Title: AMA Homologation Rules

This is why i think the AMA Homologation rules are bullshit.
There are plenty of good "common" bikes that are made illegal just to keep the big 5 happy.
I for 1 would like to see every manufactor out on the track.
It happens in Europe/Australasia etc but not in the US. >:(

The AMA's rules won't be perfect until you can ride a 1978 Maico 440 against a 2011 CRF450.  The wisdom of doing this in professional championship racing is up to you, but it should be legal regardless.

Did the homologation rules change with the production rule in 86?

I imagine something like this!

"No, a ktm 150sx can't compete against 250f! the bike is gonna rip on track and team managers get fucked up cause they spent 50grand in an engine and other 50grand in a rider to get smoked!"

Up yours AMA! Motocross is getting too mainstream sport. It looks like european soccer..

The 150sx isn't allowed but the older 06 125sx is allowed?  :-X? No shock with older 4 strokes not being legal, they don't want any "incidents".

The 06 kx125 isn't allowed either, since it is more than 2 years old.
