Who here just loves 2 strokes??
Yes and more people need to get not just into the sport but onto 2strokes, I love 2 strokes I had a yz85 and now I have a yz125 and it's shreds
I do!!! I regret selling my 1997 KX250 and need another 2stroke for the track!

Switching from the 4 stroke to the 2 stroke was the best decision I ever!! Well informed video bro!!🤝
I haven't really ridden dirt bikes; I mean I've had a few. The one thing I hate about 2 stroke is how annoying and loud they can be, I hate how the engine sounds, I mean it just sounds like a weedwhacker on steroids and it's just so annoying. 4-strokes have a nice purr to it just like a V8 Engine but considering 2 strokes are easier to work on is probably a good way to go. I might stick with my 4-stroke option though, I'd prefer to just relax, ride, and have fun and I'd like to get traction and not spin out.
@@SuperiorityFighter😂😂 two strokes sound way better then four strokes a four stroke sounds all quiet and two stroke is loud love that loud sound
Same here
My dad started his 250 4 stroke at the beach 1 girl out of a group of 12 girls looked I started my 250 2 stroke right after and all 12 broke their neck lookin at me 🤣at that moment I realized the 2 stroke life was the life for me
Lol!
because 4 stroke sounds like anything else you normally hear, but that 2 stroke is just mean as hell sounding. especially when it is revving to the moon and blowing smoke out the back.
Same reason superbikes turn more heads than loud annoying harleys lol
Bc they sound obnoxious lol
They turned to see if it was there old man coming mate, cause they dads owned 2 stokes, and probably couldn’t believe Dad got the heap of shit started again.
Last time I came so early, I had to pay child support.
What in the world my dude
Lmfaooooo
Hahahaha 🤣
Lmao! Good one
This will be utilized in the near future
Hear the ping see the smoke you just got passed by a 2 stroke !!!
Yesss sirrrrrr
Yeah my friend has a 2 stroke and when I go riding with him I just hear pinging then u just get blasted with blue smoke lol
Copied from donut media video 😂
@@GhostOfDamned no... its been a saying for a long time lmao

Nothing better than riding beside someone while there full throttle, slowly pull in front of them, then hit the throttle hard and fishtale away from them. Gotta love how easy a cr500 pulls 5th gear fishtales 🤙
hell yeah
Heck yeah! Especially on a 125 🤪
I can tell you don’t get off the Mx track much. Two strokes own the woods.

@@Zander_Hale that was my only thing. I don't have a track super close to me and I do drive to it sometimes but I have a lot of trail riding but was thinking of getting a yz125. It's just trail riding, small hills, little rocky sections and fun bumps/whoops. Do you think it'd do good there?

2 strokes rule! However, they are getting somewhat more expensive depending on what you buy because they are getting snatched up by collectors. Great job Cody! 2 stroke Coaches Challenge race would be good!
This is true!

Fuel injection 🥴
I recently switched to a 2 stroke and I love it! I do more xc riding so I got a 300 XC. It’s lighter and more powerful than my 250
Awesome to hear!!
Put in the red power value spring, turn out the power valve screw, slap on an FMF Fatty & 2.1 ti shorty. Take an extra pair of underwear if you remap the ECU...

great saying😂😂
Not seeing less and less people on 2 strokes, maybe at the track, but cross country / gncc 2 strokes are everywhere

