However, seems like companies are not ready to bear the investment needed for equipment, R&D and assembly training. Let us hope they do that in the near future. Which is why I feel it will take time. Let us suffice with a 250 (if it gets launched this year) for the time being!
that is sad....would love to see the new monster 696, its just too good to resist...anyways as you said seems like we'll have to suffice with a 250cc
