Anyone know if we can expect a mid-year release for a new Foreman Design?

Do not expect a redesign of anything, given the current market. The 450R is well overdue to get fuel injection and a complete overhaul, and they even passed it up this year....

I have been saying this for years! It would need to be ultralight and medium size....not just the 250 motor thrown into a 450R frame. But, they missed the boat! In this market, it couldn't compete with the dirt cheap Raptor 250.

It is a little heavy for my taste, but will most likely be my next atv purchase....

While IRS is a nice option if one constantly rides in very rocky terrain, but it's certainly not a necessity. I go everywhere in my SRA Rancher, that my buddies do on their $10,000 top of the line IRS big bores, including yard deep snow!

Not only have I checked out the Rancher AT, Im prolly buying one tonight! I was sold on the Grizzly 450 but the carburetor turned me off. The 450 KQ Zookie just doesnt do it for me. The Rancher AT has everything I want and has NO belt to dick around with. So... Im going to be a Rancher AT owner by this weekend.
