I don't know why anyone over the I.Q. level of 60 would want to read about a test of the new Predator in that poor excuse of a magazine named Dirtwheels. Most people who have been here a while KNOW that it won't recieve a good review. Assuming that it does recieve a good review (mark the calenders if it does, it will be history) it will lose to the current big bore "Japanese favorite" in a shoot out. You see, us stupid, lazy American workers just can't produce the kind of product that the Japanese are capable of (Yeah, tell that to the people of Hiroshima and Nagasaki as the A-bomb was invented by stupid, lazy American workers too).
Undoubtably, they will fault it's handling, center of gravity, grips, handlebars, brakes, ergonomics, lack of reverse or bring up Polaris's reputation for relability. They just need ONE thing to keep it from being the best in class. It doesn't matter if it posts faster lap times on a MX track, sand drag and cross country course, they will find something to make it inferior to their favorite Japanese quad (I'd be willing to bet it's the Suzuki LTZ-400, any takers?)

Actually, the newest quad always wins the shootouts in DirtWheels. That way they sell more advertizing. They're reviews are just marketing reports anyway. Wait until ATV Sport does a test. They're the only magazine to tell it like it is. The proof is the Z-400 Dyno. 1 HP more than a 400EX...wow...massive power increase.

YFM, I just picked myself up off the floor...that's too funny!!! Supposedly, the editor of Dirt Wheels just recently relocated to Iowa to better cover the mid-section of the country. I too (along with many friends) won't be renewing my subscription....I'll just thumb through their hot air at the newstand, and leave it behind. Hey Mike, and you East coast guys/gals, please keep up the EXCELLENT job of pics.

Dirt Wheels? HHHmmmm, shouldn't it be called Honda's Dirt Wheels and the word dirt, if you look it up in the Webster's. Dirt is a excrement, filthy or soiling substance ( as mud, dust, grime or Dirt Wheels Magazine.) it also says. Something worthless, a contemptible person, scandalous or malicious gossip. Yeah it goes on but I will leave it at that and say that Dirt Wheels named their magazine well.
