True. And it should be the same for all of us, for the betterment of this thread. This thread has become more like 'There aren't many bikes launched nowadays, so let's kill time here' thread.

Interesting because that would mean the 99.xx percentage of bikes running in carbs would be affected by the law. But the implementation of the law, or upholding of the law, rather, which is in question.

True, which is why I feel it is truly a myth, unless is planning to launch two versions of the 220 as speculated by some people here.

There was an article regarding the conceptualization of modern two-strokes. It stated that this engine was capable of meeting the future standards of emission with typical 2 stroke power retained. I will have to dig the net for that, but I am certain I read it somewhere.

ZMA-Fi has always been on the cards since waaaay back, but I guess HH went into coloring/stickering mode or something.

Even I do not know what those guys are upto!

Coming back to your question of FI and carbs there are still a lot of bikes with carbs and there will remain a lot of bikes with carbs conforming to Euro IV norms.

I read somewhere, they'll need to add a second catalytic converter to make the existing carb'd bikes to conform with the new emissions !!
So I'd guess economiser bikes are still safe, that way.

But wudn't that add dead weight to the "performance" bikes !!

Regarding ZMA Fi, I rate Topgear pretty highly, so I'd assume they are not spreading heresay a la other mags !!
But there were no other details with it, so I'm afraid everything might still be up in ether !!

@pranay : The bikes already produced will not be affected (don't we ride RX/RD/Samurai etc etc even today with a PUC ?) , they will just ban production of BSIV non complaint bikes. Companies will not make radically different bikes starting April2010, but they will modify cat-con etc etc to bring down effluent levels to meet BSIV norms.
