    As someone pointed out, it is some sort of industrial engine, long stroke, single exhaust valve operated by a pushrod.

    Honda have said for the longest time that they are 4 stroke company , if anyone does bring out a decent 2 banger , it will be Yamaha or Kawasaki, then the others will follow suit

    These stories get rehashed usually April 1st every few years.
    The 2 smoke died in the 90's, best to leave it there.

    Well fortunately you can still buy 2-stroke dirt bikes, so they are not actually completely dead.

    2 Stroke engines have large potential, Just waiting for tech to catch up, they're ideal as race bike and fast onroaders, everyone's just gone soft XD

    30 years and every day I move closer to biting the bullet and letting it go.

    31,000km on a two stroke which Ive probably spent more $ and man hrs than 500,000km on 4 stroke bikes that turn key and straight to race pace without any more than regular servicing.
