The way I see it, Yamaha has been leading in MX since the late 90's and now in Quads. Now that the 450R was intro'd it isn't as impressive as I thought it would have been. To me, Honda is slipping and it would be natural for Yamaha to kill them on 400EX sales with an updated Warrior. All they need to do is go 400-450cc, liquid cooled, reverse, e-start and use a frame based on the YFZ and then they would have an awesome trail quad. The Warrior has been basically unchanged since 1989 and the '87 model wasn't much different. It is long overdo for a makeover. Plus, the Z-400 is the best all around quad out right now so that would be their benchmark. What do you guys think?

 

haha that would be a smart move for the blue team
