<< Buy a PREDATOR and support your country and a company tha tgives people what they want! >>
Why not a Cannondale??
They support RACING!!!!!
Polaris doesn't and hasn't announced any plans to do so in the future.

<< I'm thinking you must have heard something else to think the mxers would be happy. Someone must have spread a rumor or something besides 2 new ranchers >>
That was the biggest hint given by the Honda Rep. this is the same guy who has SEEN both the TRX440F and the TRX650EX as prototypes. He has never been wrong before...especially when it comes to an actual announcment.
No one called me from the show to confirm yes or no to anything.
The website isn't working correctly so I can't be for certain whether or not the Rancher's are all or not. I will only go by that assumption.
Alot of members seem to blame me for their own problem. They asked questions and i told was I knew that was told by others. Seems to be a bit of the "Kill the messenger" deal. Quite frankly, i am both amused and pissed off about it. I never posted anywhere that a sport quad was a sure thing at the show....only that it is said within Honda that it would. I don't work for Honda, so I don't really see what it mattered at what i thought anyway.
After reading everything tonight, I am debating on whether or not I will making MY announcment.
Later,
Patrick

KNOWSALOT-Polaris supports racing-a rider in my home state has alot to do with that! You know who I am talking about, so call him and tell him they're not supporting him and his team. As for your post in the Kawasaki forum... I can not wait until Monday when Kawasaki releases a Bayou 300 with GPS and a driver's side airbag. smartypants. From what I can see a Predator can be raced with far less added on and for less $$$ than a Cannondale.

<< Oh...That's right.
Polaris supports NASCAR!?!?!
WTF? Talk about getting your priorities backwards!!! >>
KNOWSALOT, Don't you know there is a HUGE advertising market to the yo-hos that munch popcorn and beer all Sunday afternoon and then go play Dale Jr. on their Sportsman 500's on the way to the fishin' hole. There are 1000 of those guys for every one racer. You KNOW that KNOWSALOT! Alot more people watch the Daytona 500 than the six people lining the fence at the AMA district races. Sad but true-I wish it were not...Factories like HONDA (and the rest of them) make it this way due to a total lack of support for racing!

<< OMG, its a DAMN 2004 Rancher. What a CROCK !!!!!
Introducing the 2004 FourTrax Rancher AT. Hondamatic transmission. TraxLok 2WD/4WD. And the FourTrax Rancher AT GPScape model is the world's first ATV to offer a built-in Global Positioning System. >>
Where does it say that? The site looks the same as it did yesterday.

wizeguy,
<< From what I can see a Predator can be raced with far less added on and for less $$$ than a Cannondale. >>
May be true and maybe not. None of us know. We will find out in time.
The NASCAR remark I made wasn't to be taken serious. Maybe you just aren't familiar with me yet. I keep the smileys out of posts sometimes just to make guys wonder a bit. You wondered to hard. My bad.
I'm not sure if I understand your comment on the Kawasaki. Ask your dealer for the Marketing bulletin from Sept. 6......every dealer got one.
And for the Rath sponsorship. I was unaware of that. My appologys for "non supporting polaris" bit.
