I think 350cc two stroke is a great sized engine....I remember riding a KTM 360 years ago, loved the power on that

I've been waiting for that to pop up on here, I have to admit that is a bad ass well thought out rendering. Who ever did that is very talented and put a lot of thought into it. I really like the frame and swing arm.... Almost looks like it could be a real prototype..... If only they would actually build it!

I'll be honest, I'm not much of a two-stroke guy. I have fun on 125s, but anything bigger doesn't keep me interested for long.

I'd sell both my bikes to buy that, and I'm a lifelong Honda guy.

its not going to happen, not even KTM who make small production run models sell a 2 stroke over 300cc,

I think (or at least hope) you're wrong on that. I'm a pretty committed 450 guy but if someone built a modern 350-400 2-stroke I would buy it in a heart beat. I completely don't give a shit about 2-stroke vs. 4-stroke squabbling but I do need to be able to roll out of a corner on the inside and easily double something - it's just the way I ride now (I'm almost 60). If that bike was real instead of an epic photoshop job I would buy it today.

Nice thing about a 350cc two stroke, it wouldn't have to be so high strung, and would most likely be very tractable and less explosive. I love my 250 with a heavy flywheel weight. Just wish it had a little more low end grunt.
Oh well, at least we can dream, right?

Ditch the dual pipe and change the fork tube colors and I'd go throw money at my dealer to be first on the list.

He got about 50 miles per gallon on that hog and it had about the same amount of emissions as a microwave.

I agree. I've mentioned it a few times here on Vital and get shat on for saying so, but I've heard whispers within the industry that there may be something in the works. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
