they can still sell engines and parts after the deadline, just not new scooters.

sounds like 2 stroke conversions for the newer scooters that come 4stroke would be good.

?? Parts will continue to flow. You can still buy parts for a 69 Dodge right? They dont meet current emissions standards...There will just be a ban on new scooters, not the parts.

People with 2 strokes will keep them running longer (forever!) since nobody can buy them anymore..

sorry lennox i meant like using the 2 stroke wiring harness,and swicthing the whole 2 stroke engine case onto the 4stroke frame if they still bolted at the same place.

sorry, but I can never see a 4 stroke 25cc weedwacker! And I'm not paying more than $100 for a weedwacker in the 1st place so those monster ones ain't gonna happen...

as well.. snow blowers... a 4 stroke under 100-150cc would never work...

Ever seen a jet start... they put out more garbage in the air than a million of out 100cc or smaller engines ever will!

Yeah! Jered even the Nuclear Plants are Sopose to run 4 stroke now i Seen a 4 Stroke Lawnmore, Don't make much Noise as the 2 stroke Lawnmores..

And your right about the 4 strokes Being Real Heavy, it would be impossible to Trim the Grass HEHE :D

Snow blowers are 2 strokes Jered

Have there ever been a 4 stroke in a Snow Blower i seen one at sears the other Day, and some what like Walking Lawnmores.. but did not see a 4 stroke :eek:

that's what I mean...

Most lawn mowers are already available in 4 stroke... but are a heavy machine...

A snow blower needs more grunt power! A 4 stroke would never IMO anyway, move much snow unless it was HUGE!

Anyway... back on the subject.... I don't want a 4 stroke scooter... If I wanted a 4 stroke.. I'd have gotten 600 or bigger motorcycle...

Darn emissions laws...

oh ,and also you can't beat the simpleness,and modification potential of the the 2stroke engines.
