Support us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/dirtbikechannel In the 6th and final part of this series, we wrap up the discussion. We've covered a lot of information to get to this point, and there is no right or wrong answer for every person. For many of us, it simply comes down to personal preference. Sure, we have our opinions, but that doesn't invalidate any others that may have a different viewpoint. Pick a platform and get out and enjoy the journey! The more that I've ridden and tested dirt bikes over the years, the more that one thing has been driven home for me. There is no wrong answer to this debate. Sure, the 2 strokes are more fun for me to ride most of the time. Having said that, the 4 strokes certainly have their advantages in certain situations like on a track (I don't ride tracks, so it really doesn't matter to me). Most of the time in the past couple of years, I've had a 2 stroke and a 4 stroke sitting in my garage. The only time I really get tempted to ride my 4 strokes is when I'm heading out to the desert where the speeds are going to be higher and the whoops are going to be deep. If I know I'm heading to tight, technical singletrack... I'm going to take the 2 stroke for sure. I'm a 2 stroke convert because I have ridden 4 strokes since I was a kid. Back in the day, as a child, the 2 strokes scared me since the power was pretty much all or nothing. The big bore 2 strokes are not like this at all. They have tons of low end and mid range power. They are great. Want to help support Dirt Bike Channel?

I love what Karen said and when she is on. You should have her on way more as a team participant. We love her!!!
Back tot he vid, we all need a two stroke and a four stroke in our stable!! I've got one, I'm working on the next one. -
i wish Suzuki would get back into the 2 stroke world, the RM 125 and 250's were great bikes at the time! how about a 300cc RM/RMX 2 stroke from Suzuki ? :) will we ever se Suzuki back in the 2 stroke action? :P

2 stroke, cause 4 stroke waste 2 (many).

I own a 2014 400 drz sm . im looking to buy a dirtbike i was thinking a 2017 yamaha 250x 2 stroke but the guy at the shop thinks i should go with a 4 stroke. im not sure which to go with . im just riding dirt trial no motorcross and im not sure of the power compared to my 400. any suggestions
-
great video guys! you nailed it when you said RIDE WHAT WORKS FOR YOU! point being that's why I picked up a 500 XC-W over the 300, because I wanted to be able to ride my bike to work and then hit the track one weekend and then the trails the next weekend, change tires and a sprocket and I'm good to go

2 strokes takes more skill then four strokes. Two strokes are lighter and more powerful. The ktm 300 produces more power then the 450s so two strokes are better however if you like four strokes there is defiantly nothing wrong with that. when it comes to riding or racing skill is the biggest factor.
-
so what did i get from all of this... GET BOTH!!
-
Tell me wat 250cc off/on bike is good
-
uhmmm the choices are limited by emissions and govt meddling. all major factories don't make options anymore...limited companies with high dollar for remaining 2t. hence 4t popularity. I just bought an 07 450r with SSS front and rear full valve/ spring reworked boingers( lucked out as original owner 5 lighter only)for less than what my buddy wanted for a cherry 96 rm 250 bone stock with a broken kicker
-
I really want a two stroke now. the trails here are tough on 4 strokes because of the flame out factor.
-
AMAZING review."!👏👌
-
my 2 stroke starts very hard at first start and the bike is new...
-
NEWB......so 4 strokes don't need gas mixing? ....so can just go to a station and fill up, no worries?

Question for you guys: I haven't ridden in about ten years but I'm getting back into riding and I'm gonna be picking up a new bike soon. I've decided that I want a 2 stroke over a 4 stroke (which your video series helped very much with), and I was sold to KTM because I'm familiar with their platforms. I am looking at either the 150 XC-W or the 250 XC-W. I figured the 150 would be good to get back into riding with, but I'm worried that it will be underpowered for my size (6'0" 180lbs). What would you do? Thanks
-
i can not diced on both of them
-
CR500 !! Yeah baby!!
-
Different strokes for different folks
