I LOVE 2 strokes but there is know way he could have made the main! i bought a ktm 360 1997 that is a real fast bike ,i race the A class and guys i would beat easy on my 505 would be all over me if not they where in front of me! and this is know junked out bike ! all new with the suspension all done up ,it handled way better then my 505 sounds 10 times better but you just cant go as fast as long as you can on a thumper , and i have raced all years and had 250s ,380s,500s,200s,125s, and it would just not happen in the 450 class! it could be done in the 250 class though
