for artie Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 (edited) Most of the top world riders were in Spain for last weekends Spanish National in preparation for the upcoming worlds I noticed that there were seven factory riders on 4 strokes in the top 11 and only four riders on 2 strokes.

feetupfun Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 Perhaps the numbers would be different if the riders had their choice of riding two or four stroke. Being factory riders means that they usually don't get to choose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would Dougie have won another World Championship if the 4RT had come out two years later? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
