I read a rumor...
Q67, For your first post, that was the best first post I have ever seen. You Aussie's ROCK!!!!
Mud,
I bet that it will be another quad to compete with the YFZ and 450R on the MX track. You can bet it will be near 50" because like the DS, they wanted the dimensions as close as possible to a race ready quad. The DS's footprint is just that. Too bad they forgot everything else as it went from the ground up LOL. Oh well, we wouldnt have the "couch" if they just mad a copy of a 250r now would we? I saw that little hint as well in Dirtwheels and set the magazine down, looked up to the quadgod and gave him a big THUMBS UP!!

I've been hearing a lot of rumors that it will be something unlike the other 450's. I bet it is still a 450 4-stroke tho.
There should be plenty 450's to chose from next year, we already have 3, and then throw in Bomb and Kawi!

Speaking of rumors.....I went to my local bomb dealer this weekend. I was told that they(the bomb r&d) have an 800cc, alum frame, efi ds that was created. The dealer said that their rep was telling them about it. I know we have heard this for the better part of two years. I only wish brp new how successful that bike would be. He was also told by the rep that brp did have full plans for a 450 but they couldn't build one that would be affordable against the big 3. I only wish one of our Canadien brothers could somehow let a pic or two of this bike leak out.....Oh well, wishful thinking!!!!!CP
