Not all two strokes sound like weedeaters. My ST 2300 has a nice bass growl, and doesn't sound out of place on a (kit bashed) warbird. My second favorite engine is a screaming tower .75 that is incongruously pulling a Senior Telemaster about. No it doesn't sound right to some but then again I prefer the sound of a screaming crotch rocket to a defening open piped Harley.

Rant: open pipes may save lives but they surely do annoy EVERYONE else.....
