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!

Who's DS is that in the MSD ad, it is killer!

I don't know who actually owns the bike, all I know is that it follows Gary around and he lets everyone ride it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] for more detail on the bike and drag videos go to TVI's web site.

when you read hot rod magazine or car craft there arn't alot of articles about the new production mustang or the corvette. there is usually a guy who spent a year or two building up a 69 camaro or a full blown pro-streeter that went to an event and was asked to do a full page spread. don't you think the atv magazines would learn from there experience and hold an event where the average guy/gal brings out there machines and get chosen to do a story about it? seems that would be more interesting than hearing about how the rapptor and 450 do in a drag race for the tenth time.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

Next time you talk to them (KMS) ask if they were approached by a reporter or sales person.
When I owned a business I would get calls all the time from newspapers trying to sell ads that look like stories.

Not that I am sticking up for ATV mags, having been a DS owner, everybody here knows the the DS is the best duner, but never rates in the mags that way

The one on the TVI site is clowning those guys, would those bikes beat a 690 or 727 raptor or a built DS is the question.. you can make anything look fast if it's racing a stock bike, they dident look stock but you never know...
