Has anyone heard about Stihls new 4 cycle pre-mix engine. http://www.popsci.com/popsci/bown/2003/ ... 79,00.html The engine is stated as having horsepower and torque gains while reducing emissions. It uses intake and exhaust valve and 4 cycles just like a four cycle, but still uses pre mix at a 50:1 ratio. I wonder what this could hold for the future of dirtbike 2-smokes? :?

I have an extendable STIHL pole trimmmer with a 12" bar. It has that engine on it. Its real nice. Has lots of power at low RPM. Its weird to be cutting with a chain saw with low end. Takes a bit of getting use to.
