Does anybody think that Honda will ever bring out a new sport quad like a 500ex or something to match up to or out do a Yamaha Raptor?

if they do the only logical thing to do would be to use the xr650r dirt bike engine. liquid cooled, dual radiators, only 88lbs, more power than the 660r... this concept will most likely stay in the heads of us faithful fourm readers just like the trx 500r back in the late 80's. we can dream!

Yes,

they're coming out with a 600 ex. go to the website below.

www.atvtires.com

then click the globe, and then it will take you to all terrain charleys page. in the left frame go to Atv Spy Page, scroll about 3/4 down and there it is.

I'm skeptical. Seems to me they're just pullin' our legs. Look at the 600EX and 250R - it's the same body!

P.S.: Every one celebrate! This is my 50th post!

I really hope they do but I dont think they will.Honda seems to be leaning more torwards family values and enviromentaly safe vehicles.Like their 4 stroke waverunner.I wish honda would wake up and compete with Yamaha.Yamaha is kicking *** in the performance area of the market.They no exactly what most of us want.Ill tell you what,if honda does come out with a new performace machine it will be bad azz.

as i've already seen those spy photos let me be the first to tell you they are fakes... if u look close enough you can see the 250r's muffler is pasted over the 4-stroke of the 400EX, and where is the 650EX's radiator at??? liquad cooled, no radiator doesnt make much sense? and shouldn't they have SporTrax like the 400 and 300EX's do now? just look at them and you can see where they have cut and pasted. but pretty good for fakes

thats all fake don't believe a word of that. its obviose some1 took a pic of the 400EX and wrote 650EX on one and 250r in the other. if honda was gonna release those quads then they would most likey have different body styles than the 400. and the TRAX thing it says they were driving up a wall...doubt it! the lt1000 thing definatley fake they just cloned the back end of the thing untl it was really long. i think if they were gonna make a quad that long it wouldn't just have a big long rack it would have one of those truck bed thingson it like the traxterXT or whatever. and the volvo one...i don't even have to explain why that one is fake!

At first, I was slightly upset over those pictures. But I quickly figured out that I should just laugh. They are pretty good. Funny thing though, the 2001 TRX 250R... the motor that they are using is a Kawasaki KX 250, not even a Honda. I reconize the clutch cover, water pump, exhaust, kick lever & rear brake lever as a KX. But anyways...
