I have a couple ideas.....adjustable width a-arms and long travel shocks that compensate as well. Rear set-up the same. Variable timing for max power at any rpm. Engine oil separate from tranny oil....and the cassette type tranny like Cannondale used. A large CC engine with gobs of torque with a light weight design and likes too rev. Total wet weight under 375lbs. Maybe a true enclosed chain for less maintenance. Smart fuel injection that requires NO jetting when modding the bike. Thats just a few random thoughts.

I want it all, and more..........


I would want at least a 500cc two stroke with the direct injection technology that is now available. I would want at least 12" of travel front and rear. Wet weight to be about 400 pounds. It would need to be a pretty stable platform, so probably something along the size of the ds, maybe a bit narrower for the trail riders. Or like stated above something where you could adjust the width of it.

I would really like to see it come from the factory with at least 55 hp.

I would not care who made it, if I could buy a factory machine with 70hp I would be in line today with my money in hand.
