Whenever the debate between two strokes and four strokes begins, proponents on both sides bring up various reasons to defend their position.

In many cases, real facts with proof are ignored, misused or misunderstood. At times, the arguments boil down to hearsay. Some of it  blatant lies.

This meeting is the brainchild of Remy Aust. A Dutch racer with a preference for 500cc two strokes. In his collection of bikes are two Honda CR500 motocrossers.

As an introduction to Remy, it’s a good idea to watch these two short videos from a beach race in Holland. The first one is from 2005 and the second one is from 2007. Remy is riding bike number 43 against a field consisting of mostly 450 four strokes.

2009 Husqvarna CR125

Husqvarna still believes in two-stroke engines especially for the 125 class and this engine size remains the entry point for many young riders wishing to join the world of motocross.

Canada is facing some of the same challenges as the rest of the world and we at the Two Stroke Militia want to help. There is new web site for Canadian Motocross fans called Direct Motocross (DMX) The site is run by Danny Brault along with a support team from Racer X Canada alumni.

They are currently running a poll on whether the two stroke should be able to compete in the MX2 class and frankly I need your help.

The crew over at Motorcycle USA.com just finished up their shootout of the latest 250F’s and they decided to add a YZ250 two stroke. Unfortunately they did not really include the YZ250 in the shootout, but they did ask their test riders impressions.

Here are a few quotes.

Happy New Year!

Here are a few videos to celebrate this past year. The best part about these is they are all from the 2008 racing season!

Marty Smith was the very first American motocross hero. Of course, back in the “old” days, there was very little video of motocross on television or otherwise. The only place to see your heroes back then was either by attending the Nationals or Trans AMA races or photos in magazines.

Billy Mackenzie is Britain’s reigning MX1 champion – the 23 year old Scot won his first title in 2007 and brought the number one plate with him to the crack CAS Honda squad for 2008. Completely dominant domestically, the three-time Grand Prix winner was an absolute shoe-in to retain his crown despite missing round five through injury, coming back for another couple of wins at the legendary Foxhill circuit before a big crash running second at the Czech Grand Prix left him to limp through Brampton in a brave effort to salvage points. Heading into the Hawkstone Park finale, a win in the first moto would be enough to clinch it from KTM’s James Noble and, as he did in every round when he started the race fit, Mackenzie made short work of taking the lead, fighting his way past the young Ray Rowson and clearing off for the moto and championship win.

That, however, is just where it starts getting interesting….

Do you have a modern two stroke Honda, Kawaski or Suzuki? Do you want to update the handling of your bike to modern aluminum framed standards?

Well MPS (Motorsports Products and Services) just may have the perfect answer for you.

Can you rebuild your two stroke engine in less time?

This video from Rocky Mountain ATV / MC shows you just how easy it is to do. Does it really take 10 minutes?
