they already have it. you stop the quad and keep the clutch engaged or put the quad in neutral. you then put your foot on this thing called the ground and using calibrated pressue on the ground, you use these things in your legs called muscles in a rearward thrusting motion thus moving the quad backwards.

No, they probably will not. Why do you need a reverse mechanism on a race-ready machine that only weighs 350 lbs. dry? If you are too lazy to get off your **** to turn it around or use the grab bar, you probably will not have the energy needed to ride such a quick machine.

Actually, its a good idea. They would bring a lot of yfz owners or potential buyers into the honda showroom. If you had electric start and reverse, you would really make a big dent in the yfz sales numbers.
Face it, most people who buy these quads are racing with them, and if they do, they are just running local harescrambles. Only a very small percentage are actually taking these things on an mx track. It would make a lot more business sense to add these features to the machine.
If it was a pure race machine btw, you could remove that big ugly headlight without leaving a huge gap in the front end.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
