Good day,

Wondering what the last year Yamaha built two strokes ? I will be looking to upgrade already from my Mountain SRX700.

Thanks,

Not a fan of the new 4 strokes?
 
I think there's no doubt the four strokes are more fuel efficient, and perhaps more durable and reliable. If you follow that logic, I suppose if you really wanted to you could make a sled diesel powered as well. But pound for pound, I don't see you getting the same power and acceleration out of a four stroke, all other things being equal, as you do out of a two stroke. There's something to be said for getting a power stroke every revolution, as opposed to every two. My opinion only...
