On Friday, June 8, the entire YAMAHA lineup for 2001 ATV will be posted on the yamaha website. It will post after the last dealer meeting has started. You will be able to see the lineup in all of its glory at that time. My dealer told me this on Saturday. He said his rep has seen the new models, but was sworn to secrecy. He did tell the dealer that the Banshee, Blaster and Warrior were in the lineup for next year, but wouldn't (couldn't) say anything else. My dealer is going to Las Vegas for a meeting on Tuesday, the 6th. He will have all of information on Wednesday, the 7th. He said there is another meeting in Florida on Friday, the 8th, that is why the website won't be updated until then. I hope this helps, I am as excited about the possibilities as all of you are!

 

Notice how it says "new 2001 ATVs" (plural)... I think we will be pleasantly surprised!

 

Dealer told me that the new 660 cc high performance quad will be named RAPTOR. I hope it's not out of my price range!
