(US Military bases are ove $4 per gallon, the locl economy is over 1.60 euro per liter!).

Fuel efficiency is the mantra today, not performance.

Thats about $2 AUD. Geezus thats madness. put 50 litres in your ute and thats 100 bucks thats rediculous. We pay about $1.5 AUD a litre here for 92 octane swill.

Lots of two strokes in magazines lately. You guys that ride off-road should check out Trail Rider. It is full of them.

Why wait, do it yourselves, the technology is already out there. I use a Link Atom computer on my MX twostroke. Rear transfer port injection, by staging the injection, fuel wastage is reduced, more power, wider power spread. Enough oil deposit on the transfer runs down to the crankcase to service the bigend. It's been running for about eight months now. Yes there has been may issues.

The bike I have fuel injected is Kawasaki 350 Bighorn 1973. This only a test hack. A VMX bike.

Ignore the bike. The EFI that it run's on now is off the shelf components, Link EFI, car injectors, bosch fuel pump, Subaru relief valve.   You can see the injector nozzles in the in the back of the crankcase ( x2).

You can see the injector bodies in the intake cavity behind the cylinder.

Flywheel side, one censor run's the ignition ( Ignitec ) and the other run's the EFI system using a 12 minus 1 trigger wheel.

This bike has a vairable rotary valve housing operated by the Ignitec ignition. From 55 degrees valve closing at low speed to 78 Degrees at full throttle.

Fueling changes. Link EFI has the ability to change the fueling as the head temp changes. With Ethanol the fuel requirement changes above 70 degrees C,  more fuel required. This can be changed on a graph that uses TPS and Temp. This information is overlaid the main fuel map. Very handy with an air cooled engine.
