Default 2004 V-TWIN 500cc BANSHEE

A COUPL MONTHS AGO I READ A ARTICL IN ATV MAGAZINE, they said yamaha was building a y-twin 500cc banshee for 2004. they said it put out 90 hp stock and yamaha had accerories to make 140 hp. they said it had some kind of valve set up, a switch on handle bars for 3 different power deleverie. they also sais that it was the highest 2 stroke technology out there and it would start the 2stroke competetion all over again like honda did when thry came out with the 400ex then raptor,preadtor,z400,kfx400,kfx700,ds650,yfz450. they even had a picture of the v twin banshee. it did not look computerized either? that p***ed me off when they came out with the 450 in stead.
