How come no big bore MX class?

How come no big bore MX class?
I was just wondering why there is not a class for quads that are 600+ cc (or even 500+ cc), I know there is the open class where anyone can run what they want (i.e. raptors vs. z400 vs. YFZ vs. etc, etc..) but how come not a class for only the big bikes. I know this would basically be the DS, Raptor, and Vforce (maybe Predator) and some hybrids that people put together....and maybe honda if they ever come out with the 650ex (wishful thinking there). Is it all based on demand at the racing level as far as what people are bringing to the track, or what people want to watch? I guess I was thinking of it like watching heavyweight boxers in a match......they are not as fast or nimble as the lite or middle weights, but they are exciting to watch. I was just curious about this because if my Raptor dont sell in the next month I will start modding it to be somewhat of a MX bike, and as far as I know the only class avaible for the Raptor is open class. Anyone have any ideas or input......

Not sure if you are understanding what I am asking, is there not a class to keep out the smaller machines, like the yfz450, 450R, and other built up z400s and 400exs. Maybe Im missunderstanding you but it sounded like you were stating what I had put in my 1st post concering how the open class is set up now....sorry for any confusion[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

There should not be any Z's or 450's in the open class. If a track is letting a quad of 450 or smaller in the class it is there choice. The class should be run like what you are talking about. The quads that you listed are not supposed to be in the open class, but again some tracks will let them in.

I put in "maybe" depending on the class breakdown, if the class was 600cc or above then this would exclude the predator....unless someone had a worked up one that was built over 600cc. I was not implying that any of the big bores were better then another. Everyone has their own preference for a ride...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
