The comparison for Malaysia version of 2011 Yamaha 135LC Auto Clutch and Manual Clutch version are highly requested by readers. Maybe they need to compare between these two before they can choose what to buy. In my humble opinion (pada pendapat saya dengan rasa rendah diri), both bike are great, but the ES version are absolutely desirable. Very desirable. I think it can be a great replacement for Y125Z that has been stopped production. Anyhow, Y125Z is completely different beast because it is two-stroke bike. I’m guessing this ES will be next popular bike from Yamaha which can be placed along the legends like the RX-Z and Y125Z.
It will be ‘All Conquering’.
So, here it is:
Differences:
1. The foot protector in ‘P’ shape for ES is projected forward while the SS version is projected backward that looks like inverted P.
2. The crankcase design is difference. Maybe this show new crankcase design for ES version. SS version crankcase is the same like the 2006-2010 135LC version.
3. Kick starter also designed differently.
UPDATE (25/04/2011):
4. The wheel of ES is Enkei brand, SS is Yamaha brand.
5. The wheel of ES got wheel lining in red colour.
6. The wheel of ES in black colour, SS in gunmetal gray.

2-stroke engine gives out one-power stroke for every revolution, while 4-stroke engine gives out one-power stroke for every two revolution. 2-stroke engine is about 40% more powerful than the 4-stroke engine. Then, what if there is 1-stroke engine available? Does it means mono-stroke engine is 40% more powerful than the 2-stroke engine?
This article about mono-stroke engine or Bourke engine has been available for a long time in my bookmark but had been forgotten for a while until today. The engine is actually already available since 1920s, but I don’t know why there isn’t any company taking this design for further study.
The benefit of this Bourke engine are great. It got two power stroke per revolution. It happens to be an improved 2-stroke engine, with the advantage of no premixing the 2T oil into the combustion chamber. It is also high in efficiency as it produces only 80ppm of HC (hydrocarbon) and zero CO (carbon monoxide)!
For the experiment that has been done to a 400 cu. in (6.8liter) Bourke engine, it produces 200hp at 2000RPM with 500lb/ft (677.14Nm) of torque!
For comparison, Ferrari Enzo with 6.0 liter engine produces 660 PS (485 kW; 651 hp) at 7800 rpm and 657 N·m (485 lb·ft) at 5500 RPM.
As I read the article, it is said that Bourke engine are believed to be the “Most Efficient Form of Internal Combustion Engine”.
