Nowadays only the ones which have at least front disc brakes are flexfuel, but usually only motorcycles up to 300cc are available as flexfuel.

Gotta have to agree with that. However, since in Brazil ethanol is effectively widespread as a motor fuel, it won't become a trend elsewhere so soon. Not even in Paraguay where flexfuel cars have been more common as they can be sourced from Brazil or following Brazilian specifications (at least Kia is now selling Korean-made flexfuel cars there), since most motorcycles sold there are Chinese and often carburettor-fed.
