I just heard that Yamaha found out that someone listed the pics early and took them all off.

 

im likeing that new black banshee!!!

 

What do you think the reservoir under the rear left fender is for? Would they have coolant back there?

 

Unless they added a windshield washer system [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] that sure looks like coolant.

 

That thing is so sweet.

 

It looks like the same coolant reservoir as the Raptor. It is in the same place on the Raptor.

 

Where are the vents for the radiator?

 

never mind it is low mounted. Duh

 

This is by no means a attack on Yamaha or Yamaha Guys:
How many of you would buy another first year Yamaha Sport quad? We all know about Raptor tranny probs. It is not the fact that they lunched, it is the fact that they told everybody to take care of it themselves. I am not suggesting that the tranny will fail, but what if some part does, What will they do? Did they learn? I would say no since they sold so many Raptors, some of you even bought a 01' had a faliure, no warranty and bought another. I doubt they learned anything about taking care of customers. Man it would be nice to be in their shoes, screw your customers around and they still have to come back, because the product is better than the alternative. We know it will be overpriced until the competition comes out. But then again, the Honda could be expensive to start with.
So how many will roll the dice on the first year 450?
I might.........

 

Yeah who knows on reliability. I wonder if it is replacing the warrior?
