Thats very interesting especially the KTM play, given the not so welcomed feeling they got from the factory workers on their visit.

I'll be watching.

The KTM behind scenes agreement with IRG now looks not more than just a rumor.

Translated:
KTM has stated that it is behind the IRG investor group . The information published yesterday EnduroPro has reached the upper echelons of the house in orange and have made ​​it known that they are not interested in the acquisition of Gas Gas brand and have no link whatsoever with the Catalan group IRG.

Went on a little rant ,sorry . I hope GAS GAS will use KYB or anything but WP ,The suspension is my driving force to buy GG . If they go WP may as well by a Sherco ! did you ever here a KTM guy gush over his suspension and mean it ?

Be nice if they went back to full Ohlins.

Though I have heard the Rieger is pretty darn good. Funny how some guys get upset over color, though. It just happens to be the shool's colors where the better half works...

I dunno, if they get the range figured out...I don't have a problem with it...instant torque from 0 RPM would be sweet.

Now that I am getting older, the quieter I want my bikes. Think if the noise was turned way down, most of our problems with other user groups will become less.

Sure you can't please everyone, but...

I really hate to be the wet blanket here but Gas Gas is nowhere close to being ready to bring this platform into production. When we first got news of GG getting this technology over a year ago, I was pretty stoked. (After all, I have a bit of history involved) but in reality...this "Concept Bike" needs to be shelved until they can get back on their feet and actually support their 2 stroke line with better fill rates on parts, and an actual tech dept at the factory. They have much more important things to do right now, other than putting out a 4 stroke they have zero test time invested in, and more so, a model that had it's fair share of problems that were never fixed by the previous manufacturer.

Well stated. I would think that ensuring that the brand survives would be priority #1. Throwing their eggs into the four stroke basket is part of what got GAS GAS into financial trouble in the first place, if I am not mistaken..
