Let's see here. Yamaha = Pianos, ATv's, Televisions, Motorcycles, turntables, keyboards, stereo amps. Tell me whats the difference? Cannondale is making mechanical devices, Yamaha makes a lot of different things. Your analogy sux.

 

The pontiac!! Now thats ugly!!!

 

If cannondale were smart, and wanted a bike that looked nice, they wouldve kept it the way the original pictures had it looking like. when i first saw it i thought it looked great, then i saw the updated version, and it looked like sh*t. i agree it does look like a mini quad too, well the plastics do anyway

 

Olds GUTLESS??? Ever run against a 68 442? Gutless my A$$!!! Owned 3 Cutlass' and loved every V8 powered one of em. As for the Cannondale, good for them. I hope the sport quad market keeps growing. Not gonna give up my Raptor for one but heck the more sport machines out there the better. I'd be happy if schwinn made quads too!

 

when i went to land between the lakes last weekend.There was one cannondale and it had alot of problems well his battery wouldnt stay charged and the clutch kept slipping..All of his buddies were making fun of him..i didnt know him.ohh yea it didnt come with any tools and he had to use mine...

 

1970 Olds Cutlass w/big block 455cid 375hp is gutless...whew. ok! LOL!

 

you said you helped a guy on a cannondale did you happen to hear the guys name. I'm pretty sure thats some of my friends that went down there in the group there wass prob some banshees a 400ex maybe a raptor a wolverine and a 2x4 rancher if you happened to pay attention anyway my friend that was there said he didn't think the dealership put it together very good lots of loose nuts and stuff

 

I agree with you minehunter, it's amazing what the big conglomorate companies can make, and make very well. Kawasaki makes huge barges that travel across the oceans. Bombardier makes executive Jet planes, Honda makes their own brand of cars as well as the Acura line. I could go on and on--You get the right people to engineer these things and you can come up with a quality product.

 

Nice post stebob,

I own a 1970 Oldsmobile 442 W-30. Click on the link below to see a picture of it!

 

I personally feel the Cutlass is "Gutless"! Big ol luxury muscecars, not in the same vein as say a Hemi Cuda or 440+6 RoadRunner, but nice cars none the less.
