ATV Industry Facts: Did You Know?

A brand new 2-Stroke quad? Yup!

The last production 2-stroke was the Yamaha Banshee, which ceased production in 2006. However, resourceful ATV enthusiasts still have the option to run a brand new performance tuned 2-stroke thanks to a company called Panthera Motor Sports out of Quebec.

Calling it the PM07-18, this 550cc monster puts out nearly 105hp and weighs in at 72lbs. Best of all it uses a bolt pattern that matches up with any year Honda TRX450R.

And since it uses a wiring harness that plugs into the Honda’s (and includes its own CDI box) this is as true a plug & play modification as they come.

Bonus Fact: Though physically located in Quebec Canada and offering all of their engines and parts direct order all over the world through their site, Panthera has a dedicated dealer network as well.
