Default Twins? What's good?

Just wondering which brands are good and which ones to stay away from. I'm familiar with Saito and OS 4 strokes and the MVVS 2 strokes. Any others?

Laser V twins are very good.

How big a twin you talkin' about? I've heard good things about Saitos new 200ti inline twin so far. I am planning on getting one soon for my new H9 Mustang. Anyone running one of these yet?

I'm with hobbsy on tn this one. Laser's are about the finest you can get.

I recently purchased the new Saito 200TI in line twin for a Hanger9 150 size P-51D. The engine is very sweet and purrs like a kitten.

The first thing I did is change all the plugs (4 of them) to the OS F plug. The break in process is like all other Saito engines. Lots of fuel and low RPM's for the first few tanks. After 1 gallon of 15%, the engine is running very nice and sounds so cool.

The engine comes with quite a bit of hardware (motor mount, glow plug wrench that fits in between the valve covers, bolts and blind nuts and the standard Saito tool kit).

All in all I'm quite happy with this engine and can't wait to hear it in the air.
