Not sure if there has been a topic on this before but i couldnt find one anyways so...............

Just wondering, went to nord vue yesterday, apart from cabestany, the sherco and beta riders were on 2 strokes. Just wondering why dougie, brown, wigg and all the others dont ride the 4 strokes. obvioulsy the gasgas and montesa riders dont get a choice

also in club trials, most people seem to still buy 2 strokes, maybe due to cost? I dunno

when the gasgas 4 stroke comes out, will raga ride it, or stick with the 2 stroke?

Whats your thoughts?

I think at club level cost is the biggest factor, also the fear of change? A lot of people don't like the idea of 4t don't know why?


Don't think raga will be on the 4t until it has been developed, and they know it can win.

It's like being a factory rider but you drink more beer and your score doesn't matter.

You're right in saying that the diesels have become a very rare sight again, must be a few guys unable to afford to run their monts now because they no longer show up :rotfl:

Good thing tho because last thing we need is the horrible things getting us kicked off venues due to excess noise like happens in mx
