 too bad they were one of the biggest mistakes in motocross...next to the Cannondale.

It still surprises me that Sherco (France), Gas Gas and Beta (Spain), and KTM (Austria) can build bikes and import them into this country and we don't have one domestic dirt bike manufacturer.  We can make ATVs and UTVs, but no dirt bikes.  It's kind of sad really, none of those European countries are industrial powerhouses or anything.

it's even sader that norway produced a dirtbike (tempo cross) but had to stop in the 60's i can only imagene what it could have been,

however isn't atk still making bikes?

umberto:
Their website only lists street bikes anymore, and those say 2014 models.

umberto:
About all you can get from American "manufacturers" is Chinese made stuff.  Pitster Pro makes a decent little bike, but they don't have a big bike program.  Unless you count this bike that looks to be a Honda knock off.  It looks like they are having trouble getting them in the country, it still says "available November 2013".   :roll:
