On that note. How many over seas 2 stroke builders are sending stuff to the USA?(by the way the TSS was a bust so it doesn't count) Ok, how many 2 stroke builders here are sending to Europe, UK, UAE, South America, Puerto Rico, Finland, Canada, etc..... Give Cam a handful of the Aprillas and a track with a GP rider and I bet those GP fellas will be sticker bombing fairings with Redline.

Its only fair to mention that factory teams have the luxury of designing from scratch. ..cases, trans style and layout, all of it. So its only fair to keep the context of this discussion strictly about banshee based engines.

i dont think it would be so simple to improve the best cylinder in history. surely many have tried and failed. rsa design is copied often for use on other engines

It doesnt relate "across the board" in regards to comparing a (factory) race teams R& D team, who can design an engine from scratch and dictate every specification, to a builder here in the US who is limited to a banshee based engine, where certain things cannot be changed.

The transfer area: bore ratio is huge. That's hard to do on a Banshee. Even spread bores don't have that much transfer area relative to the bore. .

125 just under 60hp is no joke

This qoute is what I was referring to. Those HP to CC ratios just arent possible in a N/A banshee based engine format....due to the constraints of the oem designed layout. ..but if you can show me an overseas builder doing that, I'll be the first to take back what I said.
