Default 4-STROKE HIGH PERF. 250 SPORT QUADS?

What would you guys think of a high tech 250 dirtbike engine in a lightweight chassis. I think it would be great if Honda dropped the 300ex(great bike, just old) and put some typr of 250R fourstroke out with reverse I might add.

400ex needs and update to!

That would be awesome, but I garauntee you Honda doesn't take the first step. They've supposedly got two other projects they're working on right now.

That's exactly one of the things they're doing. They're supposedly borrowing the motor setup out of their XR650 trailbike. Do you think they'll call it the 650R or 650EX?

-650R OR 650 EX
-high performance 250 4stroke
-updated 400ex(reverse, liquid cooling, etc.)
-and maybe some tweeking on the 450r

If they would just do this nothing would compare to Honda, sales would be unbeleivable! But I doubt it will never happen, I at least want the 650 though.

Doesnt the EX mean something about electric start, so im guessing if its going to be e-start it will be an EX.

e for electric, x for four stroke, and i think R is for racing. I figure that because 250r and 450r are both racing bikes. I know the e and x because the 250x was 4 stroke and not electric and all the new four strokes, besides the 450r, are ex instead of just x.
