What the heck I thought 2-smokes are evil and bad for the environment!

Sumptin ain't right! 👺
And yeah I'm too old to really care if they bring two strokes back but I think the Big Four really dropped the ball when they eliminated making them.
Flame away!
By the way I was channel surfing the other night and they had a snocross event on and these guys were really going at it and by the sound of the skis they sounded like two strokes but I don't know anything about that sport and was not sure. 😬
That was until the next race came up and the sound was definitely different as they were four strokes.
The next Moto that lined up was bikes snow ski kit mounted on they were all on 450's.

Yamaha stopped making “race” sleds after the Vmax 4 debacle....ISR changed the engine rules the next year after Yamaha spent big bucks developing that sled to dominate oval racing for years to come...
The team had requested to Japan to allow them to secretly run a Cat (or maybe Polaris) twin, but the decision was made not to do that...
They had fitted up a Snocross sled with a modified Yamaha watercraft twin, but never did race it.
I saw the snowbike and snowmobile racing on CBS Sports Network after the MXGP was over. Cool stuff!
Johnny Depp, how many Beta motorcycles / off-road threads have you started that were NOT in the off-road section?? Did you even know that VitalMX HAS an off-road section. :-)
They get some monetary value from not cleaning up beyond wheelie boys / sensitive threads. You are one of the many to take advantage of it by posting non-MX stuff in the MX subforum. Yes, I am thankful for your news and info on the off-road bikes, but you are NOT the one to yell "non-moto". :-)
Let's not forget my violation of the E-bikes in Moto. And Beta IS Moto.
Since Europe is going to 300 cc Bikes for a large part of Off-Road Riding, it's only a matter of time when we see 2-Stroke 350's, 400's or larger.
Its literally nothing.
Pit Row
Its a weird relationship between Cat and Yamaha.
It would also burn more fuel and oil by a wide margin. Ctec is a copycat of BRP`s E-tec direct injection system.

250 SX-F ENGINE
The 250 SX-F engine is known to be the strongest engine in its engine class. And with updates on valve timing, exhaust, airbox and EMS the entire power pack produces even more torque and power across the entire rpm range up to 14,000 rpm. Its compact architecture contributes to an excellent mass centralization. This supports the easy rideability of the bike together with a --------------------- (low weight of only 57 lb) -------------------------, including the incredibly beneficial electric starter.
