Just another magazine mistake????

October ATV Action on page 23, under the Rancher 350, says: ".....and each of those in either full-time 2wd or switchable 2wd/4wd."

This is the first I had heard of the Rancher 350 having a selectable front end (the Rancher 400 AT does). The specs for the bike on the Honda web site doesn't mention it. Seems like that would be a big selling point, and they would hype it up if it were true. Is it a mistake or not?????

Yes, that is a mistake. The rancher 350 had 4 models. Rancher 2x4, Rancher 4x4, Rancher 2x4 electric shift, Rancher 4x4 electric shift. The 2/4 selectable option was only added to the rancher 400.

Well I heard that the trx 450r wasnt Honda's only surprise today. I hear they were unveiling some other project as well. Maybe its a Rancher 350 w/ 4wd/2wd, who knows?

From what I gather from Motorcycle Consumer News, at least another of Honda's unveilings will be a new liter-class supersport streetbike.
