Is he hinting or daydreaming?

He loves two strokes.

Everyone should. MX was better with them.

If the cylinder was double the cc then you got something

I was wondering when this was going to show up on here. I'd love to see it but I'm not holding my breath.

If the manufacturers won't listen to us... maybe MC
Can talk some sense into them.
I've had 10 years of drinking the 4 stroke kool-aid.
I will never buy another one. Built a kx500 in a rm250 chassis last year. I love it but I'd rather just buy a new bike.
If this actually hit production, is it possible to get a kawasaki to turn like a Suzuki with different dog bones and triple clamps?

What is McGrath thinking? He is thinking he gets paid to be an ambassador to promote Kawasaki's. Here we are, talking and perpetuating on about a Kawasaki.

So far, so good.

Is this why MC left Honda? Say this is true, could a 450 fourstroke gain anymore cc's and be rideable?

A KX350 2-stroke would separate me from my money.

MC gets it. That's why he busted out a holeshot on a CR 250 led a while and said have it boys.

Thats my last memory of him racing SX.. Going out like a King. Head held high.

The fans loved it. And thats why MC was so loved.

Stew...he hates this shit. He needs to make it fun, get fan support and come back on a 2 stroke.
Win or lose, he's going to go out a peoples champ. And that's enough.

KTM, Husky, Yamaha, TM, and Beta all have new bike options....

So you're telling me people use to fly in private jets and get to race 2 strokes and actually have sex with their wives without being in a cast at least once a year?



Silly

Been saying it for two or three years now. A 350 two stroke could be the ultimate race bike... I'd buy it in as soon as it became available...without hesitation!

If Kawasaki made a bike like that I would buy it for sure. The last new two stroke engine design larger than 300cc was the KTM360 in 1996. The class structure worldwide makes a brand new design for a big two stroke enigne a hard sell, but I believe there is enough of a demand for it to be worthwile for at least one company.

The Maico custom thing in that pic above revs to like 3,500 and is basically a novelty antiquated tractor. Same thing with some of the bastardized franken-bikes that put old KX or CR500 engines in inappropriate frames.

New bike, new engine please.

For sure…but..he is talking about a Kawasaki that doesn't exist, which is an odd thing to do for a brand ambassador, hence my curiosity.

After the 360 KTM had a 380 for 3-4 years. I had a 2000 380EXC one of the most fun bikes ever, smooth power good turner and could blast the 4 strokes of it's era.
