I was htinking that they are doing like a banshee thing, but instead of 2 they made it into one cylinder.The picture i saw was interesting tho , got a little confused wiht it then found out what was going on.

I do know that in Dirt wheels the engineer from Honda was interviewed about the 450R, and he said that the 400ex is great but is going to be redone in the future.
