Default What happened???

I just noticed that Yamaha seems to be leaning towards naming everything in their 4x4 lineup a "Grizzly". What is up with that??? I don't like the scheme myself. It was nice when you could just start rambling about your Grizzly or Kodiak or Big Bear or Timberwolf and everyone knew what size/features you were talking about. Now you gotta say, well I have a Grizzly 700 or I have a Grizzly 450 or I have a Grizzly 125, etc...

They seem to be using the Raptor name in the sport ranks now too at free will.


Might just be me, but I prefer for each size of machine to have it's own name, thats all.

Blaster, Warrior, Banshee, Raptor, Kodiak, Wolverine, Big Bear, Grizzly, etc...

I also agree for the same name thing. I have a raptor 350 and parts usually say "raptor" and it doesnt say raptor 700,660,350,80 or even 50. gets annoying at times.
