well lets wait till it comes out to see if it will actually "blow everyone away".

I truly hope it does, but have learned a long time ago not to jump too soon. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
Should be interesting to say the least.
Like I said, competition is good! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][/quote]

Granted I would love to see it, and I hope they do...it just does not seem very logical at the moment. We'll just have to wait to see...

put it this way, the current z400 is already in competition with the 450's, i think the z450 is going to dethrone the yfz in a big way over the next year.

Winning races! And the only thing that the Z400 has modded more than the 450's in the pro's is bore and stroke.

I know your just jealous that they wont be making any more two strokes. Must be getting real boring on the two stroke side especialy since no one has made a new two stroke in a decade.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I just read an article in the new dirtwheels mag about the new z450 coming this summer. Man does it sound sweet. It is going to be all new from the ground up. Its supposed to debut later this summer. It will have a race ready suspension, wider a-arms. Cant wait to see it.
Which month of dirtwheels does this say it in??

Nope! not jealous at all... just tired of all the hype of just another mediocre powered quad. Would like to see something with some real HP from a production machine.
hmm, sled market using cutting edge 2 stroke technology... beating EPA regs while making big HP too... be careful with your statements that 'they' wont be utilizing this in the future, it could easily happen... making 4 stroke technology old/obsolete/inefficient once again.

Not boring over here either.... it's always fun to ~smoke~ some hotshot that's got a $pile$ of $$$ soaked into his thumper that still can't compete.

Besides.... It's great fun to get guy's like you all stirred up with your hair on fire [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

well they are also working on a rmx offroad bike too ,to take away sales from the wr450 bike.seems like they will use the quad motor in that too.
