They are testing several prototypes right now,thats probably why Jazmine Plante quit GNC in midseason.He's probably testing for them and will race for Bombardier next season.I'm glad I waited,there's going to be 3 more 450's to choose from by the summer.

I wouldn't count it out, Bombardier was set to release a DS400 around the same time Yamaha released the YFZ, but once they caught wind of the YFZ, Bombardier either totally scrapped or made some major changes to the design of the 400 so that when they do release a 450-class quad it will be right there with the Yamaha performance wise. So it would not surprise me to see a new Bombardier sometime this winter, they usually show first pics of new models in late January, early February. So we'll see. I have a feeling theres gonna be Bombardier, Suzuki, and Polaris 450s released this coming year. PS theres also some rumors that GasGas is going to start getting serious this year also.

If they put the same kind of effort into the quad as the skidoo mxz sleds than this thing will kick some serious *****.

he did break his leg but after leaving gnc to race in Canada.So it must have happened up here.Since he's from Quebec I thought it would make sense for Bombardier to use him as a test pilot being the best racer in Canada.Dirtwheels mensions the testing of prototypes and it's about the same time Jasmine left.Somethings up?

sounds like an interesting year for 2006:D bomb, suzuki, kawi, polaris, all potential 450ish producers:devil:

If they make one, hopefully they'll use some decent styling. Alot of these new body shapes look awful imo.

I'm sure if they do make one it'll have a mean motor.

i think kawisaki will be the last to put out their 450...from what i read in dirtwheels theyre not working with suzuki for their 450 and theres rumors of EFI or a v-twin 450...apparently its going to be geared towards the GNCC riders because dirtwheels says the rumors are coming out of the cross country pits...maybe we'll see some team green riders in the pro production class before too long...

all i can say is that 05/06 are going to be some wild years. so many companies could be designing 450s. bombardier, artic cat, suzuki, kawasaki, maby even atk/cannondale.

Jasmin is back by Honda Canada, he came up to race in Canada inorder to get the Canadian tittle, becuase Honda Canada wanted him too... therefore he did because he knew it would be easy to win but he didn t know that he would screw up on a double on his home town track, and broke his leg...

I highly doubt Jasmin to ride the Bombardier quads, because honda has his back why leave Honda??? i doubt this is true

It's possible because honda's throwing him peanuts if anything.If bombardier has a brain thell sign him.I think the hondas will be dialed in next season and clean house even if the new quads are released midseason.

I think Gust and Jones are gonna clean house this season in MX. Ballance will probably clean house in XC once again this coming season also. It should be a good battle between Hitt, Farr, and Little on the TT side.
