2 stroke is STILL unlikely, but I will ask!

So we see lots of new stuff on the Chinese bike market, but the 2 stroke bikes still seem totally limited to a few small dirt bikes, scooters.

The entry level for a dirt bike seems to be the GPX which lists over $5000 and the next level jumps to $7k, and then $10k!!! Sure, the GPX makes about 40hp (that's nice

) but I wonder why we just don't see a 150cc or 200cc budget model??? The Zuumav 4 stroke bikes are a bargain for streetable dual sport oriented towards off-road, but a 2-stroke alternative could easily add another 10hp without costing anymore for the manufacturer's processes.

I wonder if we will ever see this? I just don't have $5000 spare change to buy the GPX
