when exactly is it coming out?
after looking at the link rancher posted, i wonder if it really will come out, In every pic i see of this bike, the shocks are always different, I have seen it with 450r based shocks, piggy back shocks, and lt-r based shocks. I doubt they change that around that much to just be coincedence.

It should come out considering it has the YFZ, 450R, and LTR to keep up with =x

don't knwo why folks say it will be set up for woods racing cause thats what they said about the z400 and the kfx 400 just because  it has reverse there are some of us that don't like to push our mess  to  turn around in tight areas. then there are the ones that arent  full throtel mx and like to  ride trails and that lovely reverse comes in handy. so i think it will be right up there with all of them on the mx track. and no it want have anythign to do with  suzuki because they had a big fall out over the  design  so they are makin them seperate

hmf slip on rejeted to match it ac propegs with heal gaurds. and i plan on stage one hotcams

When they make a sport quad.. they design it to compete with other quads and then put it into production because that is all the pro's are allowed to use these days is production quads. The reverse option was definatly geared towards the 450 rider who didnt like getting off and pushing their bike back.. I dont know what you have seen, but from the MX tracks I have been to, there is way more than enough room to turn around a corvette if needed. So that is why people are thinking it would be geared to the 450 racing GNCC riders for when they clip a tree or hop a rut and have to back out.
