Yep HA2... that's it... We'll just have to open up a can a' whoop a$$ on a few new TRX450R's..
The YFZ's aren't all that, I raced one (FOB - fresh off the boat - completely stock) at pismo last weekend... I got beat - but the guy had paddles, and I had turf tamers. It was maybe three bike lengths - consistently. He couldn't believe it - my puny little 1985 $1750 bike could keep up. I told him he should sell his piece of four stroke and get a 250R, then take the money left over and buy another 250R for his wife. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
Besides - those damn big bores are too damn loud. I'd much rather hear a small 250cc two stroke at 2 in the morning than a loud obnoxious 450 four stroke.

They can take my 2-stroke from when they pull my rotting carcass off the seat. I say ride what you got; 2-stroke/4-stroke, no-stroke. The simple fact is when or if they outlaw 2-strokes they won't stop there. Next they'll be looking at that custom hotrod you've spent half your life to restore, and after that ???
