Have you guys seen this new radical design from OSSA? A reverse designed fuel injected 250cc 2 stroke.

Swingarm and Frame construction looks kinda funky.

Interesting, like the FI smoker technology.

Looks like the goal is to have a pre-series of 20 units for importers in early 2013

Wow, awesome. Kind of unexpected good news. Front fender doesn't look too bad.

That bike looks awesome. Love all the "new" engineering aspects of the bike. I dig the non traditional way of thinking. And I hope this design is a benefit and accepted by the industry.

But...


In recent history, too often, we have seem truly wonderful and promising designs get canned and shelved for whatever reasons. Or just don't sell well enough to keep alive.

Cannondale

BMW

Husaberg

Are some that come to mind.

We'll see.

I agree. Would be cool to see where the technology would be.

That is a sexy bike! It's funny how new 2-strokes just sweat trickness, while new 4-strokes are "oh, boring."
