I heard they were banning 2-strokes, but why? ?

Are they going to make them Illegal or somthing? I want a Shee and that would piss me off if I could not get one!

actually, according to what i just read on the EPA website that is not corect... see this page.. its the average, similar to CAFE laws on auto manufacturers
EPA ATV FAQ (http://www.epa.gov/otaq/regs/nonroad/proposal/f01027.pdf)


but remember this is america, and were supposed to be free... isn't the EPA is taking away our freedom of (purchasing) choice

That was about the biggest load of BS ive ever heard. Unless I missunderstood, it said that you have to convert your 2-stroke to a 4-stroke?!?!?!? How gay would that be! Well im still gonna get me a Banshee.
