Is swimming good for your body?

Yes. Some consider swimming the best exercise. This assumes you are working at it not just floating on your back paddling. Swimming laps using a stroke such as the front crawl or the breast stroke, you use the muscles of your legs, arms, shoulders, buttocks and more. And the impact/pounding of bones and joints experienced in running, jogging are avoided. It also avoids the possibility of over heating.

Is a Suzuki lt185 2 stroke?

i have an 84 suzuki lt 185 quad, it is 4 stroke. so, "no" to your answer one way to see if something is 4 stroke is look on the engine, if it has ridges it is four stroke these are vents 2 strokes dont need them because they are often liquid cooled. another way to find out is a 2 stroke will have a big head pipe for that added "kick" a two stroke has over a 4 stroke. a two stroke often has a higher pitch (more annoying) noise, where a 4 stroke often has more of a low pitch dull sound to it (its alot more quiet).

Diffenerence between 2 stroke and 4 stroke?

The difference is in the amount of stokes the piston makes in one cycle. A four stroke will explode on one stroke turning the engine over. Then on the up stroke it pushes the exhaust out. The next down stroke fills the cylinder with fuel. On the final stroke the piston compresses the fuel and the cycle repeats. This results in four strokes of the piston. A two stroke has two strokes of the piston before it repeats the cycle. The first stroke is the explosion. The piston is pushed down. on the down stroke the piston reveals a port that exhausts, and then another port is revealed that fills the cylinder with fuel. the up stroke compresses the fuel and then the cycle repeats. The logical difference is the 2 stroke will accelerate faster
