Rumor has it that this may be the case...in order for Honda to be able to keep up with the Suzuki Z400 threat. Has anyone heard anything concrete about this? What is the future of the 400EX? Would like to know, as I plan on getting a 400EX. (the pricing on them is really great right now!)

I doubt it. As long as the 400 EX still sells Honda won't be in a hurry to put another quad on the market. When the sales go down, they will realize that they need to put a new quad on the market. Here's an idea. BOYCOTT THE 400 EX!!

Honda has big plans for the dealer show in September.

Honda had spent many dollars [and man power] on the VTX18 and GL18 that have been released over the past two years.

Our Rep says that the focus this year will be back to the offroad motorcycle and ATV line.

There will be a couple new ATVs..one of which will be their new flagship sportquad.

There will also be a CRF250R fourstroker

And a Honda FIRST.....Snowmobile

Knowsalot,
Do you think the new Honda sport quad will be a 650 or 450? Or even something else? Have any inside info? I promise I won't tell. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
