Greetings:

Very businesslike. You can bet with all the top-shelf carbon exotica it won't be cheap. Microprocessor-controlled direct injection meters fuel to near-perfection, reducing Hydrocarbon emissions. I'll bet it has a recirculating lubrication system too. But will it retain that intoxicating 2-stroke smell?

Price is in the $50k range. Certainly out of reach for the typical consumer. The most intriguing part is that 2t hasnt been completely abandoned and left for the history books. So many companies investing every cent into electric motor advancements (4t also) to keep up with competitors, its nice to see this being produced.

Id love to be a fly on the wall in the boardroom when the pitch was made on its’ inception....”long lifespan? PFFFT!..high MPG? BAAAH!..We want big nutts and raw power, dammit!”.....”ok, build it” :lol:
