4-stroke is where it's at - no stupid premix, no constant motor tinkering, better longevity/reliability, colder starting, etc.The level of suspension is solely up to the buyer/riders intended use. Personally, I wouldn't waste my time on even the RT100, but even my style of trail riding is more aggressive than just riding a fence line. But if it works for you, go for it.

I'm of the opposite opinion. 2t's are easy to work on, cheap to maintain, and a hoot to ride. When I was riding hare scrambles, it cost me a whopping $5 to change the transmission oil every 100 miles. Valve adjustment? What valves! Top end job? About $150. Compare those costs to 4t oil changes, valve adjustments, and God forbid top end, and 2t's win in my book. But, to each his own. 4t's do indeed rule the roost in MX and GP.
