[QUOTE="weimedog, post: 93228, member: 20655"] Thank god for all those people more into image than results. Just because its (The KX) ten years old doesn't mean its a bad design. Just because its brand new doesn't make it a good design. What you are seeing is a good 10 year old design competitive with the newest and best motor design the rest can spend millions buying. Thats worth recognition. I have nothing against advance. I try to support advance with my dollars when I can. But I do it understanding why. No image problem here. Buy what I want. Hopefully everyone has that opportunity. The point of my entry is a celebration of those old big bore two strokes that got legislated out of the mainstream and how even now the latest and greatest hasn't put them out of business. In fact from a performance point of veiw they are still awesome. Put them in a late model frame...for certain types of riding they are untouchable. Whats offensive about that? Why does that get certain folks bent outa shape? Unless it pokes through the ego of some idiot who just figured out his wonder bike is ten HP down and is half as reliable as a 10 year old dinosaur! And I am grateful to all those out there who spend their hard earned bucks on trends and fads defined by the larger marketing organizations. Its what funds advaces in technology. Its what keeps the aftermarket folks doing what they do. Its what keeps Ricky and the rest in business to put on a show and its also what funded the switch to four strokes. ( Before it got legislated by a higher authority than the AMA) But again I know why I spend my money this way. I don't do it because of peer pressure, magazines, marketing, or any of that fad derived crap. I buy what I feel like because motorcycles is pure recreation. Its supposed to be fun. And I am enjoying this four stroke revolution as much as I did the suspension revolution in the 70's. So I will fund the development with my dollars even as I appreciate the greatness of a past design. [/QUOTE]
