are people removing all the carbon dioxide in the air and when they're done all the plants in the jungles in the forest everything will be dead and dying means there'll be no more oxygen replenishment meaning that you're going to die in a very short time when the EPA is done killing everybody
Apparantly they’re toying with putting eco friendly 2 strokes in the 2025 generation F1 cars. Imagine a 2 stroke F1 car!
wartburg
No need. HONDA had a 2-troke F1 engine in the 60's.
Yea it s gona to be great , but they will not put the money in something that will be almost imposible to be sold due to the laws...
Oh lawd
Slothminister It won’t happen? Electrification is here.
I had a RD350LC, with the powervalves and slight tuning to around 70 horsepower. God what a machine it was.
Had the RD400D earlier version, what a flipping beast to ride, powerband so narrow, never got it onto the track unfortunately.
Most beautiful 2 stroke engines are the Scott/Silk 700s and the Scott inline 3, wonderful things to behold and sound good too.
I love the sound of a 2 stroke 3 cylinder. It’s exactly like a 3 Rotor or F1 V6.
Finally another f1 v6 lover
Especially with three into three chambers......earsgasmic!
My neighbor has a XCR 800 Polaris, (actually a 749cc Fuji triple) factory output was 155 HP, the thing is a rocket, and makes beautiful music.
"small single piston"
Maico 700 would like to *know your location*
Similar, 550 KTM
Maico 760 there is another
Laughs in Dr800
Man, nothing better than going to the racetrack and getting that first whiff of Klotz...hell yeah, we're racing 2 strokes today!
Four stroke : "shift up when it's hit redline"
Two stroke : "shift up when it's 1000 or 2000rpm after redline"
All two stroke rider know this thing, the redline is just 10000rpm, but you shift up at 11000 or 12000 rpm.
Sorry for bad english
emang gitu ? kenapa juga ?
@@aditya-br3kg kebanyakan 2tak gitu mas, kalo yang biasa pke 2tak pake teknik itu biar mesin ga ngempos, kaya ninja aja. Kalo ngikutin rpm redline bawaan pasti larinya drop
A very strange proposition: considering that in two strokes there are no valve springs, the engineer shall be more interested in signing the speed that isn't necessary to overtake
Comparing a 30 to 50 year old two stroke to a "modern" 4 stoke is like comparing a P-51 to an F-18. It's doesn't make any sense.
If 2-stroke engines has continued to develop alongside 4-strokers, we'd still see a disparity between the two; 2-strokers being lighter, more powerful, cheaper, and stinkier than 4's. (Personally, I like the smell)
The advantages offered today to 4-strokers include better metallurgy, much better fuel injection, instrumentation, and engineering software.
Advantages of a 2-stroke today that would hold true today including, reduced cost/complexity of heads and valves, increased lightness (due to less material, due to lowered stresses, due to power releases across 2 revolutions instead of once out of every four revolutions), increased lightness of parts and pistons contribute to higher RPM's than a 4-stroke.
*That's not true!*
I miss my 2 stroke bikes so bad that I start my chainsaw just to smell and hear it!
Me too. ..
hahahahaha epic comment!!
I still have all my 4 OSSAs an MZ and a Suzuki GP125.
Just keep what you like
Buy Castrol R for all you two stroke tools, God I miss my RD
@@mrfahrenheit3867
Klotz oil is castor oil, works and smells great too.
Those 2 strokes are music to the ears. Keep the videos coming I enjoy every one of them
II'm so lucky to have you that you put these videos together about all these different engines incredible thank you for doing that for us
I appreciate it!
As a younger man I had 2 x Honda NS125s.. then after passing my bike test (UK), I had a Kawasaki KR-1 250, and a (bought new), Suzuki RGV 250P.. Absolutely glorious bikes, much missed..
Love your videos! I’ve been watching since you only did subtitles. Thanks for continuing to upload!
Just in time when i wanted to learn more about 2 strokes ! Thank you for the upload !
