Hi guys, quick and silly question: where can I find any info on my motor in regards to the make year? I see the badge with a serial but no clear indication for MY... Any pointers?

Alan, thank you very much for your answer which clarifies many things for me and somehow I was under the impression that a 4 stroke is more powerful... so now probably better to stick with a 2 stroke...

PS: on facebook PPG groups I saw at least 2 V5's for sale

Hi guys,

I am a paraglider pilot (CP level) with around 30 hours of flying and living near Leamington Spa doesn't offer any hills within easy reach... so now I really want to get into this PPG and before taking a conversion course I really want to know as much as possible about engines and wings. Looking on the 2nd hand market there is quite a variety of engines and prices and one of the questions: is a 4 stroke suitable for a newbie? I am ok (I think) with the extra weight and it sounds these are more economical and also more quiet...
