    Oh that's pretty COOL!!!

    I thought you were going to post up this one:

    http://twostrokemotocross.com/2011/0...uel-injection/

    Check it out if anyone here has a two stroke they want to convert from Carb -> FI.

    I would REALLY love to see some clean burning 2-strokes.

    So, um. . why did they make it an 80 not an 85 as the rest of the class? I mean that seems like a simple question, but in that market surely people would see it as being old school as they have been making 85s for years. 80s are so last century. One wonders why that never came up. Just makes my spider sense tingle.

    So they wanted to plug a gap meaning it won't be competitive? But then claim the later engines that will meet Euro 4 will be considerably more potent? Have I read this wrong or is something wrong?
    Don't you look at my accountant.
