I still think they should have been 250cc twins by rule........ better exhaust note and more RPM's.

Sounds kinda sporty when run alone. I wonder what a field of 30+ sounds like.

When in doubt, throw a party. Even if nobody shows up, you'll have a fridge full of beer and your house has never been cleaner.

84 kg and 35.5 HP fo the 250 4 stroke = 2.36kg/hp
28 Nm torque for the 250 = 3.00kg/Nm
71.5 kg and 32.3 hp for the RS125 2 stroker = 2.21kg/hp
24.5 Nm torque for the 125 = 2.91kg/Nm
So reasonable performance compared to the old smokers. We'll see how the torque affects the lap times. Maybe they can get on the gas earlier in the corner than the peakier 2 strokes?

Dunlop announced as exclusive tire supplier for Moto3. Don't know if any 125cc teams get special gumballs right now but a spec tire could make lap time comparisons between the "old" two-strokes and new thumpers slightly more difficult.

I would love to ride it but it sounds like crap. I agree with the OP it needs to be at least a twin.

The new 250 singles will sound like the contraption they used to start up that sweet old Honda. I can enjoy the sound of almost any engine configuration except a four-stroke single.

That's funny. I hear a field of supermotos and I think it sounds great.

I wonder how high the four-stroke racebikes will rev? KTM announced a Moto3 bike and I know they've had a 250 4T single MX bike with a 14K redline for a few years. I'd think the road race versions would go beyond that.
And count me in the group that likes the sound of modern four-stroke singles.
