I've looked on the Honda Powersports website and it only goes to 2009. Just wondering what the changes are if there are any...

No 2011 were produced. I believe they took some of the 2009 models and rebadged them as 2010.

Doubt it. Honda has been out of 2009's for a while. Joe Byrd cant even get 2009's from Honda as there is not any

I did a search, just to see what kind of inventory is left. There are plenty of 08's and 09's. From California to Florida. Not sold out yet. I thought Joe was going back to a 04/05 model? :macho

this is what was said about the 250r back in the early 90"s

What makes you so sure!!!!
I personally feel Honda is out of the sport/race market,

They dont sell,and all the environmentalist have all but, made anything besides a utility quad out to be the death of the planet!!

IF anything comes out it will be sold for closed courses only,and wont be able to register for forestry trails, and will be produced in very limited numbers,and be much more expensive!

Are the TRX450Rs good racing fourwheelers?

yes and no. Thy are some of the toughest and easiest to work on but in stock form not the fastest. They can be made fast for pretty cheap though.

Looks like Honda is releasing a 2012 TRX400EX, it is listed on their website. Looks exactly the same as a 2009, but they are selling a 2012. That tells me Honda hasn't given up on the sport quad market yet.

I was so hoping they would release one. I picked up a 2009 YFZ450R off craigslist and now looking for a second quad. I was holding out hoping they would release a 2012 but no go. There are alot or rumors floating around one is being tested they are just waiting for previous inventory to sell out.

I know yamaha is cleaning up with the R and X models of the 450 atm. I would figure honda would like a piece of that pie but who knows. Especially with Suzuki being shut down for the time due to EPA stuff haha.