@@interstellaraxeman4468 "Into the void"?
2 stroke the best!!!!
agreed!
I respectfully disagree
@@eso6626 no option of disagree.
They where the best in the 80s yes👍🏻👍🏻
In Performance? Nah. I’m not even going to argue that. if they did perform better 4ts wouldn’t be used in almost all professional competitions. But for personal use, they are definitely better IMO. Barley any mechanic visits needed, cheaper to maintain, and quite fun. You could argue you want the best performance, but unless you really are serious in racing, you would barley be able to open up the full potential of even a 125 2t.
I just sold my crf250r and ktm 450sxf to buy my dream bike a 99 cr250r yesterday and i can't wait to get on a 2 smoker soon 😎
Two major things happened during the MX sport in the USA, and both drastically increased bike prices, because they were both intrusions on the free market of MX.
1) The 1986 production rule, only in the USA. The FIM (only in Europe at the time, but was always the boss of the AMA), was sick of USA winning the MXofN since 1981, so they got Yamaha to drop their works bikes in 1985, (again, only for the USA, Not Europe), and Yamaha was the leverage to have the production rule put in place,---for the USA only. A 1984 YZ250 costs about $1,400, (already had 12" of wheel travel with up-side down forks breaking out, exhaust power valves, water cooling, disk brakes, single shock linkage rear suspension, and my 2019 YZ250 is about the same with a aluminum frame.), and a 1988 CR250 costs $3,200 new. The price doubled in 2 years, because of the production rule.
2) The 4-strokes were not a free market idea, but an idea pushed on the industry, through the FIM/AMA, by environmental groups and government groups, (far from free market), and the price doubled again. Yamaha was the first to race one with Doug Henry on the pegs in 1997.
Both times, Yamaha was at the tip of the spear, and I find it ironic that Yamaha is the only Japanese manufacture still making a 125 and 250cc 2-stroke. Wanna bet the cost of a new YZ250 2-stroke is really $6,500, ($7,500 is what they sell for), and for every YZ 250 sold, $1,000 of that profit goes into their 4-stroke program?
One thing is for sure. Because of the FIM, the market share has shrunk to 1/10th of the bikes sold in the USA compared to the sales before the 1986 production rule. The FIM/AMA need some good free market competition with objective reasoning, ---or this sport dies eventually.
The YZs first came out with USD forks in 1989. I had one.
Jacky Martens won the MX world championship on a 4 stroke Husqvarna in 1993, which was the first win for a four stroke since Jeff Smith won in 1965.
Remember when you go to the supercross and all it was was 2 strokes. Then you here that braaaaaap, and kinda chuckle. Now the 2 stroke is the odd sound in the pack!!!!🤘✌️
I started riding my first time last year at 38 on a 2011 KTM XCW. Had never ridden a bike in my life; didn't understand power band, sucked at clutching. Put a few hours on the bike and pretty much immediately went and broke my tibia and fibula hitting a rock and got a nice metal rod and screw in the leg (sep 2020). Poster boy of what NOT to do.
Been riding past few weeks just taking it slow; messing with powerband springs and figuring out what I like and don't like and learning to clutch. I've ridden a friends 4 stroke since the accident, but I'm gonna stick to the 2 stroke and learn to ride properly. Yes I'm an idiot - was my 4th bone break, so wasn't anything new. Just first one on a motor vehicle.
no offense, but you sound like the exact type of person who shouldn't be on a bike
I have a built YZ 125 making 42 hp on VP C12. To say they have less power would be talking stock power out of the box. With the built engine in the light weight 125 i have a far better power to weight ratio than even a 450. I can take them on holeshots even and have several times racing open class. The best part is 2 laps in the four stroke guys are getting arm pump and tired while im still just flicking the light weight machine. I usually get a good start with it and then stick with the leaders for a few laps and by the last laps when they are tired i put the pressure on forcing their mistakes. Two strokes are easy winners if you build them right and learn how to ride them correctly.
Love the power band and sound of a two stroke.
Let's not forget Beta! Just took my new Beta out for the 1st time today after riding 4-strokes my entire life. Man, what a different feel! I have a lot to get used to before my first race next month!
I'm 60 years old and I hadn't written a two-stroke dirt bike since I was about 20. So I went ahead and bought gas gas ex250. And I'm having a blast on it. It's a little bit scary because I'm only 5' 8, but I do what I have to. I love the 2-stroke power, the sound, and just the way they run in general. And the newer TPI bikes like mine can be lugged down without fouling plugs.
Almost the same brother. Haven’t ridden competitively in over 20 years. I’m 45 now and just bought a KTM 250 SX. Gonna take it on the track and show these youngsters how it’s done.
Just went from a 450R to a 250 2 stroke, best thing I ever did.
Great Video Cody!! Glad to see you still have the same passion for dirtbikes as you did 8 years ago. Hope to see you at the track.
I've been riding only 4 strokes and last month I bought a 2 stroke yamaha 125 and I love the feeling ❤❤❤
sold my raptor 700 a few months ago and snagged an 06 yz 250. best decision I've made
😂😂😂 yes
I've been riding 4-stroke for 12 years and now I'm saving up to buy my first 2-stroke some time. Can't wait!
You won’t regret it. So fun to ride…
Just got my first 2 stroke a Ktm 300 exc and loving it thanks for the advice!!
