Would be cool if they actually did make one.
Being the smallest of the jap manufactors it should be easier to bring something new out.

What to do, what to do.? ::)
We have wharehouses full of our state of the art 4 strokes that we can't sell. :-[
But we can't make 1 of those old fashion smoker bikes that still kick our state of the art 4 stroke butt. ::)
Or can we.  ??? KTM cant keep them in the shops. ::)
No no we must keep going with our incredibly expensive state of the art 4 strokes.
Surely there is some people left we can fool. :(
I have heard a rumor some people like 2 strokes. Could that be true. ???
No no we must keep going with our incredibly expensive state of the art 4 stroke's.
Hey boss, didn't you work for Honda ?

"Over heard in the Kawasaki tea room's."

P.S While they are at it bring out a 2012 KDX200 & 300.
Offroad bikes are selling,MX are not.

Will never happen. Once a Japanese man/women makes up their mind, thats it, and there is no way that they are wrong 'cough' Honda Disliking 2 strokes for 50 years 'cough'.  Look at japan in World War 2, the entire country was for it. They started with an explosion, and ended with one.

Another thing is the fact that bikes weren't actually selling. The fact that people were making loans made manufacturers realize that they could sell anything for any amount and paid for through payments(this is called greed), but what they didn't understand that all it was, was a short term gain, and there would be fall out when people couldn't pay for the bike they really couldn't afford. This is their undoing, and this is also housing industry undoing.

X2 on that!
I've said it before also;
It's the kamikaze harakiri mentality.
They either win this holy war, or they go broke and die wilst trying...
Thats why I won't buy anything from them anymore. :D  :)

Uhh well this is business we're talking here. They changed their minds to switch from two stroke to four stroke so why can't they change it back?

If you take your KX250F rolling chassis to Belgian Jadoul Kawasaki dealer,
they will do a kx250 2T conversion for you.

This bike will be doing some Belgian championship races soon;

If the OEM's don't give us the bikes we want,
we will have to look for hobbyist in a shed, or do it ourselves.
