2-stroke road bike? what did you do if you needed more fuel?

It has seperate tanks for oil and petrol nd uses an oil pump to mix them itself.
Don't you lot have 2 strokes on the road over in the US?, over here in the UK they're very popular with the younger riders because we are limited on a provisional liscence to 50cc at 16 and 125cc at 17 and obviously a 2stroke 125 has more power than a 4 stroke 125, so pretty much nobody buys a 4 stroke untill they have theyre full liscence and can get something bigger.

In Canada (ont) to take your test you have to be on a + 250cc bike! And there is no restrictions on the ccs
when you start out. The only catch is insurance, its done by ccs the more you have the more you pay!I never see 2 stroke bikes on the street only in the dirt!!

There are some older ones around in the US, but they don't meet current emissions standards, so they don't import any street legal 2 strokes anymore.
ahh i see, thats too bad[down], over here bikes dont really have any emmisions standards(not that i know of anyway), cars have alot of emmisions to pass though.
Boreas, yeh our insurance is like that too, im 18 with a 1 litre bike i almost died when i got my first quote, luckily i worked hard in school and got myself a good job haha
