So a GP rider will be expected to jump from a 125cc two stroke at 50 bhp to a 800cc (former MotoGP) bike with well over 200 bhp! That will definitely be entertaining. Sounds like the 600cc formula if it ever gets worked out will replace the 125's, not the 250's.
Wonder if this would force the WSB and national superbike series to 750cc displacement due to the prestige factor of MotoGP?

Where are you reading that? Moto2 is replacing 250s in 2010... I can't see anything in the RRW release saying anything other than that...

Yeah, I deserve a meatball for jumping that one (gotta remember to read first, THEN type). The spec engine is a Honda 600cc... http://www.crash.net/MotoGP/News/146..._contract.htmlOriginally Posted by gsnyder828
