2 strokes will never die.

This would be cool, switch between 125 race and electric race each weekend. Add in a big name or 2 for a good showing and to say "I raced against..."
Sign up at the Alta demo days to win an entry into the race. Race ticket, pit pass, Alta VIP trackside area. That would be cool and a great marketing program.

Final nail? Did you read the whole article? All eight sentences?

Here's one of them:

"In any case, the MXE class isn’t expected to pose any threat to the traditional MX classes in terms of spectator appeal, and certainly not when it comes to sound."

If the electric bikes start getting round faster I know what I'll be watching

Judging by the page that posted this, this is fake news at this point.

Electric bikes wiill have their place. But they are not going to kill off anything.

if anything, history will repeat itself and 4-strokes will go the way of the Dodo.

ps... as a proud member of the 2-stroke Taliban, my next ride will be a brand new 450XC

I went to the County Fair this summer, and a bunch of old dudes were standing around watching their old steam engines run...I figured that will be me working on my two-stroke dirt bike in 20 years.
