New TM R3 - when?

How often do TM release new kz engines?

Are we due a new model in the coming year?

Every 3 years roughly

I was thinking that myself. Are they hard got when there newly released?

It’s down to the length of the homologation period.
@Simone_Perego can you confirm what the current period is for KZ engines?

Hey guys, end of homologation for current breed of engines is the end of 2025.

A lot of manufacturers extend their homologations for at least 1-2 years (yearly renewal) as a transition period for their customers, so expect the R2s and R1s to also get extended into 2026.
