Since there's there not much to do these days I figured I would start a thread about changing the bike in moto3. It's pointless and probably not relevant but who cares:laughing. I thought about this for a little while and I think it would be a good thing. Every since moto2 changed to 4 stroke I didn't like how moto3 bikes were so much much smaller in physical size and weight compared to the 600cc moto 2. Now moto2 switched to the 765 triple which makes the bike a little smaller but with more power (and motoGP electronics) to help adapt riders to motogp but widens the gap further from moto3 IMO.
My idea was they need to completely ditch the small current bikes and build a bigger chassis (similar size to the 2 stroke 250cc gp bikes) with a 450cc single production dirt bike motor (allow mods) with spec ecu. I think there would be more manufacture involvement if they could use a production based motor to help save costs. It would be nice to have more diversity in the lower class then just honda and ktm. The bigger chassis with a little more weight and a little more power might help adaptation to moto2 while still learning corner speed. There's a company in Spain called BeOn that has built one already. Here's a link http://beonautomotive.es/en/productos/catalogo/450gp/450gp/
What are your thoughts on this ?
