Modern day 300 two-strokes really
have come a long way from the
unresponsive, boring, tractor style
engines of years ago
make linear, yet responsive and super
effective power. It’s difficult to put in to
words, but it’s the type of power that
pushes you forward without fuss and
drama and yet is still really engaging and
fun – not to mention quick. This linearity
gives them an almost electric motor feel.
Individually of course, they all have
their distinct personalities, largely
governed by engine capacity and
whether they’re two- or four-stroke.
