The switch to 990cc four strokes in 2002 was the end of the two-stroke 500cc era. It then went back down to 800cc from 2007-2011 and now going up to 1000cc for next year. The change isn't quite as dramatic as a doubling of capacity would suggest.
you would of heard a two stroke its the scooter or common dirt bike noise.
A 4 stroke cycle is on the first rotation it blows the exhaust gas out then sucks the air/fuel in. On the 2nd it squeezes the gases the sets them alight,
A 2 stroke does all 4 in 1 rotation of the engine but at the cost of poor lubrication and dirty emmisions.
See how stuff works for a fantastic visualization of the differences.
@ulverup The difference is in the amount of strokes a cylinder takes to complete a cycle of intake, compression and ignition, and exhaust. I don't remember the exact differences, but a two-stroke makes power roughly twice as often as a four-stroke. Wikipedia has some excellent moving diagrams.
I think the clip of Mick Dooohan dropping it is just amazing. He's lost the front, he's lost the back, he's still hanging on and trying to save it off his knee. You just can't see that kind of riding anymore.
Hey peeps, if any one of youse can remember the race where Nicky Hayden hit a high-side and went into the side of another rider, taking them both out, could you reply to me plz? i've been trying to find the clip everywhere but i'm mucked if i can remember which track it took place at.
@ramboblood its a documentary on the sport of moto gp and its riders over the latter years of the 500cc era if I remember correctly but then the sequel Faster & Faster has the next few years (like '02? to '04?) showing the changes made to 4stroke engines and an increase to 1000cc's and also about the riders and certain incidents during those seasons. absolutely amazing set of DVD's. I couldn't tell you where to find it as I received it as a gift =\
I have this DVD. Also I have the DVD "The Doctor, The Tornado and The Kentucky Kid". But where this guy "John Hopkins, The Hopper" is gone. He is disappeared from Racing at all. He is got huge talent, but lack of opportunities in MotoGP and also WSB.
@GermanSniperBayArea You can find the Collector's Edition DVD on our NewVideo(dot)com site or click on the direct link below the video for more details.
@EJ25RUN Max can kiss my arse, the miserable little cunt. I was hoping Carl Crutchlow was going to punch the little pricks head in on the podium at magny cours but alas he was to much of a gent. Fuck Biaggi!
The song in this video is Whatever Happened to my Rock n' Roll by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club- it has some videos on YouTube. I also like their song called Berlin a lot.
I get the Speed Channel on cable TV, that has most of the MotoGP races, and watch the 800cc class. I have enjoyed reading about the Isle of Man races- quite dangerous for the riders. I ride a small slow cruiser on the street, and never spent the money to race, but I enjoy watching the races now.
Does anyone know the name of this song and who sings it? Great Song,Great Vid, Just simply awesome!! Thanks whoever gives me that info, I really appreciate it!
@MrArjun223 Fuck you, cunt. Just shows how little you know. From 1978-2006, American riders won 15 of 29 World Championships. Now we have Ben Spies in MotoGP so go suck on your mother's asscrack, bitchass motherfucking cunt.
If you love your bike, set it free.
If it comes back to you, you probably high sided.
