On the sales deal--did you get a source of the sales information? Or was it just this individual saying so? Source is very important to establish a fact.
On the Japanese deal--you realize that Polaris engines are of Japanese origin? Fuji Heavy Metal Industustries. Honda manufactures (all milling and assembly of engines), welds, paints and assembles it quads under one roof--in South Carolina. I will find the post about Honda expanding it manufacturing and bring it up to the top for you Joe. Not many had an interest back at the time of the 1st posting. Maybe now?
All that said. Does all this matter? How many times does the referee change his call when told he he is wrong?

 

I Know what you mean my bike seem to act the same even with a passenger on the back.There is a point where a 600lb bike is a pig and being 100lbs more makes no differance because you can not throw 600lb or 700lb quad around anways.The new Rubicon may be 100lbs less but the new H.O SP500 will dust it easly.
