prediction the rear will crack and break due to its narrow cast aluminum design.

Every first year bike will have a few problems. Honda has yet to make one that has not and no one else that I know of. Yamaha has spent a good deal of time on this bike so it should be pretty good as first year units go but nothing is like getting a few thousand into the field getting beat to heck to make a problem show up.

I have a feelin it will be o.k. except for the guys that ride mx and really, really give it everything it's got everytime they ride it. No quad can take that abuse, even with aftermarket shocks, frames, the whole nine-yards, you still got to rebuild them every so often in these conditions. I think they'll be fine for regular riding and smaller jumping because yamaha learned from past mistakes and actually they've been putting this quad together for quite a while.
