Default Will there ever be another "legend"????

Since today's machines from the big manufactrers are so competitive, and they all seem to follow the same trend now a days, does anyone think that there will ever be a legend again like the 250R, Banshee, Quadzilla, etc.? Something that will be talked about 20 years from now?

I can only see a group of machines being talked about like "the 450's" instead of a specific machine. I'd say in a year or two there will be four 450's that are simular and doesn't stand out from one another. Any thoughts on this?

I dont think we will have another legend. unless they try and outlaw quads then we will be saying how cool those old 450s were.

Well, they have like a headless horseman type legend. The Tecate 4, you never hear of them much or see them, but when you do it is like a ghost.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

It'll have to be overpriced and completely impractical.
