Future for Gasgas 2 strokes
Any takes on what H=Gasgas might do to their 2 strokes for 2010 and so on?
I muself would love to see DI and e-start for 2010 but i dont see it happening.

I would also love to see DI, and the e-start has a growing appeal to me, but it's still not a priority. I'd love to see oil injection.
BUT, I've been bitten by media hype, along with my own curiosity for the exotic. The new dirt rider came, and unlike my normal, open, read from front to rear in a very sequential manner, I went straight to the Husaberg. Wow, I love the innovation, the fact that they even thought to chop the engine off and weld it to the top of the tranny. Killer. I also love the shameless way they took Cannondale's genius move to put the fuel cell under the seat, and making the air filter even bigger, and keeping it where the fuel cell would have been. I still prefer two strokes for many reasons, not the least of which is ease of maintenance and bulletproof reliability. If the day comes that I can't get a two stroke, count me in for the 'Berg.

I just reached the Berg article this morning and plan to read it next. Those bikes are real sexy.

They need a little 300-350 based motor version and a true 400 IMO. Hope the FI also works better than in other KTM's where there seems to be quite a few issues right now. Increasing gas capacity will also be a problem.
Definitely beautiful bikes though and love the blue. I'm so sick of orange/black and I'm a KTM guy from waaaaaaay back. Much prefer the retro colors. |
