what the hell is the deal with this??? why must all sponsorship money go to the two-wheeled rockets and not any quads??? i could've sworn there are alot more quads then dirt bikes screamin' around town, and with factory sponsorship it would explode even more in popularity. just my idea i guess, definitely not original, but it seems like nobody cares.

Some of it probably has to do with all of the legal stuff and the CPSC bullsh*$ from the late '80S and early '90s. But it has been 10 years, so what's the deal? Kawasaki has put a little $ into GNCC, but that's about it. Rumor has it that Suzuki is looking to get back in now that the LT-Z400 is out.

Cannondale is the only company with any balls.

I think some of it has to do with the aftermarket companies still ruling the sport of ATV racing. I'm happy that Suzuki and Kawasaki stepped up, but the Z-400 machines still need to be heavily modified for racing, and to do that requires aftermarket parts. Cannondale is doing factory support because they are manufacturing race-ready quads.
