Yes, MotoGP which moved from two stroke 500cc engines to four stroke 990cc engines in 2002 and then again from 990cc engines to 800cc engines in 2007 is all set to change in future.
MotoGP will again go back to 1000cc four stroke engines with a maximum cylinder count of four. The board has decided to go in for this change stating that these changes in the sport with 1000cc four stroke four cylinder engines all the manufacturers will have equal opportunity to work on their machines from now on.
