Hey, Cannondale is doing it with their engine, why not Big Red? Honda IS concerned about Cannondale's progress in the off-road world. Honda offered an NSX [$85,000+] and cash to a PA dealer for the first Cannondale MXer. They obviously wanted to do some testing before the release of their big new 4 stroke . I only hope they are as concerned about the quad market.

Exotic1,
I am talking about the new 4 stroke motocross bike that Honda is supposed to release on Thursday the 14th. I was just saying that Cannondale plans on using the same engine [maybe some minor changes but basically the same] in both their quad and MX bike and would'nt it be nice if Honda did the same. My guess is we'll get the 650ex if anything at all. Even if they don't announce the 650 now, it will be here next year sometime as a 2002.
