I wait all this time to see the new 04' models, and what happens? the server is down or crashed or something. What kinda BS is that? O well.. I am guessing its a 650ex with independant rear suspension. I saw a convincing pic of that over at mudsand.com.. or was it sandmud.com? I dont know. But it looked real, very real. O well.. Any other last minute perdictions? I am also thinking a refined 250r type quad. But who knows?

It has already been confirmed that is 2 Rancher auto's one has a GPS.

 

I don't think there will be any sport quads come out...

 

The site now says an error has occured and Honda is currently working to correct this problem.

 

So damn funny. Kiss Honda goodbye in the sport quad arena!! Oh well, they tried......yah right!!!


A utility quad! Hey I mounted my GPS on my Z, its the first sport GPS quad ever!!! I'm going to sell my idea to Suzuki.

 

I REALLY hope that is what Honda calls its new "radical" 04 models. Gps? who gives a crap. Maybe some one in the middle of the Sahara. Oh well.. I have faith in Honda still. They have to come out with a new sport quad.. dont they?

 

give them a couple of years then they'll come out with some thing bigger a better. thats the way honda works. as long as people are still buying400ex's like they are. its all profit. look how long it took they to put a water cooled motor in the xr 650! that bike was in development for years but honda didnt want to release it cuz they where making money off the 600 still.
from what i have been witnessing in the industry latly, a lot of people are buying the former farm implaments that are now called sport utilitys. also known as a personal jeep in some circles.
