Hi guys! Not sure if it's OK to post this here, but I did a search and found nothing. I've just posted this on my blog, and it may be of interest to you.

Like you said- "Not sure if it's OK"- but it is pretty cool.

Haha ... I've searched online and found nothing so who knows, my blog could be the only one on the net with this story. Apparently in Australia this 250cc 4-stroke in an RS125 125cc 2-stroke chassis, is going to be eligible for 125 GP races!

$12K for a 250 and you have to paint it yourself?

Not only that - you've got to submit a Resumé and application just to purchase the bike!

(but you DO get two free cases of oil, and a can of polish with the new bike!)

If you consider inflation that's not far off of the price that Yamaha charged for the old TD1 250cc track ready road racer back when they still sold it. It did come painted though.

The RS125 and 250s that Honda used to sell were only avaiable in white gelcoat. This keeps the tradition alive.
