While emanating from the MX scene, I am pleased to see that more and more folks are abandoning the exotic and expensive thumpers for 2 strokes. Less costly to buy and maintain, simplistic in operation and repair, and often more fun to ride, the 2 strokes are finding renewed interest in the racing crowd. Obviously MX has little to do with the ownership of a KDX, there is however a parrallel here in that both KDX owners and MX 2 stroke converts recognize good thing when they see it. It gives hope that the buying public are tired of acting like sheep by following the dictates of the commercial controlled media.
