that was on a 125, the 150 KTM should more than take it up to the diesels ..... if you were a young guy trying to race and having to pay your own bills why wouldn't you want to be on a 2 stroke. The 2 strokes this year seem to have got a heap of development in Europe.

There's every chance that bike is already a 150 motocrosser with lights bolted on to make it look like an enduro model. Nearly all the pro enduro racers start with an mx bike and ad lights. And the fact that Meo is an exceptional rider helps...

Wouldn't have thought he'd get away with running a 150 unless they've changed the rules for 2 strokes to try & even things up

In most countries you can now run a 150 2stroke againt 250 4strokes... some countries like Aus and NZ you can race a 250 2stroke against a 250 4stroke

I noted that a 250twostroke ran against the 250 fourstroke at parramatta sx last year. My brother being a four stroker was not happy, but i was very happy to see it. Bring em back!

Recently Ricky Renner raced is '125' in the Daytona SX, he got up to 8th before DNF'ing. Lots thought he had ridden exceptionaly well on a 125 and turned out he had a basic Athena 144 kit on a yz 125.

If jesus had ridden, he would have rode a two stroke

It would be good to see the KTM team put one of there good riders on a SX250 in the nationals. It is a hole shot weapon against all the 250 4 strokes.
