    pretty good idea, do u think many people will run 2 strokes over in the US?
    My choice is what I choose to do,
    And if I'm causing no harm, it shouldn't bother you.

    Hence why we don't see the two-strokes racing at the MotopGP there.

    And the sudden increase in 4 stroke outboard motors as the worlds biggest market bans 2 smokes.

    sad joke when the yanks drive around in their dirty big fuck off 24 litre V8 yank tanks

    Is a motoGP bike really going to be more eco friendly than a 250/125?

    The engine in the Dodge Viper is classed as a gas guzzler. Put the same engine in one of the big Wank Yank Land ships and its looses the gas guzzler label and the associated tax as its in a "truck" not a car.

    One advantage of the Ram’s pavement-crushing weight and cinder-block aerodynamics is that those are two identifying characteristics of a truck, and trucks are not subject to the federal gas-guzzler tax. So while the Viper and its 20 m.p.g. highway rating get hit with the guzzler label, a Ram SRT10 with the same engine but much worse fuel economy does not. But nobody ever said life was fair for Viper owners.

    Well then that must be a paticular rule with laguna seca, becayse they can still be used for closed course operation they just cant be registered, see attached link.
