one huggge detail he left out is that 2 strokes have a huge belly on the header and 4 strokes do notAnswerIf the motor is running it's as easy as looking and listening. Looking for a little extra smoke (2 stroke) and listening deeper mellower sounding (4 strokes). The 2 stroke philosophy is kinda if it ain't smokin' it's broken.

Look for valve covers and external valve adjusting areas on a 4 stroke engine.Look for a separate injector-oil container (usually filled with a blueish /green oil) on the bike, or check the gas tank for evidence of pre-mix.(gas and oil mixed together) for a 2 stroke.The crankcases on a 2stroke shouldn't contain a separate oil filler either.

If I left out something I'm sure someone has more info.
