It's good to see people out there willing to push and develope the 500. There are so many things that the 2 stroke has going for it. It would be good to one day see a big company develope them again.

KTM has been trying to develop direct injection for a number of years now. Will they go 500? I doubt it. I'm just amazed how a few backyard mechanics and a laptop can accomplish so much without all the money!
