This is a great example of what riders choose with no homologation and cc rules. :)

Only 2 4-strokes. There are 2 350s listed. Everything else is a 250 or 300 2-stroke. Awesome. Next time someone tells you pros choose to ride 4-strokes because they are better, copy and paste this list.

During this year's industry propaganda basted "Daytona Foopercross", Ricky Carmichael and Chad Reed were both helping to announce the event on TV. Ricky was doing a good job holding the 4 Stroke bullshit line, doing his part for his patrons in the industry.

He said something like, "These new bikes are just incredible... I remember when we all chose to switch to the 4 Strokes...." AT WHICH POINT CHAD REED CUT IN AND SAID- "Well,... actually we were all kind of forced into that..."

What? With all those KaToom entries you would think one of those tough guys would have hand the cajones to ride a 380. What is wrong with this picture?  ;D

Good for him. As I recall, it was the top FACTORY riders that were the last to switch to 4-strokes.
