Fernwood is in MS. Take the Fernwood exit off of I-55. If coming form LA take a right off the exit then take your first right. Go about one mile or so and its on the right. The sign will say Rolling Thunder. They practice on Wednesday 5-11, Friday 5-11, Saturday dawn-dusk, and they race on Sundays. The only phone number I have for them is 601-249-6328 and someone usually always answers the phone.

Just some info, don't mean to sound like Cliff Clavin know it all.

CannondaleMOTO440, the price is $12,450.00 for the 2002 MOTO. The Blaze is $10,450.00. If you want to spend around $7,000, then you shoud buy the Speed instead of the Suzuki, at least ride them both first. Of course, no dealer will lwt you ride one first. Cannondale dealers should have a Cannibal for you to ride, they know the ride will sell it. Nothing against Suzukis new quad, but it should be half the price of the MOTO, we're not talking about the same products. $12k is a huge amount of money for a quad, but it is not for what it is and what the alternative cost.

AlaskaYFM, those front shocks are not definite to be the ones on the production MOTO.

Chawness, It does set very tall in the new pictures, it will not be this tall when shipped, that MOTO does not have the production a arms and shock mounting locations that will help lower the quad. I'm glad to see your impressed with Cannondale and their product that has been actually brought from paper to production quick.

mtecate4g, The MOTO is to be able to compete with pro level LSR, Roll, and Leagers 250 R racers, those quads are not built for around $10,000 and the MOTO is not going to be that cheap. But the quality and performance will match the price, it is not fluffed up $2,000 on the retail price because you come up with $10,000. Please, I don't mean for that to sound bad, I understand your point and many people will think the same thing. But there are thousands of people with $12K to $18K in a R and they will understand what it takes to build a competition machine. This is the customer for the MOTO. Customers are not going to shop between a 400EX, Raptor, or MOTO. The customer will be debating on building high dollar R s or a MOTO, that's all.
Your right, if you don't need this type of quad, you'll be very happy with you on a Speed for $7,950 and her a Cannibal for $6,995.
The rev limiter can't actually be upgraded, it must be done with the Optimum GP Control software, it actually wont be a hardware item.

Cannondale's motorsport factory is in Bedford, PA and the corporate office are in Bethel, CT

Dirtdiggler, the MOTO will have aluminum beadlocks on the rear and rolled lip on the front, the carbon fibre are going to be on yet, I hope in the future. The 50 horse quoted for built R motors is usually at the crank, Cannondale is around 39 on our dyno at the rear wheel, and 50 at the crank. The new X440 bike is coming with a new valvetrain and should be comparable with the new CRF450 horse.
