They arent banned, theres just new emission laws. The manafactuers are too lazy to upgrade the 2 strokes to meet em. Not gonna stop me from riding my two strokes.

They never could ban the use of them. But they could the sales of them by dealers which they will do in 3 or 4 years

Yep pretty sure 2006 is it. If I were Yamaha I would make a banshee 500 and go out with a bang.

What's that going to mean for the snowmobiles? Most all of them are still 2 stroke.
