Look at the dirt bike engine. It isn't just a bored-out 400! Suzuki can't just bring out a bored-out 450 in the same old 400 frame, it couldn't compete with Honda and Yamaha's 450 handling.

Fromwhat I've heard Suzuli is redesigning the Z400 to make it a 450. They have to if the factories what to compete the 450R and YFZ450 on the racing circuit.

i think they should keep the 400's and make 450's as well cuz if they make them all 450's they will more than likely up the price then i doubt i will be able to afford it >_<

I'm figuring they will keep the Z400 and it's clones, and release a all new 450 quad. With all this extra time, and the claim that it is the quad we have all been waiting for, I look forward to Zuki not releasing a turd. Maybe the YFZ will have some competition, or it might even become the #2 450 on the block.

Or Suzuki will drop the ball and they will release just a bored out version of the Z400....I certainly hope Suzuki uses the dirtbike motor and releases a all new quad. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

The 400's are really the bike that most people should be riding. The 450's are in another whole different class, and are bikes for the enthusiast, and not well suited to the general public. The 400's probably have the most solid market niche of any bike there is!!! The 400EX and the Rancher, are Honda's bread and butter bikes, and the same with the Z400 for Suzuki. These bikes won't be disapearing for many years.
