[QUOTE="skiz, post: 1423158, member: 119909"] [b]I just read this[/b] on this link [url]http://www.fim-live.com/en/sport/vintage/vintage-news-detail/article/1275383389-history-of-individual-motocross-world-championships/[/url] "Eighties: the turning point..... End 1983, an earthquake shook the world of Motocross: Suzuki announced its withdrawal from the 500cc and the other companies reduced their budget..... But at the beginning of the 90s the 500cc class was declining more and more. The manufacturers concentrated their (reduced) investments in the 250cc class (except maybe the Europeans). And the 250cc became the top class: all the first riders in the classification were riders supported by the factories." Does anybody know know what drove Suzukis decision + why were all of the other manufacturers eager to follow ? [/QUOTE]