To those who feel that the Powerband is too narrow, fit a VHM cylinder head and you will wonder why you did not do that earlier! We fitted one to our 150sx (that was an awsum bike to starters) and we ended up fitting a bigger front sprocket and a smaller rear one to keep the new power under control. Our 150sx is now a 250f killer!
If you want to go racing and get the best results possible then you have no business riding a 2 stroke but if your riding for fun then you have no business on a 4 stroke in my opinion .. nothing like it when you connect a few corners while she's on the pipe ..brrrraàaaaap
Way to go! You guys rock!
Nice vid, man! We’re 2-strokers-300xc for me and 125sx for my son. You sort of hinted at it, but the lower center of gravity contributes to the lighter feel.
I’m 44 years old and I ride a 2005 RM250. Yes it’s hard to ride sometimes but it’s by far the snappiest bike I’ve ever owned. A 2 stroke will make you a better rider because they make you work. Some guys hate that part of it so they ride a 4 stroke fart machine. I’m a kid of the 80’s and 90’s and I’ll ride 2 strokes as long as I physically can.
36 now and feel privileged to have grew up on 2 strokes. I fly a 2 stroke plane now. LoL
Thanks so much for the video. I never rode 2 stroke so I am watching everything that I can on 2 stroke. Thanks for your input and ideas, more info is always good.
Great video. Love the appeal at the end. Funny too.
Yes - nothing like a 2-stroke.
Especially a 125. Best time of a racers life is those couple of years on a 125. Nothing is more fun than that.
Personally, I like the "dancing with the bike" feel, I feel that it makes me a better rider since this is harder to learn and you also turn peoples heads when you fly by... BRAAAAAP
nothing like the sound of a 2 stroke. love em
This is great, I'm trying to get into racing and a lot of your videos have put a lot of thought into my perspective of things.
Love the channel. You're videos helped me get a better handle on this dirtbike thing since I started riding again a year ago. THanks!!!!
Both are good. I personally ride a 4 stroke. But I love 2 strokes and I have a 2 stroke. 2 stroke has a nice light feeling. Both are really fun.
2 strokes kick ass! More Cody!
💨💨💨 🤘🏻
I have been riding 4 strokes my hole life, but this Christmas I got a TM racing 144 cc 2 stroke. And it’s a big Learning curve.
Love the energy and the comical way this was approached awesome job
Just got myself an 88 cr250r 2-stroke for my very first bike. Started watching your videos and taking mental notes. A little less nervous to start first hand learning😂🤘🔥
Hey man how did you do ? I’m getting a 01 cr250r tomorrow for my first bike lmao 😂😂
Should clarify this is specific to motocross. In hard enduro, everyone rides two strokes. There's also Sherco, Beta, Yamaha, KTM, and Rieju still making two stroke race bikes.
Love to try a beta 300rr or rx
Billy Bolt is on a 4 stroke now, and still winning.
I am 61 and a disabled vet!! And i am getting the yzx125!!! It has been 21 tears since i rode and a,ways rode 2 strokes!!! And i love the smell of a fresh 2 stroke oil in the morning!!!
Love these videos, just got my first bike 3 weeks ago 2021 KTM SX250 and it rips!
Of all the motorcycles I've owned, my YZ125 2stroke is by far my favorite.
Yz 125s are soooooo good!
wait till you try a yz250
If you ever get a chance to ride a 2 stroke open bike, like 490 or 500, it is hard to describe how awesome they are.
Yeah Cody, keep on doing videos! Greetings from Estonia.
Greetings!
👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
As I just bought a kx100. Perfect timing guys
Love this content. I’m looking to buy my first 2 smoker dirt bike, coming from an SV650! I’ve always loved watching motocross and flat track, thanks to my brother!
Keep the Suzuki. I miss mine. But also get a dirtbike. I've never had a 125 2t but my dad had a blast on his. The kx 250 was insane and the KX 500 was retarded. I never rode the 500 but I rode the 250 and tried to race my dad on the 500. Big mistake without goggles.
Love that Cody reps the 2 stroke 🤙
You did a great job with the vid too bro ✌️
THanks for the support!!
Thanks 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻💨
You forgot to add; number 14 ... locktite is your best friend when maintaining a 2 banger
Yes!! we forgot that one!
Sure if you have an old Ktm. With yamaha maybe not so much. And well, with modern ktm is even less.
New KTMs have a 2 stroke counter weight to cancel out most of the vibration.
I hate lock tight. Only use it when absolutely needed, and I almost never need it. If you want to mess up your torque specs, use lock tight. Best to just stick with the torque specs.
@@EarthSurferUSA My sons TC125 manual specifies the use of Loctite on some fasteners in conjunction with a torque spec
You did great man. From a beginner who is conducting research. Thanks.
Im 14 and I just got a cr125 as my first bike! Its a bit tall but I'm taking it slow and I love it so far!
You can have your stock seat lowered about 1". I had "JB Sport Trim", (Nicole Guild in Gowen Michigan, 616-994-4767), cut mine and put the stock cover back on. I made a cardboard template, (flush to the bottom of the seat, showing what I wanted cut off at the top), so she could see what I wanted cut, and she did a perfect job for $80.00. I gave here $100.00. That is the least you will pay, to have any part lowered on your bike, and them most for the money by far. If you have the suspension lowered a bit, (I went 6% of my travel on both ends too), do not send your suspension to PR2 in PA. I have to redo my shock myself, because they did not know a simple calculation for the spacer thiskness in the shock.
Imagine a 125 monster cup 🔥🔥🔥

