For god sake let us know something, anything!! I noticed on the Kawasaki page that they have lowered the msrp of the Lakota and raised the msrp of the Mojave to the same price! I don't like the color of the new Lakota plastic. Kawasaki had better get some good news out here for those of us that are spending our hard earned money, because I for one won't be waiting much longer to hand the Mojave over to my wife and get myself a beast! Yamaha has the Banshee and new Raptor, Honda has the 400ex sportrax so Kawasaki you better come correct and damn quick!

 

Kawasaki is of course well aware of the fact that people are rushing to plunk their hard earned money on Raptors. I would expect them to release or "leak" information long before a Raptor or Cannondale ever ships and I would imagine we'll probably see it in the magazines next month.

 

All of those people who put their money down on a raptor will be dispointed when Kawasaki releases thier kxf-250, and it will blow away everything So they better make it.

 

My local dealer told me the only new bikes from Kawi are a Lakota Sport and a big bore Prarie possibly a 500. He says it would cost too much to build the KXF250 and if built would be nearly 7K.

 

I got news for you. Most of the new sport ATV's cost nearly seven grand. Kawasaki rep. already said there will be a new sport quad for 2001 and we will not be dissappointed. With Team green running in the GNCC and Doug Roll on the payroll, I am keeping my fingers crossed and money in my bank until Kawasaki shows their hand.

 

Moto4, you might want to find a dealer that's paying a little more attention. Just shy of $7000 is the going rate for today's sport ATV market and Kawasaki absolutely is releasing a high-performance bike for 2001-

 

I'm wearing a hole in my carpet pacing back and forth waiting for Kawasaki to let some news out. I think its pretty amazing they have kept as tight a lid on things as they have.

 

You and me both!

 

Come on Kawasaki, cut the B.S. I ordered a Raptor just in case the Team Green don't come through. If they do come out with one it better be state of the art machine capable of crushing the raptor. They need a KXF250 and KXF500 or at least a Mojave 650 (KLR motor). Hurry up and quit screwing around.