Engine configuration is one thing, but valve application is another beast entirely. I owned both NSR150 from the 90s and a 2010 Ninja 150RR. All I can say is that Honda nailed it better with their RCvalve compared to Kawasaki's Super KIPS, despite both fundamentally does the same thing as a reed valve. The only problem is that NSR's RCvalve depends so much on sustained voltages, it's only a matter of time till it broke. The same voltage source for everything else on the bike. Mine break twice by now, for different reasons. Meanwhile, Super KIPS don't have such weakness. Except maybe some minor hiccup due to the mechanism got stuck by dust or debris, which can be easily rectified.
What ARE you talking about!?..Power valves work on changing exhaust port height. Reed valves work as one way valves on the inlet port
Thanks for using my clip and the credits below!!! LONG LIVE 2 STROKES!
Man, I love the RGV screaming! Thanks for this Video!
6:50 that dude had the nastiest fart in the history of Earth
still not as nasty as me eating beans
👌🏻🤣🤣🤣👍🏻
Lol
Godamit! 😂😂😂😂😂
Lmao
I am happy to you back. I hope you continue this series
I’m the original owner of a RD 400 F Daytona. I also have a Roberts RZ 350 and for longer rides, a Triumph 675 R Daytona. I love the two smokers, but the Triumph sounds pretty damn good with that triple with a full system! Keep the two smokers alive!
Man, that Puch 250 is beautiful!
Yeah! - well rare now!
I see 2 stroke I hit like
thank you for super engine sound info upload :D :)
Two strokes are love❤
Never was a fan of 2 strokes. They sound odd. But the always smelled good. Now i appreciate them way more and actually want one
Sheer 2 stroke noise uplifted my mood amid corona virus lockdown....>>>
Love your two stroke vids dude
The only two-stroke engines I hear on a regular basis are locomotive engines. Not that an EMD710 V16, 4300 HP at 900 RPM doesn't have its merits. :-)
Those are amazing engines, indeed!
Laura Halliday and then there’s the Deltics!
You should hear a 12V-71 Detroit some time.
a 2 stroke diesel is totally different that a 2 stroke gas/oil.
electro-motive division 2 strokes and these two strokes have nothing in common the electro-motive division in Detroit Diesel have four exhaust valves ,and they have to have a blower to scavenge out the exhaust, nothing the same except one power stroke per revolution
Amazingly accurate content. Very entertaining.
I immediately remembered my first enduro bike. It was Yamaha DT 175) l love this sound and love this smell😍
Great comment mate!
Wonderful,Great Video,Thank You!!! 🤘😊🏍️
Two stroke heaven. Much appreciated video👍
Love that KX 250 from ArmathuX🔥❤️
You mentioned the Yankee 500. You have done your home work!
A four stroke has a power stroke every second revolution.
A two stroke has a power stroke every revolution.
Again awesome video
Another cracking video thanks.
It just keeps getting better!😊
The RG400 was also sold in NewZealand ( not just Asian markets ) . Nice bike ( I had one ) , very popular over here due to being considerably cheaper than a 500 ( although they must have cost similar amounts to make , due to being almost the same bike )
Hi! Nice bikes! There was a little mistake regarding inline 4:s though, I think: Suzuki RG500 is not inline, but square 4, with two separate crank shafts connected by gear. Like " two times inline 2:s "
There's nothing like the sound of a 2 stroke on the pipe😋
Best episode in few years!!
Thanks......Nice Sounds
Great vid.
Long live the mighty two strokes!
*FOUR-stroke,* you mean?
Great video!
Thanks, man, I'm not gonna lie, I always enjoy your videos.
It's sad they don't make 2 strokes anymore, but we gotta save the planet now. Sigh.
I'm glad I got to experience 2 strokes, mainly singles, an RD400 twin, and I got a ride on a Kawasaik triple once. :)
Thanks for the memories!
Well, I too owned an RD400 in 1976 , getting it after the year before driving a Kawasaki 350 triple, 2 greatest machines I’ve ever ridden.
Great video 👍
Makes me wanna saddle up my banshee lol !!
