Wait, its a two stroke?

All of the 360 family are. Straight twin cylinder two stroke air cooled. I dunno when they went four stroke, was probably fairly early on. The EA engine shows up in 1966 so 1970 may be one of the last EKs sold in North America.

Even the boxer design came later when they absorbed some other company, I forget the name.

Edit: Wikipedia says the Sambar ended in North America after '70 (unless I read that wrong); the EK straight twin was forced to become four stroke in '76. Just for giggles it also became SOHC during its life.

The fresh air vent and suicide doors are the coolest parts of the regular 360. Does the Sambar still have them?
