Too bad this topic didn't read "Are there any 4 strokes at Hangtown?" Miss the days of more rider technique and skill. And of course that sound.

Good looking bike! Best of luck to him on his highly displacement disadvantaged effort!! Seriously, a huge "Thank You" to everyone who shows up with a 2 stroke effort. Warms the heart!

Robbie Marshall will but on a 450. I don't know anything about the other 2 guys but they definitely won't be on those TSM bikes until the series swings east in June.

Haha, if you ride I bet you have been passed on the track by a "vintage" bike then...

yes, that is correct

TSM will only be doing east coast MX this summer, next summer however is a whole other story Evil Evil Evil

Almost certain marshall is doing all the nationals on a 450, with the exception of the 5 rounds with TSM

Also, next summer look to smell premix at every MX national

If all I rode were Honda's Id hate two strokes as much as you do. Honda hasn't made a 250 worth riding since the 90's. Around the late 90's Honda had a meeting that went something along the lines of "So, no more bottom end right? Like, just a horrid glugging sound like the bike wants to foul a plug or just lay off the side of the road somewhere to get shot right? That's what we're going for? Fuck it, we're Honda. At least the bottomless turd will be bulletproof."

don't mind Mr Wings, he's ecstatic that honda gave him an even heavier 250f, basically the same 450, and the joke of a 150f

its funny how few bikes the japanese manufacturers sell these days, all the whole ktm can't keep bikes in stock

my local dealerships get only a couple new bikes a year, up to 2 450's and maybe 2 250f's, because that's all they can sell

Are there some posts missing? I thought Josh was on here?

This could be a cool story but I knew this would turn into a 2 stroke circle jerk with the usual suspects just talking shit on anything Japanese or 4 stroke. Will you just ride the bike you want to ride and shut the fuck up about who rides what?

Anyways, good luck to Josh at Hangtown. That KTM has plenty of power and will be a blast ride on that track.

You're trolling but I'll come down under the bridge to talk.

I grasp common sense. A 2 stroke will do that to a guy. Double displacement because of a spark plug firing every 4th stroke instead of 2 is retarded.

Works good for garden tillers and riding lawn mowers though.
