Most recent two strokes are 50cc like the pre2013 Yamaha Zuma and some 50cc Aprilias and Kymcos.
The Genuine Stella was a 150cc two stroke until a few years back, if memory serves.
-My opinion is that if you plan to ride a 50cc scoot, I would get a two stroke, even if I have to buy a used one. For bigger scoots like 125cc and above, I would stick with a four stroke. Just my opinion.

I had two stroke motorcycles for years. A tank of oil in mine lasted 600 miles. Hypothetically since it fires on every stroke a two stroke can put out the power of a four stroke twice the size. They also weigh less. On the down side since the oil is contaminated by gas piston rings may not last as long as four stroke's.

BUT. That usually means they'll only last 20,000 miles in normal use and darn few people keep them that long.
