What could this mean or bring for us? This is the headline on Hondas Website for this month! There are pictures of water(the new watercraft) picture of highway (they probably made a few updates to the crotch rockets) and.... picture of dirt! What does this have to do with us? Well.. Honda has already released all of their new Dirt Bikes. So.. will this be the introduction of our new sport quad? Maybe. Will it be a new CRF250 to compete with the YZ250F? Maybe. All we can do is hope and wait. By the way, if you want to get an early look at the new models (3 hours before Honda actually puts them on their website) at about 9 o'clock Central Standard Time, go to Honda Model Preview and type in 2002 for the password.
