Hopefully that is true. HA they came to the plate with reverse, EFI, electric start, and still managed to come in at 5 lbs less than the YFZ. Very impressive.

It will be interesting to see what Honda and Yamaha throw at the 450s for 2008 which will be the 5th model year of the YFZ and 450R. I think that big things will be coming, at least from Yamaha anyway.

 

Wow, that is a nice looking quad. I love the fact it comes with reverse gear! I might be in the market for a new quad now.

 

I will be gettin one of those as soon as they come out.

I wonder why they didn't carry one the Tecate name? I think it would be cool... Tecate 450R. I like the A-arm mounts. Some snowmachines come like that with the idea being the mounts break away during an impact thus saving your frame. I can't honestly see anything I don't like about that quad. It had a kick starter and I thought I read it has e-start, plus reverse gear, easy chain adjustment system, reservior shocks, and it looks nice. I've been toying with the idea of a new Quadracer 450R but the lack of reverse kept me from seriously considering it. This new KFX looks to do it all!

I've had Kawasaki street & dirt bikes plus my Mojave and I don't have a problem with them. I just wish I had better dealers.

 

if it comes with a kick start backup stock that would be awsome. I am diggin the A-Arm system. I will be riding one of these next spring for sure!

 

Sick!
