I think adding single cyclinder 250 four strokes would be a good benifit aswell. often not as powerful as the twins...but mostly lighter. would be compeditive I would imagine.

All the modern development of 250 singles has gone into chook chasers. A WR250... I don't think you could touch that even with a GPX250. I think the tyre rules would prevent a `motard' from running though?

I would happily punt a nz250, cbx250 ,cbr250 rs against the new ones...they all weigh next to nothing...and resonably peppy!! be theres a few broken arse ones on trademe from time to time...cheaper than a hyosung,vtr250 etc

Something positive for a change eh! Good stuff.

You'd look good on a GN250

Anyone know what the best 250 twin would be? I imagine a couple of hp would be decisive...
2 weird 2 live, 2 rare 2 die.
honda spada, hands down

the 1988-1998 gpx250 [more powerful and ligher than current flashy ninja 250]
Vt 250 spada, vtr250f...those would be my guess's...based on weight and HP...all of the about weight less than new 250 twins and make the same or more HP.
Jam and tarts....
spada = 40hp/28nm
vt250f2 = 43hp and no torque. not that it matters.

Don't y'all forget the first sentence in the rule there.
My feeling is that bikes like Spada 250 would be classed as a Grey Import and therefore not 'homologated'???

ALSO, this is NOT even a genuine thing yet? It could change after the AGM, as per the current idea RE different set up levels for class within a class racing Superbike and 600 rules etc
Paul Stewart has written the new rules, but they still might get changed after the AGM?

Jam and tarts....
