In his Christmas vid. 2502T should be allowed in 250f, and possibly 125 class outdoors.

I always wondered how many more lites titles and premier class titles Barcia would have had if 4 strokes never existed.

Obviously 250f is better, but for privateers 2502t is possible. 85 to 250f is lame, need 125 class.

How many more titles would Bubba have is the real question

I reckon the lites should be 250 2/4t and then an open class to replace the current 450s.. that way you could have the elite 450 factory bikes, privateers on big bore 2t and allow electrics to show their worth. The factory 450s would still be the stars of the show, as they are superior, but it would allow privateers a chance to compete on something different.. maybe even break a few hearts..

The current regs have 3 new manufacturers coming in , why would you change them now ?

I think the best options for each class would remain 250f's and 450f's... but adding a little flavour wouldn't be a bad thing...

yes, after careful consideration of what word combination will yield the Deegan’s the most internet interest, ‘the general’ gave us his thoughts.  Next I’d like his opinion on the best path forward in Israel.

I'm sure the AMA was impatiently waiting for "the general" 's opinion on that matter to decide what they should do.

I, for one, am shocked he would take such an extreme and potentially unpopular stance. Brave.

So why not let 450TS in the open class? You see people converting CR 450F to a two stoke at several privateer locations.

I don't see why not. Owning a 500 two stroke conversion, I don't think it's any faster than a 450 because it's harder to ride and the vibration numbs my fingers. It's a nice garage queen/conversation piece like a classic car to me.

Sorry bud.  We're talking about real professional racing, not 2nd rate stuff in Australia that a fast B rider from California could dominate.

Don't count on it, I'm sure the manufacturers already tell them what to do, why would they want to listen to the racing community?
