Raptor 700 EFI, Why Not Grizzly?
I am absolutely not meaning to bash on Yamahammer, but I'm really questioning why the heck they didn't adopt the new 700 EFI from the Raptor straight over to the Grizz? I can't believe they left their big-bore 4x4 alone!

the Rincon is a 650, right? Grizz is a 660
that's only 10cc diff [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
the big, big bore (don't know if you noticed that part [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]) is 700/750/800 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
Yamaha needs to take it to that level. Even if it was just the 700EFI engine from the new Rappy. Why not go that route Yamaha?

Even though it's probably not realistic at all, I have a dream that all of a sudden, Honda will release new or drastically update it's models all at once and basically regain the #1 spot overnight. No more boring, but reliable engines. And then maybe continue to innovate and come out with some totally new ideas. Just dreaming though..............

Have you noticed that Honda has not listed the 2006 Rincon? Obviously, the Rincon will be getting some updates, but what will they be?
I agree with the previous poster, a 650 cannot be considered a big bore any longer...
