250 HP 2-stroke

I thought this was pretty cool. Hopefully it's not a derby. I did look.

Really intriguing would be the 500HP 2.2 Litre 4 cylinder 2 stroke in something like an S2000.

I just wonder if that bike is as evil to ride as the old 500cc GP machines?

Looks like the perfect beginner's bike.

Probably even evil-er.

OK....

160 ft/pounds of torque from a 2 stroke?!?! That must be some kind of record!!

Of course if the Kawi is a little toooo much, there is the Yami...  " The next project? The 112-hp TSS500 engine installed in a Yamaha WR450 supermoto chassis. "There's nothing 'super' about a four-stroke supermoto,"

It's good to see someone picking up the two stroke gauntlet. I had high hopes when Bimoto first announced its direct injection 500 and Ford was working on two strokes with pressure fed bearings direct inj.  and it just all went away.

Anybody who doesn't just remember, but loves the smell of Castrol R and heyday of the TZ350/750 etc. has a soft spot for these things.

Good to see somebody doing something a little different.
