enduro4231 34 Posted October 19, 2005 what? &%$#@! are you talking about? engine size for the 125 class? learn to make a post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rokatt88 17 Posted October 19, 2005 Yup, He's right. The AMA is going to allow 2 stroke 125's to be kitted out to 144cc's except at Lorreta Lynn's. I got my e-mail from Rick last week! This is going to be interesting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest holt0224 Posted October 20, 2005 Was "allowed" the word you were looking for. There's this fancy little button at the bottom of every post-window that says Spell Check, push it once-in-a-while, it will not hurt. I promise. I suppose it wouldn't have helped though, yours is a grammatical error. I guess our schools are going to hell. Too bad, my wife is a teacher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cryzrider 236 Posted October 20, 2005 For some reason they're not allowing them in the "Lites" snicker class, but only amateur races from what I'm heard. Heck, why bother if they're not going to do it across the board. It should be closer to 160 anyway to make it fair. Typical AMA, they should concentrate on flat track. yawn Craigus Maximus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose it wouldn't have helped though, yours is a grammatical error. I guess our schools are going to hell. Too bad, my wife is a teacher. Perhaps your wife could give you a refresher course in the use of italics (as opposed to quotation marks) and apostrophes. As for the original post, allowing overbored 2 strokes is a good idea. Two years ago they were allowed here then, suddenly, displacement was limited to stock. I still have a CR 250 that was bored 2 mm over. Any word regarding whether or not the 250 2 strokes will be allowed to run a 265 cc bore? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jwriott 28 Posted October 20, 2005 Maybe I should buy a new 125 for my sons and put it away for trail riding in a couple years. A 144 would be a total rocket for a young kid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jwriott 28 Posted October 20, 2005 200SX Someone just sold one I may have wanted. I'm not sure what to do yet. My oldest is only 8. I can't have the wife thinking I bought another bike for myself now can I? I was thinking either an 85cc or 125cc. Either way I'm sure I'll, I mean they'll love riding it.

yzfrider51 10 Posted October 20, 2005 Wait two years and we will see 144s right off the floor haha too wierd! me and my friend thought the exact same thing yesterday. if they make those, do you think they will be as fast as the bored(sp) ones? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NOMADAK 82 Posted October 20, 2005 I have a RM134 for my son by WMR out of Florida. www.wmr1.com The things is an Absolute rocketship! Retains all of the positives of a 125 with that extra bit of umpff which allows you to run with the 250f's . Dynamite little weapon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RaptorRacer888 26 Posted October 20, 2005 OMG!!!!!111!!!1shift+1!11!!! Like you can run a 144, oh my gosh, like this is so new information. And you will still get owned my a 250F on starts with your little 144 2 stroke. Just face it, the 125 is going to become extinct. And if you don't want to face it, go ride a 125 and then a 250F back to back. You will not want to ride the 125 anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
