Put a two stoke motor in the 250f frame. Piece of cake.

Maybe they will turn the engine around...

How would that work?

I was thinking the same haha I sold my '09, but if they come out with new ones, I might have to fork over the stolen cash for one.

Likely true. Most kids on 80's ride KX85s or YZ85s (most of what I see, anyway), so with Kawasaki coming out with new minis, I'm sure Yamaha could put in the exhausting amount of R&D to update their 85.

Also, with how much work they've put into their 250 and 450 bikes, I can't imagine there was any time/budget room for 2-strokes.

Keefer said on pulp he saw the new bikes but there is a gag order out on them, so I think it is a pretty solid rumor.

Damn right, Including one for me.

If they sell out, would this open the door for Kawi and Suzuki? Honda is a hopeless case.

OMG! If they do direct injection and bring back the steel frames they won't be able to make enuf for the demand. The Pros will all switch over to them for sur. Suks that the dealer is closed today for the holiday. I am going down tomorrow to see if I can pre-order !

I do not see it happening. Not while they can currently sell the shit out of what they already have and do zero R&D. but I would be all for it, and wish it to be true as much as the next guy.

wtf that's a trials tire and wheel and it's as big as the front wheel. The frames don't match up.

Wait, that's the back half of a blue ktm 350 and the front half of a yz250
