Yeah it's big money but you get one hell of a quad for that price and I'm saying they still will sell alot of them. Look at anyone racing MX or Sx and see the amount of money in there bikes and you will see the difference   but now for trail riding that's a mountain of money and not worth it in my book. Still one bad mofo

hasnt been released yet


well if they don't have long travels there is one upgrade that people will do..       in the lates issue of dirt wheels they say you have to take off the rear shock to remove the exhaust...   how gay is that..    i pull my exhaust to do some deep cleaning from time to time..   that would get real old...   i still would dump money into a yamaha any day..    :lol:

Thats the idea behind this bike, that you don't have to do anything to it.
