Yea sixsix it is. I dont think they gave it a fair shake. For one thing the jetting was way off(I went from175 to195, big difference. Caster was off too, made it very stiff steering. They had to plow the snow off the track right before the test so they complained that the front tires got them dirty. I dont know of any front fenders that keep dirt off except on theDS650. I'll never sell it, can't wait to pump it up!!!

Dirtwheels did a cover story on it, and ATV sport did a feature story. Rath built it and raced it.

I'm sure KTM has thought about this...but Cannondales demies, has probably got them nervous about throwing their hat into the ring. It's not enough to make a quad that can rip. it's got to be affordable. Keep in mind cannondale also made this move before the Z, YFZ, and TRX. Now it would be that much harder.

But if you didnt notice, even though Cannondale is no more, their quads are still out there Kicking A$$ and taking Trophies. but im sure KTM would be more successful, look at their dirtbikes, they are nice, a little expensive but well worth it. as well as the best Dual-sport bikes there are. just give them time and i bet they will have a nice quad or two, or three?
