Need a New Bike for the 2008 season?
        All New Honda machines are now SOLD OUT

We are waiting to hear if there will be any changes in the next production run of RS and TZ 125s and 250s. We have been told, probably not. Prices will be confirmed when manufactures accept our orders. As I had said were told told that there should be no changes from last seasons price but we have seen parts prices creeping up over the last year so we do need to confirm.We now have indications from Honda that the prices in YEN have gone up a little in the RS125 and a bit more for the RS250. That and the fact that the YEN is stronger against the dollar we are looking at the prices for the RS125 $11,250 and the RS250 $20,250. We have no information on Yamaha yet.
see more information here http://www.rscycles.com/motor.htm

We have been told that our order must be placed by the end of September cut off date.
We are now accepting deposits for new RS125s, RS250s, TZ125s and TZ250s.These machines will be built in January of 2008 and we hope to receive them in the US by the end of February via ocean freight depending on the delivery date in Japan. These machines can also be air freighted. Due to the fact that we will not know how many will be allocated to us for a few months our plan is to accept a 25% deposit which will be refundable up until we have been told of our allocation. Those who supply a deposit will be given a number. Depending on availability, bikes will be supplied in number order. If we are not able to fill all orders then your deposit will be returned. For all those who are lucky enough to purchase a bike we will need an additional 25% to confirm your order. The balance will be due when your machine is ready to be shipped to you either by truck within the US or by direct airfreight from Japan. CLICK HERE to  email us for details on placing your deposit.

Historically Yamaha has produced very few machines per year for their worldwide sales
. In 2005 only 3 TZ125s and 10 TZ250s (RSC got 5 TZ250s), in 2006 only 7 TZ125s and 23 TZ250s (RSC got 1 of each), in 2007 only 3 TZ125s and 22 TZ250s (RSC got 2 of each). (There were 33 orders for the TZ250 in 2007, 11 racers did not get one) In 2008 only 3 TZ125s and 18 TZ250s, RSC got 2 TZ125s and 4 TZ250s.
We have no leads on good used motorcycles at this time but check back to our site for updates.
Honda usually produces to their orders and keeps some stock in Japan but we were limited in 2007 and no extras where made for stock in Japan. We have been told that RS125s should be no problem this year but only 10 RS250s are planned for assembly.

We have no leads on good used motorcycles at this time but check back to our site for updates.

Honda will make RS bikes again next year, but 2008 (the bikes we will receive at the beginning of 2009) will be the last production run. Honda has announced that 2009 is the last year they will compete with a 2 stroke in 125 and 250 GP class. Rumor has it that development has started on a 250 4 stroke replacement for the RS125 possible for 2010.

At this time we are SOLD OUT RS250s (Honda will only make 10 RS250s for the world and we are told that we will have only 2 of them), Honda RS125s are now also SOLD OUT.
We believe that we are Sold Out of TZ125s and 250s but are waiting to hear from Yamaha for confirmation.

The FIM has backed the date from 2012 to 2009 for the 2 stroke 250 in world racing so the light at the end of the tunnel is fading. http://www.speedtv.com/articles/moto/motogp/9921/
