blockbob Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Jeez! ordered an SY250 2 months ago & still not looking promising, anybody else in the same boat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel dabster Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 No 2t scorpas = no 2t engines. No engines means yamaha may not make any 2t unless the economics add up?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizza5 Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 No 2t scorpas = no 2t engines. Was that a guess??? My mate has been waitiing for one too having spoke to Birketts they are all lined up there waiting for despatch apart from the rear silencer!!!! Seems they had a bad batch come in and they didn't fit correctly so are waiting on the next batch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blockbob Posted July 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Yep i was told that: loads of bikes wiith no silencers! but apparently the supplier is strapped for cash & cant afford to make em!! but when do i bite the bullet & say sod it & wait for an 09, christ i might be going for a 4 banger yet {against my better judgement!) That sounds ominous about 2t engines though ooer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridgrunr Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Here in the states I was told I got the last SY250R in the the shipping container. Don't know if RYP is getting any more before the 2009's come out or not. I haven't even seen it yet as I've been TDY out of state, but had my buddy open the top of the crate to make sure it had the 40mm Marzocchi Alloy forks and all the parts. I've read some of the GG's have been showing up with Paiolis when they are supposed to have the Marazocchi's. He says it's sure pretty sitting there in the box. I should get to see it next week! Makes me wonder what's going to happen over the next couple of years. Can't get Montesa's, and the other manufacturers seem to be having supplier problems. I sure hope this settles down soon!

nigel dabster Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Mate, the raga is a limited edition and me along with others haven't been able to get them in europe for a month at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spud Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Was that a guess???My mate has been waitiing for one too having spoke to Birketts they are all lined up there waiting for despatch apart from the rear silencer!!!! Seems they had a bad batch come in and they didn't fit correctly so are waiting on the next batch! Still waiting myself and thanks for the info. This is a purely speculation could Scorpa be seeking to sell more 4t's rather than 2t's?.....i don't the ratio of 4t to 2t's sold world wide but there are more 07 2t's in my area than 4t's.....There must be a point when Scorpa (and perhaps other manufacturers) will drop there 2t's and perhaps this is the beginning....i hope not its odd the supply of the Scorpa is delayed i've never heard this before.

baldilocks Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Mate, the raga is a limited edition and me along with others haven't been able to get them in europe for a month at least. does this mean your ditching the Mont ?
