>>1712395Belongs on /o/ but since I used to ride motorcycles, hell yeah they're fast, the problem though is their powerbands are very narrow and at the top. The Kawasaki H1 Mach III was made in the mid 60s and runs a 12-13s quarter mile with a 750cc 2-stroke inline 3. That's like having a 1.5L inline 6 between your legs, at half the engine weight. My dad who grew up in Japan riding motorcycles during those days calls it a "satsujin bike" (murder-cycle)
>>1712413The problem with 2-strokes is their inherent design has low volumetric efficiency due to the intake path reducing the compression ratio and/or less air/fuel to compress. That means extracting less power from the same amount of air/fuel mixture.
