You can tell it's killing the editors of the big mags... having to praise the new upstart over the big 4 quads.....Here are some interesting quotes:

"It will easily out accelerate a Honda 400ex" (can you say STOMP?)

"Steering isnt NEARLY as twitchy as before" (How about IT FLAT CARVES?)

" The Cannibal will have to ultimately prove itself where it matters most...on the race track" (That's funny, I remember them proclaiming the raptor and 400ex and DS as the BEST before they were even in the dealers)

My point is that slowly but surely they are realizing that they either fess up to the public just how good these machines are or they will begin to lose all their credibility.

Newzboy, don't forget they also said "a very long and difficult road is ahead for the other ATV manufactures in the sport/performance catagory. They had better be burning the midnight oil, with even more innovative and higher tech versions of a high performance ATV. If not, then the Cannibal is on the loose and will be having a few old friends over for dinner!" They are finally telling some truth, but I already knew the truth along time ago and I dont have to much respect for the mags. anymore. I imagine the DS 650 guys felt the same about the mags. also. I'm still suscribed because they do have alot of good pics. and race info. hee hee!
