"Gas Gas Motos Hi Troy Smith!! We'll keep using our two-stroke engine, this deal is more based on the four stroke one being able to sell them on the US. On two stroke will be focused on 125cc. Regards!"

Lets hope so. I don't facebook so I don't follow that stuff.

Not at all. It would benefit everyone involved and its just plain smart business.

BMW did not sell their 450 engine to KTM, only the 250 and 310. The Husqvarna/Speedbrain Rally team was using the BMW 450 engine on their bikes and they had to call it quits because BMW refused to sell more of those engines. It's natural to say it's BMW technology because some level of development of this engines was done in BMW's time and with BMW's M division tech like the optimized (red) head of the 310.

So my interpretation of "Italian" engines = 250/310 x-lite, 450/510 (NOT 449/511 series), 610/630, as well as ALL 2T's? Would this be correct?

I have the same assumption for "Italian" engines .
