Bikers in Taiwan are being encouraged to trade in their old two-stroke machines.

Two-stroke motorcycles that are at least seven years old can be exchanged for a cash subsidy of USD 50 per bike. The Taiwanese government has set aside USD 15.75 million for the scheme, aiming to phase out 350,000 aged two-stroke motorcycles to ease pollution.

So does that mean we are going to see a sudden importation of 2 smokers being imported by"astute" busness men wanting to make a few dollars?
Well were are the car graveyard for out of date, second hand ,high milage imports from >>over there>>>>.
A container full of cheap 2 smokers for the bucket racers could turn into a small industry for someone with some loose cash.

I will!

I have already been looking into going into business in the motorcycle industry, slow process that it is to get set up.

Can't say I know much about buckets but I'm an astute business man and I trust you Dave :P
