I've heard a few members say there dealer has the R450's in, I don't know if this is true or not since I havn't been to any of my dealers recently, but if there on the floor somebody has to have one. I was really looking forward to some real world feedback from some of you guys.

Not released yet.
In fact, they are petitioning the ATVA to let them race it without being released.

Oh, so they havn't even hit any dealer floors yet?


Do the quads have any type of one time exemption rule like the AMA does for MX/SX?

Nope, non on dealer floors.
I donno about any exeptions. When Honda was on the deadline, Zuki made the ATVA/AMA uphold the 100 machine released rule. I'm sure Honda will say something if Zuki want something special.
I don't understand why it's taking so long. They have been testing them since summer.:confused

I wouldn't blame Honda for saying something if Suzuki did that to them.

I to am wondering why it is taking so long. Last minute changes?

I just got my latest DirtWheels mag yesterday and they do in interview with Jones riding the R450 and his impression of it. Suzuki wouldn't let DW test one yet though. Jones and Gust said this is flat out the best atv racing quad ever built. Jones said he has ridden yfz450, Honda 450r and 250r, and this machine is way better then any of those. DW asked Jones if they had this atv last year if they would've won the championship and he said without a doubt. There was a Honda 450R on hand and Gust waxed it easily in every drag race they said. Get the mag there's alot of pics too.

Im not saying what Jones and Gust said isn't true, but you have to remember they work for Suzuki, they are going to talk it up all they can.

Wayne Hinson is the drive behind "team Zuki". He said it's the best factory race quad. Wayne is a straight shooter. So I bet it's going to be a good quad.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
