    Dizzam, and just after I got Daisy too! Good thing, it's great fun to ride two-stroker smokers!

    Sorry to disagree but I doubtthey will go whatabout KTm they are developing there engines in 2 stroke using fuel injection and are going to release there 125GP to the market I doubt that would be the end of 2 strokes big companys like them wouldnt waste there time on them developing a engine that is going to die.

    Also Aprilia are developing there engines in 2 strokes


    If you havent noticed Yamaha and Honda stop making 2 strokes,
    Yamaha owns Rossi
    Honda want to beat Yamaha and Rossi
    It kinda adds up when you work out that all there money is running into these engines and riders


    Honda quit making 2 strokes and devolping them about the same time Rossi goes to Yamaha

    Same with Yamaha


    Everything goes back to Moto GP


    Aprilia and KTM tho


    They dont race Moto GP and what happens they start devolping the best 125 and 250 GP bikes

    And then start working on ways to make the 2 stroke engine cleaner but still fast and are developing to beateach other

    The Invention of GP racing data loggers and Det Counters

    All add to the development o 2 strokes to cut emissions and then data log engine to see wether or not its a power loss


    Dont look at the Japanese market look at the Europeon market
    Blindspott are back as Blacklist check them out

    2 Strokes are far from dead. Making a comeback if anything in the outboard motor market.

    Ha ha see the 4 stroke get owned

    Yes I know it's not a bike but you can see where this could lead to. If public perception of 2 strokes as being bad for the enviroment can be changed. Then thats probably the biggest battle.

    Also for those that don't know, these 2 stroke outboards are easily as clean burning as the 4 strokes and meet the same emission standards.
