Lets hope that it's true. This rumour has been around for the past 6 months. It would be my luck though. I'm just finishing up hot rodding the grizz with the cam and piston mod.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]

Hopefully it would be a true 800cc machine instead of the Polaris line of thinking where you make a 760cc machine and round it UP to 800cc. Must be some New kind of math?????

Not new at all. All manufacturers have done it for years.

An 800 would be very cool. It would be nice if they dressed it up a little too, like the Sportsman, with nice rims, exhaust, etc. just for show. And the kodiak 450 is actually a 421cc, Why they didn't call it a 425 who knows and who cares.

Yep, like the Timberwolf 250 being 229cc, at least they called it a "250 class" engine.
