I think the only hi-performance market they are seriously after is the 4-stroke dirtbikes. A lot of people don't understand that the average rider isn't looking for a behemoth of a quad.

I have a $20K truck, no 5th wheel and a $4k quad. Yep, that's what I'm saying.

Toys are just toys. Not going to spend an arm and a leg on just one machine.

Thats why I buy used and do all my own work. Very few of my toys are "cherry" but all of them are big fun.
Its taken me 20 years to collect what Ive got right now. Im still bummed about selling the '74 QA 50.
