JHunter, my mistake...thanks for correcting me. Wouldn't that be a motor in a quad! Put the R6 in my raptor...I'd be dead within a week, but damn, I'd be smilin' when I went out!

I'll just sit back and see what they come out with.

You guys r sooooo dumb. Suzuki is not makin kawasaki's quads nOW! They r sharing models in all of there product. Zuki got 3 dirtbike models and kawi got 3 quad models the z and the lt 80 and 50. This 650TWIN is all kawy. They have been testing it for some time now. suzuki gets to slap yellow plastic on this one and call it theres.

Hey Fez thanks for clearing this up for us you little Sh*t! next time I would leave out calling everyone in the forum dumb! But then again I would exptect such a comment from someone that is trying to talk about a 650 bike and riding a BLASTER!! How old are you like 10?

Ok now that I've vented a little bit I feel better. Just next time dont go calling people names we are all just trying to have a nice conversation here. So until you learn some manners get of the CPU and go back to watching Nickalodeon!!

Well guys it looks like the rumors that I heard were true!! Now the only question is.... How BAD will the beast be? It apears that it is going to be automatic, which in my eyes hurts more than a little. I just have to wonder though what to expect out of this V-Twin engine. I would venture to say that it is going to be something to be reconed with when it comes to power. Only time will tell though!

TheRaptorMan, I guess I have to give you credit. I think this is the first documented case of "my dealer told me a new quad was coming" that actually was correct. Amazing.

Too bad the Honda dealers don't have such reliable sources. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Hell to be honest I didn't know if it would turn out to be true myself that is why I put "Rumor" on the thread LOL [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I was really excited that this was coming true, until I realized everything came true, including a shaft drive auto trans. I wouldn't purchase it because of that. Too bad, because it has monster potential. Wonder if they had a problem mating a durable enough drive system to it, so they had to go shaft???

Thats the only thing that I could think of. I still have to wonder what kind of power and pickup that it will have being an auto. Still though a v-twin 700 still just sounds nice rolling off the tounge!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
