Kawasaki has a strong tradition in atv's.
I think they pretty much invented the concept in fact.
I just don't get it.
Why don't they have a strong 450 "race-like" quad?
The sport quads have the biggest or one of the biggest shares of the market.
They can't afford to ignore it.
Too much $$$ to make from it.
Even Polaris didn't ignore it...

(i had a 1980 or 81 atc110) the other manufacturers, including kawasaki, soon followed with an array of 3wheelers, but suzuki was the first with a quad and then the first to introduce a high performance quad back in 1985, the 2stroke LT250r.

I wouldn't doubt it if it becomes the benchmark 450 quad. I'd also say it will have a aluminum frame and EFI.
This is just what I have put together with what I have accumulated in the last year. Im not positive about the features, but I would expect it here sometime next summer.

Even tho there is a rumor of it being a 500cc, it really doesn't make since. They will make it a 450 even if it is geared more towards XC, just so they can compete in MX as well.
Im also predicting it will be available in green. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Just wanted to point out for those of you that have forgot that Blackbird is wrong on this just like he was on the lt450r, he told us it was a fact that it would be kickstart and told us over and over again he was smarterr than us. Now just like before he is wrong because we all now know it is a 450. Thanks for playing blackbird.