I want a banshee so fckn much:(
Awesome vid dude, a couple here I didn't even know about. I started riding in the 80's, and working at a bike shop, I had to "sneak" ride a race prepped Yammie IT495 a couple of blocks downtown - try and "ease" into the powerband in traffic - what a hoot - point, warp, brake - point, warp, brake, all the while hanging over the front mudguard to keep the nose at least near the ground, lol. Good times.
Lovely engine❤️ 💨
Amazing sound. +1
As soon as you mention two stroke I am in heaven and back in the 80s lol
Thank you!
Awesomeness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love 2stroke engine , 👍 tips
I'm living my two stroke dream. A 1971 H1 500 and at the other end a Aprilia RS250
Thanks man! A lot!
Amazing
RG500 Suzuki was a Square Four not an in line four.
Where the hell you been man?! I hadn't seen your videos in a long time! I watched them religiously
Another great video on two strokes also included old gold motorcycles a mate of mine owns the place
Years ago I got a chance to ride a 2 stroke road bike. A Suzuki GT 650. Smooth as butter for a 2 stroke. I owned a Honda CR 125. Way too much fun. I just sold a 2014 Polaris Switchback Assault snowmobile with a 600 twin 2 stroke. Again, way too much fun. Great power. Less moving parts. Aftermarket companies have been tuning 2 strokes with turbos for the mountain sleds for the higher altitudes. Polaris and Skidoo started factory installing turbos on some of their trail sleds. 2 strokes are unbeatable in applications where high power to low weight is the order of the day.
The Suzuki rp68 with a v3 50cc imagine the size of those pistons, and I believe it had 14 gears because the power band was only good for 500 rpm
is it rp68 or rk67 ?
I really like this
5:52 OMG!!! Perfect Sound.That is like RB26 engine :)
Nop, sounds like a Wartburg 311/353 or Melkus RS1000
Love the 2 stroke screaming
Wonderfull!!!
The Sunbeam S7/S8 was a four stroke. The Suzuki 's RP68 20,000rpm isn't all that impressive when you remember that the contemporary Honda RC116 50cc 4-stroke twin made its power at 21500rpm. The mid 60s saw some truly memorable racing engines. Personally, I've owned mostly 4-strokes, but a very high-speed run on my buddy's RG500 remains one of the most memorable rides of my 41 years of motorcycling. I'm also old and lucky enough to have ridden a Kawasaki 500 triple; it was an unpleasant beast.
I have had my share of two stroke car and mycles . I loved my SAAB 850, I think it was a 64 , wasn't as good as a VW , in snow,, but was faster. I worked for a Yamaha dealer in it 71 and tested the rd's ,dt's etc. I also owned a YDS 3, and a JAWA ,CZ, and now I am buying a 53 Zundapp 250 , .I am 76 so this is probably my last bike.
I remember being about 8 at the dirt bike track wondering why my Honda went putputput while the Kawasakis around me went dingdingding
I used to see 2 stroke bikes all the time..... a dying breed now 😢.
Had a Suzuki GT750 triple back in the day. A touring bike. Engine was rebuilt with bridge-ported cutouts, triple expansion chambers, basically as close to full race engine as you could go. No power below 4000 rpm, but above that - with a pillion - it would run past the Z900s, Z1000s of the day, and then I’d grab 5th gear and disappear into the distance. I fitted a Dunstall full fairing, longer Koni shocks on the rear, and some suitably sized Trickit forks internals in the front, and also reversed the fork legs to put the calipers behind them.
Raising the rear cured the weave the stock bikes had over 180kmh.
Tried it on the drag strip once, but getting it off the line was a problem. Good speed at end of the quarter mile. Second pass I blew the clutch basket apart - and it cut a gouge into the inside of the clutch cover. Ouch. Running into the redline it would do a tad over 270kmh (calculated using revs x wheel rotation. Probably going faster, actually, allowing for growth of the type at high speed. This was all on comparatively skinny Dunlop K-81s, by the way. When I think back, I am lucky to still be here. In my 60s now, and all the people from my town used to tell my Dad I wouldn’t live to be 21. Well, I’m still here, and they’re all gone.........
