our size. Laconia: 8 out of the
f irst 10 places in the 75 ·mile

When we f irst announced 5·port
power, we got mixed reactions:
"Hmm . , . really, . , good
for you ... yawn,"
. .
Suddenly, everybody's int erested,
Here's the difference with 5-port power:
In an ordinary 2·stroke engine , burnt gases
at the top of the combustion chamber keep
the fresh charge of fuel from completely filling
the chamber. Some of the fuel goes straight
out the exhaust port,
5·port power puts two extra ports at the back of
t he cyli nder. Fresh fuel swirls up into the top of the
chamber (not out the exhaust) . All t he burnt gases are
pushed out. The chamber is complete ly fill ed wit h fresh fuel.
