You should have said, "So are your best sales days!".   :-D

I think interest is growing. Hopefully the 17 KTMs will crack the injection barrier and start the ball rolling. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this four stroke nightmare will eventually end.  :-D

never gonna happen unless EVERY manufacturer gets on board...
the main reason they did away with the 500 class was because Yamaha and Suzuki didn't make a competitive open class bike...it was all Honda and Kawasaki, and KTM hung in there for a brief moment.
won't happen unless every one starts producing 2T's, so that everyone has the same even advantages/disadvantages, as far as seeing all the brands in full swing on 2T's in the AMA Pro races again.

umberto:
This is when umberto dreams, but here's what I hope happens. KTM producing a clean 2T makes the racing bodies reconsider banishing them. They went with the four strokes because they were more environmentally conscious.  Unfortunately they are heavy, expensive to maintain, and complicated.  This has hurt sales badly.  A clean 2T could be presented to the fans and racers as a step forward in technology.  They would still be easier to maintain, and cheaper to run for a season. Umberto heads to his Kawasaki dealership and buys a new KX 250 DI. All is right with the world.
