Default possible 450 update

Hey guys I just came back from a dealership and they gave me some good updates on the 450. According to them they can not even order a 2005 DS650. He said it wasn't even on his order form. But he was told that a 450 was being tested. He didn't have any info on it but it seems kind of strange that he can not order 2005 650. Maybe we will see somthing soon.

Although the ds650 is a fantastic bike (I had an '01), I suspect it is a money loser for BRP. I just don't see that many around as compared to Raptors, YFZ's and such. I wonder if they are cancelling production of it (no new orders)? Maybe focusing production facilities on the new 450???
