Listening to the Weege podcast, everyone mentions the bike is "total different" and "like nothing else". 

What is the difference do you think?

2 cylinders? Hybrid drive? Front Intake? Twin shock?

It’s a 2-stroke AND a 4-stroke for a jaw dropping 6-strokes! Just waiting on it to be homomogulglated.

Yeah I'm thinking the frame, maybe a steel trellis design? Wouldn't be twin cylinders that shiz is banned I believe.

Definitely some eccentricities on this bike:
👑 Comes equipped with something called "tyres"
👑 Seat and side covers made of a rich combination of tartan wool and tweed
👑 Requires proprietary HP sauce based crankcase lubricant
👑 4 ECU maps: smooth, standard, aggressive, and bloody mental innit!
👑 Only current mx bike that wears a hat

I literally heard there is some type of mechanism on the bike from one of the test riders, where you literally will NOT have to change air filters.  

Before the dirt even gets sucked in and to the filter itself, it's already gone?   I'm too dumb for this stuff, but I can't wait to see how it works...

I have also heard things like, the button to start the bike, or turn it off, is just putting your finger over the circular area, there's no actual pressing of the buttons ( i guess kinda like how phones evolved, the screens were touch screen ish, now our fingers just glide over the buttons and don't press or feel anything to do so)

I bet one thing.....................its going to cost a lot of money!!!!  I'm guessing by the time they hit showroom floors.................if they ever do its going to be a 15k MSRP or better.

Carbon fiber frame so light they can put thr weight into the motor and it makes so much torque it will get every holeshot.  In addition the shift lever is moved to the tank and you shift with your cock.

Only thing that would do that is a cyclone type pre-cleaner..

In the SxS world is the particle separator. Don't really know how it works, but it's supposed separate and remove the dust to allow only clean air to the intake. Very expensive but is supposed to work really good. Maybe some version.

It's British.  Will have a total loss oiling system (just measure what's on the floor) and mapping by Lucas, the Prince of Darkness.

Plus some special Whitworth fasteners.

Wonder what a chunk of mud does ?  Do you have to take your gloves off to shut it off ? 

A 6 stroke ? Is that a twin that's a 2 stroke on one side with the exhaust ram inducting the 4 stroke other side ? Laughing

Zero insider knowledge here but I’m going to guess some kind of metal/composite frame combination.  Based on the way manufacturing is going and some of the things we’ve seen in the bicycle world this seems like the next logical step to me.

I’ve also heard it comes with the grips safety wired, stock. But, instead of safety wire they’re using dental floss
