KTM 2-Stroke Fanatic

This article is a GREAT read! I have always preferred 2-stroke dirt bikes, both for weight and simplicity. It's no wonder the big four (red/yellow/green/blue) ALL gained a foothold in the US back around 1970 with inexpensive 2-stroke dirt bikes.

Honda did run the SL and XL bikes using 4-strokes, but remember all the rave once the CR and MR bikes came out? KTM has worked very hard to keep their 2-stroke bikes competitive and somewhat rider friendly... can't wait to check a DFI machine once available.

Nice work, Tim!
