Very cool, I hope they do well. I would imagine they will be on the 450 4stroke.....I know I will be following them.

If I had the cash I would have that bike!! that is one sweet 450! make one great ds bike. When they talked of the special order dakar bikes I actually contemplated selling my jeep for a used pickup and ordering the 450 with the extra tall 5 &6th gear.. The cost of 10K didn't sound out of line for what you were getting at the time.. but the vagueness of it all actually coming here to the US was a bit daunting.. that and the wife reminding me that we have bills to pay kept me from trying it.. still.... wish I had that instead of my "great pumpkin"

ANd yes, Lu Lu is still on Team Gas Gas: Important news announced the need for the views of all the rumors running around everywhere. Pour 2012 je porterai pour la 10?me ann?e les couleurs de Gasgas sans aucun changement pour moi. For 2012 I will carry for the 10th year the colors of Gasgas no change for me. La?a Sanz nous a rejoints dans le Team usine, la concurrence sera surement plus forte, mais c'est bien. Laia Sanz has joined us in the Factory Team, the competition will probably be stronger, but it's good.

the photo I saw of the team bike looked more like a Yamaha WR450 with GasGas stickers (check out photo on offroadchampions.com)

I think a 450 is the max engine size now. Last year they tried to change it to 450cc a few months before the race and their was a big upror so bikes bigger than 450cc had to run restricters.
