Just to keep this thread from getting derailed I'll throw in my .02

People need to understand that the issue is not 2 strokes vs 4 strokes as in one is better than the other, but cc for cc equality which is obviously absent from todays pro racing.

2 strokes are great motocross bikes with their obvious pros and cons.

4 strokes are also great motocross bikes with their obvious pros and cons.

It is great that amateur motocross is progressive enough to level the playing field, but I'm talking about pro racing. Why not level the playing field? Can any four stroke junkie here give me a straight answer as to why you really need twice the displacement anymore? I mean a real logical answer as to why four strokes TODAY, still deserve their handicap that was given to them to actually make competitive.

I mean I thought two strokes sucked, that is what all you guys say especially Matthes, so why are you so diligent to keep them out of racing? If they suck then the results will show that, and no one would race them.

If you level the playing field, you give the consumer options. Consumers love choices, and it would make the racing absolutely fantastic, two strokes vs four strokes with different rider styles attributing to the various style and line choices, the passing would just be awesome.

But, like everything, it all comes down to $$$$ and the pro racing scene is all about that green. Sucks but that is life.

And the silence is deafening

God, imagine the fan factions if some teams ran 2T and other 4T. Holy hell, do they not realize how much [$$$$$$] that would add to the sport in spectator appeal? It would be worse then the Palio. Gravity Cavity could have 2T/4T sides to scream insults at each other..

Answers.......anyone.......anyone.....please, anyone?

Wow, some of the people in here really need to get a clue. I'm a fairly regular listener to the PulpMX show, and I've never heard Steve say two strokes were bad bikes. The rules make them uncompetitive, it's a fact, not his opinion. Would it be better if the rules were different? Sure, but why a bunch of overzealous people on a message board think that Steve should work to push their agenda, and risk being alienated by the teams and riders he needs to interact with to do his job...I have no idea what people are thinking.

The guy you fanatics tuned in to listen to admitted both on the show and these boards that the two stroke is not competitive with the four stroke for pro racing. I've read that some amateur clubs allow equal size two strokes to race with four strokes, yet most people prefer to race their four strokes because they're faster in lap time and less tiring to ride.

Even though my opinion backs Matthes, I have never bought a 4 stroke mx bike and it's not currently on my list for the next dirt bike either.

Some people.....really need to get a life. .