Great, as every time. Two-stroke engines have nearly the same compression at every power load. The resonance exhauster helps loading the cylinder more than at low speeds. However, at very low loads the mixture in the cylinder is filled with exhaust gas, causing interruptions of combustion. The spark plug ignites, but at the position there is no combustible gas. So, after one or two revolutions the exhaust gas is purged out and a new combustion takes place. There is one little engine with an astonishing low load behavior. It is the YAMAHA FS50 SS, built BEFORE the RD50. The engine used to have a rotary vane and even down to idle load you couldn´t hear any dropout. For me it was the most civilized gas two-stroke engine ever built. The reason for that . . . I don´t know. Though the engine was not much weaker than the following models it took only about half the gas consumption.
"The big advantage of the four stroke is every revolution has a power stroke". Really? I think you have it wrong.
Nope, means more power (;
Read the caption it says big advantage “over” the four stroke. I did a double take as well.
I don't think he meant the *Ford PowerStroke V8 Turbo Diesel engine,* did he?
Tractors is so dumb!?!?! Tow Mater.
im collecting some vintage mopeds and i must say that the two strokes are way more fun to drive. got a 60cc fizzy which is a blast, top speed might not be that high but the acceleration is pretty fun
The engine design is simple and with some "extra help" from youtube, u can modify it by yourself. 2 Stroke forever..
That 20k rpm Suzuki 😂 damn what a sound
Meowing like a tiger!!!

Vertti syrjälä nice
Love these bikes, but I love the cbx-1000 the most. For a perfect blend of looks, performance, and sound.
I’ve had the chance to ride a friend’s 1975 Yamaha RD350 and I still remember the fantastic sound and power. It’s only weakness was it was prone to breaking down.
2 strokes forever!
Love my CR500, DT200R, NSR400 and RG250!
When I was 14 or 15 years old, I started riding my father's street bike. Prior to that, most of my experience was with my early 70s Yamaha YZ80. Dad's bike was a 1973 Suzuki GT750, with a fairing and hard saddlebags. It was a large, heavy motorcycle. To this day, my father marvels that I learned how to ride a street bike on it. Fortunately, we lived out in rural eastern Oregon at the time, so there were long, open roads for me to ride on. It's the first vehicle I ever took over 100 miles per hour.
3:37 same colour as my RS250. great fun bike to ride
Nice
The 3 cilinder sounds soooooo good
Que maravilla las dos tiempos i LOVE It
Muy bien Senor!
Inline twins or triplets sound soo good
Thanks
Hey Visio, if you ever think of doing a continuation of this, I would recommend using different engines, instead of the Internet-famous one.
Like for example, on the single: the Minarelli V1 (A big name in the moped world) instead of the dirtbikes or sportbikes.
I hope I explained well. Have a good day.
Edit about the V1 engine. Maybe there's not a lot of information about it on the Internet, but; for example, here in Argentina it's very popular on Zanella brand mopeds (Models V1, V2, V3, Sol and Due).
It even had two versions. The first one being piston port inducted and two transfers with central sparkplug and no squishband; and the second one being crankcade inducted through a tiny, two petal reed valve; five transfers (four on each side, one back port), offset sparkplug with squishband; and external lubrication pump.
A special thing about the Argentinian market V1 engine is the lack of pedals like in the European models. It has only right side kickstarter (I heard something about electric starter). But anyway it maintained the centrifugal clutch, single speed gearbox.
That's all I have now.
Awwwesome piece VR.....luv your work, keep up the Great pieces u put togeather. Big fan here from down in Australia.....big fan of the two strokes(as you can see from my Avatar-its a picture of my 1990 VJ21 Pepsi RGV250=62h.p@159kg=have owned it 28years)& Mazda Rotarys.....Please do a piece on the Mazda 787B(the first Japaneses car to win Le-mons 24hr)Hey, luvd the rotary chain saw piece :=)

Super! I only miss the Boxer-2 Layout (IFA BK 350)
The old Kawasaki h2 is my favorite old 2 stroke.
Great Video. You forgot the Manico 700 2 strike dirti bike engine.
Compression ratio 12:1 for a 2 stroke engine. What an incredible
