    I heard about this a few days ago. Not too much info online at the time but with the world switching to electric, I think the bigger manufacturers want their last slice of profit from the 2 stroke riders. I'm all up for the latest 2 stroke tech! 😏

      I can't see this happening. It was Honda that started the decline of 2 strokes when they stopped racing them

      Current bikes:
      DT125X '07
      Street Triple R '11
      Aprilia ETV1000 '02

      Previous:

              I think the word waying not weighing gives it away

              Honda won't make another two stroke I'm certain of it

                @nottsbiker It's not even economical for them to.

                To be fair, I'd rather build my own CR500 using the 250f frame.

                For me, it'll be about the build rather than the end product.

                    @calum I share the enthusiasm but with out these bikes to begin with there would not be anything to build from so bring on the last of them so enthusiasts can take care and modify them and maybe the 2 stroke may still be around for a few more years before there garaged and in museums

                                All the older ktm 2 strokes were good however never ridden a new 1 and the idea they are fuel injecting them gives me the idea they will feel pretty tame

                                    @terry-tz You don't have to wait my friend, here's the 411. It goes like a bat out of hell, pull's like a locomotive and grips the berms like shit stuck on a toilet pan. If you need anymore than that, then please buy a trike!!! LOL 😉

                                        @andrewj1680 just did, loads of old articles spouting rumours?

                                        I'd love 2 strokes to make a return but I just don't see it happening. Particularly from Honda who weren't exactly famous for it in the first place
