yeah i looked, it would have to be based off a kx-60 instead of the 85.

Those disc brakes and forks are awesome. I'm envious.

Roland Sands is one of my favorite bike builders:notworthy:
I wonder how they have the big single geared? Those motor don't like to be run on the top end too long. . .I guess that's what mechanics are for:notworthy:

i hope that it actually becomes a wera spec class, it would be something different.

It would be TMGP legal in the unlimited class and for the backwards races with the 85cc motor. If it had a 65 that would run in the superbike class I think

rulebook says 80cc 2 strokes. unless they changed their rules.

Next year it will be according to the site.

As for the 85cc, you can run in CMRA.

That would kick ass in CMRA mini's

:nod:

I never understood how the cmra minis worked. Is their a section in the rulebook where I can read up on this class. Which one is "better" cmra or tmgp?

both tmgp good racing and cheaper
cmra good racing on bigger tracks often too big, easy to move up to bigger bikes.

Both are great. TMGP is more geared towards the smaller cc minis because they run on kart tracks. The CMRA minis run on the big tracks so the extra cc's help out. Otherwise you can take a nap on the straights.

tmgp is probably better for minis.....if you have a mini, might as well run both. that's what i'm doing.

there's less competition in cmra....lots more people to battle with in tmgp, which makes it more fun

This bike is legal for TMGP unlimited in the sprints, but NOT for backwards (not this year).

85cc is the curent limit for smokers (there are several versions of the rules all over the website, look under the main page).

There are a bunch of already built similar bikes for sale all over the net, fron CRs to KXs, to YZs.

[Kingsnake1650]

Im pretty sure the rules have changed because they are alowing the 150R 4strokes. Those things KILL 85s so I know an 80 wouldnt stand a chance

The 85's have been faring better than one would think in TMGP this year. An 85 is leading the unlimited championship this year, and has won more often than not.

those bikes look sick!
