Default Not having reverse SUCKS

I find it very hard to understand why there is no reverse.I never had reverse on any other ATV and no problems.This quad is nearly $7,000 and wieghs 500lbs.After yesterday,riding through the woods,I think it should have reverse.I was sooo worn out from pushing and pulling,trying to get out of the situations I kept encountering.
Are there any plans for reverse? Besides getting off and using human reverse power?

You gotta remember that the DS was never really designed to be a woods or trail machine, hence the no reverse. It seems to me that it was designed to dominate the dunes with its size and power. The same way that the Pred, C-dale, YFZ450, and TRX450R were designed for the track. Noe reverse needed there. The Kawasukicat 400's, V-Force, and Raptor are designed better for the wooded areas

the only time I really miss not having a reverse is loading/unloading. other than that I plan ahead before I stop, And I do more trail riding in the mtns than the dunes.
