Default Improvements for ds650

If it doesnt get discontinued, what would you like to see changed on the ds650? make a list

1.) EFI (might push the price up)
2.) Reverse
3.) lower seat height by one inch
4.) lower overall height by two inches
5.) lose 70lbs to make it the same weight as the polaris outlaw 500 (425lbs i think)
6.) dual exhaust? (might be a bit expensive)

Onlything i would change is put efi on it and bore it up to a 720. Its heavy for a reason.... that frame has got to be the thickest frame ive seen and if they lightened it.... she would also be smaller which would suck for big guys. No dual exhaust it just adds weight and is pretty pointless on a single.

The ds is gone....they havent even botherd to change the color in 2 years and there are no models left. Maybe they will keep the one model... it is pretty much the only quad that ever finnishes the dakar race and if bombardier put money into the ds like they did for the outlander for the baja races....the ds would of swept the baja. Who knows..... bombardier is leaning towards the high output 4by4 market and that seems like where they plan on staying.

how thick IS the frame, 1.5"? It wouldnt suck for bigger ppl if they made it a bit lower, it would be even easier to throw around then

WHY DONT YOU WANT REVERSE? im confused, i thought that was the only thing the was missing, efi is not a MUST .......yet

dual exhaust isnt really necessary on a single cylinder engine, but it would make it different and attract more people, they want to make this quad sell

I'd like to see them add bore and stroke make it 750 plus with EFI. Would hope to be high 60 in hp and mid to high 50's in torque. Some new colors would be nice as well.
