“Hi John,

Love your site. Some great articles on there, especially the one that
exposes the old EPA chestnut. Good on you man! You write well.

And this is exactly the fighting spirit that so many of our customers
exhibit, there are dozens of them in the US figuring out ways to get their
RS500s road titled … Endlessly devious, crafty ways. I love it!

The more that time goes on and the more mail I get about our 1100cc triple
monster, the more I realize that in fact, the RS500 most likely will not be
our biggest product. Because they were never road-homologated in the States,
whereas the ZX-10R is, and therefore there’s more of a basis for flying
under the radar so to speak.

And for sure, there are worse enviro-social ills than a few two-stroke
bikes! Just try asking a trucker how much engine oil he burns on a trip
across America, not to mention all the Nox and puthering clouds of carbon
… And the whole global warming thing is just a scam anyway.

You may well be interested in our next project, which is to take a Yamaha
WR450F, and haul out the offensive single-cylinder hit-and-miss four-stroke
junk motor out and in its place put one of our TSS500 motors. We envisage
this bike as a Supermoto, indeed we believe there’s nothing whatsoever
‘Super’ about a single-cylinder four-stroke dirtbike with street rubber.
Those things are lame, lame, lame, and they only even ‘appear’ quick in the
tight single-track, or on go-kart tracks. We will call this new bike the
WR500SM, and it will be more fun than being thrown to a dozen supermodels
covered in chocolate. This will be the world’s quickest Supermoto, and with
dirt tires fitted it will clean up the field.
