I guess I'm more of an idealist.

KMS, TVI, HP Research, Pami, Ron Wood, etc.

NONE should have to pay for an honest article reporting what is out there for the ATV rider.

ESPECIALLY NOT $10,000! I sure don't have an extra $10k sitting around and I wouldn't think an start-up would have $10k they could allocate to advertising instead of tooling or shop space expansion.

Either write a letter to the editor or cancel your subscription. Their featured articles read more like a product brochure.

When was the last time you read an article on one of the little guys? After I heard that I looked through one of my magazines and its all about the big guy. Made me look at magazines s in a whole new light. I learn more from forums than I do the Magazines. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

ATV Sport is the closeest to a "real" mag.

I always love how Dirtwheels complains that a big bore ute doesn't junp well! I see that all the time with farmers jumping!

Autoweek never complains that a Hummer doesn't corner like a Vette.

Ya know what is funny about this $10,000 figure that the ATV magazines wanted to do an article on the Turbo for the DS650 or Raptor - a couple of years ago they did an article for FREE on the DS760 from Knutz, we all know for a fact he didn't pay anything. Although their 'test riders' were so incompetent that they crashed his 760 (Not badly, but they did crash...)

UPDATE: There have been some talks between dirt wheels , MSD and TVI after the picture that was in the MSD add had a different looking exhaust system( ie. turbo drag pipe) and mega paddles where spotted by the highly competent staffers of the magazine. They are interested in doing a spread of the Turbo system and will break the news to the rest of the ATV world in one of their up coming issues. I might actually have to buy a copy of that article!
