I think someone very important has been kidnapped from yamaha's product development team. The guy who comes up with the NAMES! I understand that when something is successful, it's a good idea to run with it, but I'm really tired of having to explain what model I'm talking about whenever I mention Grizzly or Raptor. 50, 80, 125, 350, 450, 660, 700!?!? Anybody else feel this way?

Of course that also extends into the visual development, now that all the bikes look the same. A brand can have a common style within their models, but to name everything the same and have them all look like clones, kinda disappointing.

 

yamaha isnt the only one.
