MadKaw:
just good to know:

1.AMERICA still builds a dirt bike.
2. there is still a BIG 2-stroke being made.

as the Jap. bikes start to phase out 2-smokers, we may start to see more of em.

PurPorc:
MadKaw, the bikes from ATK are actually imported German Maico's.
The Maico's are made by K?stler and they only make 2 strokes, from 250, 320, 500, 620 to 685cc.
But they're a little too expensive i guess, because i have never seen a new Maico on the street or on the track.

Anyway, this is their site if you want to have a look:

Go to 'Products', then 'to our e-shop', then under 'categories': 'motorcycles new/used' and then 'Maico new vehicles'

MadKaw:
