RE: Honda leak announcement! The return of the CR 2-Strokes!

in #motocross7 years ago

OMG! That is going to be AMAZING! I'm getting ready to tell my age, but my first motorcycle was.... A CR 60!!! That's right, old school! I think they quit making them because they were unbelievably fast for small kids to be riding lol. I outgrew that and got a CR 80 and had a blast on that thing! Love the power band!

Haha dont let my username fool you @bluelightbandit :)
No honda stopped making them because of emissions and also they wanted to push forward with 4-Strokes. Some people say there was more money in them... so was a big factor but they are easier to ride, albiet more expensive to maintain...
Kids still ride 2 strokes until theh 85cc or 125cc classes now though.