I love 2 strokes. I prefer the older bikes since that’s what my budget can afford as well. Currently ride a 2001 yz 250 2 stroke. 7 hours in the rebuild.
Can you guys make a start video please? I really need some tips for starts. If i can get my starts down, I'll pull away from everyone, and have GREAT races!
I believe they did.... If not it was someone else and the video was incredibly informative 👌

Love my 14 300 XC....Makes me feel young again.
Appreciate your style It's all good
At equal displacement, the 2 strokes power ratio is 1.7 greater. It means that a 250 cc 2 strokes is almost as powerfull as a 450 cc 4 strokes. If not even.
Yeah that's why 250 2 strokes race with the 450, pretty cool
@@shpwny2150 They should let 250 2 strokes race with 250 4 strokes. The four strokes have a fifteen year development advantage.
@@fredgarvinMP and the 4 strokes would get smoked every race. LoL you can engineer all you want, a 250 4 stroke will never put the same fear in your heart as a 250 2stroke.

I love 2 strokes the smell the soind and just everything about it
Needed this vid, might be picking up a 2 smoke this weekend!
I bought a brand new YZ 250 back in 2000. Man I love my 2 stroke, will never sell it. Still runs great to this day.
More people will buy 2t's if channel's like you make more content about them like this. I know for a fact people like me have been asking you to do a tutorial on how to clutch control properly, but our requests are largely ignored.
Cody you did a fine job on the video.....can you you guys get your T-shirt supplier to make a " when in doubt..throttle out" T-shirt ?
THanks for the idea!
You could do “2 stroke rippin soil spittin oil
Novel idea 😎
I love them more than anything!
Had kx65,kx85,rm125, than i had a yz450...yes it was an awesome bike and alot of fun to ride, but i couldnt stand the engine braking, the heavy weight, the fact that i simply couldnt rebuild the engine.. so sold it!
Now i got a yz250 and man, thats just so much fun to ride...sounds and smells awesome, and with a few pro circuit parts its just simply as fast as a 450 in my opinion!
Right now i rebuild it to a reverse restyle Version.. old 2002 plastics and airbox, it looks sick and pretty oldschool for a '19 bike. :)

