Anyone notice that the Yamaha forum has more posts than the Polaris forum, since last week or so? Also, that we are fast approaching Honda! Wow!

That isnt saying alot though. Most of the post in these forums are problem related. So it isnt real good to have alot more post when they are all problems.

but look at it this way, your posts are all problem related. Our posts are all how to get a 400 EX to smoke a Raptor. lol

Don't forget the squeeky suspension and all of the worthless, pointless posts KKKiller250x has made to reach "Pro Rider" status.(I remeber some guy getting critisized for wanted a rebel flag seat cover, and this guy has KKK in his name, and no-one says a thing. Man, this board has changed)

With worthless posts like this, you will soon RULE the message boards. Congratulations! Kinda reminds me of the appliance comercial(Maybe Maytag) where the repair man never has any work because his products never break. Maybe some forums don't need as much help figuring out quad related problems. "Open mouth.....insert foot"

Wake up, all forums have problem posts, do I have to give examples? Face it, Yamaha is the most progressive manufaturer with some nice quads and thats why they are taking over the board.

I agree, and disagree with you JHAM. Yes, every forum has problems.. But.. about the most progressive manufacturer? IN MY OPINION, that title would have to go to C-Dale. They have done what racers, and sport riders have ALWAYS wanted. 1st, they come out with a totally wild concept bike.. with EFI, and cassette type transmission.. Now, they might not be proven, but hey, at least they have the ***** to do it! Yamaha has had some great introductions.. after all, they killed everything with the Raptor.. But, I don't know about the Grizzly.. It seems to me that they are just trying to win the Displacement War.. But hey, i'm just a lil racer guy!

I'm not much in to sport quads so you may be right about C-dale in that regard. But the griz has more than just cc's though. They are the first to combine;IRS, true 4x4, engine braking on ALL 4 wheels combined with a 660 motor and not overly huge, high or heavy. I do think they have some minor bugs to work out on the griz and raptor though.

yeah, I totally agree with you.. My recommendation to all these guys.. hold back and wait for the 2003 Grizz.. They WILL have bugs.. but yes, the IRS, demand drive.. it's going to be nice
