Whaaat, they’ll allow a TM out there? I don’t know anything about the rules for the 125 racing.

Also, isn’t RV gonna be out there this weekend too?

There was at least 1 TM in the race last year, so I imagine it should be fine

I think it’s anything as long as it’s new. No old buck and a quarters tho. Saw some posts giving Davie static because you can’t run a old cr, rm or kx.

Pretty sure the rule is it can be any be any brand so long as it's within like 3 years of the newest version of that bike or something.

That TM is bitchin though.

The statement on MX Sports says the final three years of production for those manufacturer's who no longer produce them. Could it be argued that the final three years of the old factory works bike models (RC's, SR's, OW's) are legal according to the rules?? They were a different model from the normal consumer models.

I don't think this was the intent but would be way cool to see if it were allowed.

You're correct. I thought it was 5 years for all the manufacturers.

Under the current rules the bikes must be production based model so works bike would not be allowed. Would be cool but either way I'm just pumped there's 2 strokes racing again.

I've seen the question asked a few times so here's a screenshot with the details.

If it has a 125 pipe, it should be legal for this exhibition stuff.

I'm sure they intended for it to be the higher volume production models available to the public. I think the Can Am 125MX could be allowed though since Can Am still builds motorcycles Smile .

I think that it should be kept to brands that currently offer 125's. Why not help them get more sales? Either way though we all win!

I agree with this but I'm sure it would make it harder to get some of the bigger name/faster guys out there I would think...

Looking forward to standing track side with my 13 year old daughter and 14 year old nephew who both love riding. Been pumping them up for the 125 race. Looking forward to the show! Smile

Probably just a revalve and respring, the KYB stock to works fork isn't a huge difference in the sense of internal parts.

Bullshit! Factory forks, A-kit forks and Cone Valve forks are filled with a special oil squeezed from the bones of a unicorn and are manufactured in a factory by Leprechauns at the end of a rainbow. Just because this is Vital, you don't have to lie