Thank you Cody for the vid about the fun of 2smokes!! Do you think that a 2 stroke helps be a better rider? A lot of the top 13 you listed would make you a better rider, not just fast because the 4stroke can power you out of a corner. I think the new riders on 4strokes are missing the challenge and thrill of mastering a bike that really rewards upping your game.
Just waiting for my YZ125X to arrive...

Proud owner of a 2 stroke Husaberg 250 here. Great video, congrats
I own a Honda cr 85 and when I’m at the track it is by far the oldest bike there and it turns a lot of heads when people see me flat out trough corners and over jumps
CR85's haul. Don't buy a CRF150
Only 2brands?! However I'm pretty sure I'm riding a Beta 2strokes... And there's Sherco, and Rieju (which have previous Gasgas engines)
If you're talking about dirt bikes in general, make sure to integrate other category than MX !
Just watch one extreme enduro event and you'll see a lot of these bikes.
TM Racing makes rocking 2-Strokes
@@kennedyracing7527 Yep, totally forgot this one !
Most popular in America is Yamaha and Ktm, that’s probably why he didn’t feel the need to list every single two stroke that exist! Relax! It’s just a fun little video lol

Love it!! 2 Strokes Forever!!!
Love these 2 stroke vids👍
Good job. Tyler may have to step it up a little 😳🤣. I just trail ride but am looking to get a 2stroke. The wr450 is great but a little too much.
2 strokes are way better for trail because they don't run as hot as a 4 stroke. that's all i do is trail and 2 strokes are by far the way to go, even thou the wr 450 is a narlly trail bike 2 strokes are still better.
@@barakbertoch6690 i agree. In your opinion, would a TI 150 be a decent bike for a 6ft 230lb man who doesn’t care about log hopping, hill climbing or rock climbing? I just ride average south Texas trails
@@BigDaveTALKS given the fact that the TI 150 was made for tackling trails, it is all around a good bike and I personally love huskys. so I wouldn't say no but in my own mind more power more fun but also more difficult, but if all your doing is the easier end of trail riding, then a 150 will be the smarter thing to invest in.
Do a video on how to prepare for a race
Good idea!
Just got a 300 xcw. Can't wait for warmer weather
I love Cody’s energy
no engine breaking (or very little) is the thing i like least.
I reckon that's one of the good things, easier to carry more speed through corners.
@@callummacleod1921 100%!
You shouldn't engine brake a 2t anyways, the top end gets lubed by the oil in the fuel. When you engine brake it is only getting the amount of fuel it would get at idle, but it is still spinning at 3k+ rpms and not getting the oil it needs. It wears out the top end faster when you engine brake.
@@cadencramer2747 Sorry mate, i have to disagree with you there. The oil also pools in the crankcase and continues to do its job at zero throttle. While prolonged periods of engine braking can be a problem, ie long hill decents, I personally have never had a problem over 20+ years of riding and racing 2T's.
@@callummacleod1921 Yeah I was mostly thinking long descents. The trails around me are pretty much up or down, not much flat ground, so I usually just pull in the clutch and freewheel down the mountain.

I just bought a restored 1981 CR 250 elsinore 2 stroke and a blast to ride,the power band is crazy
I really think the KTM TPI levels in the 2 stroke are next level. You can still feel the "on the pipe" feeling but the power band is more like a 4 stoke. Meaning traditional 2 stroke you were either going blaaaaap compared to going braaaaaap. My newest bike is the 2020 KTM 300 XC TPI and at low end it chugs no stalling, top end it's a chain saw in the dirt!!!
2 strokes roooockkkkkssss :DDDD
agreed!!
