And I'll be willing to bet this quad get's modified just as fast as every other machine out there. There are too many 'wanna be pro's' who use bling as their 'go fast', ego building fuel. And the funniest part about that is that there are WAY more recreational XC and racing XC riders than actual TRUE MX racers. And that includes the vast majority of people on this site.

They are gonna mod it whenever Cindi just said Doug would race it stock?
This quad wasn't made for XC or Trail Riding, like you just stated. Why would you consider spending over $1,000 on it to make it trail worthy when about 99% of quads offered are for trail riding? People make no sense. This isn't an XC or Trail quad at all. You don't wanna buy it because you ride trails, fine, every other quad out is made for trails pretty much. You have plenty of options.Quote:
I think it was dumb to only offer the quad this wide with 18" rear tires. That eliminates 75% of the riders out there. Not everyone races motocross, the majority are trailriders. I crossed this quad off my list of "which quad to buy" real quick. I'm not spending an extra $1,000 to make it trail worthy. And the extra $3,000 that I'd be spending is not worth the EFI and the T shaped seat...

:p Ok here it is. The new LTR450 is geared more for MX. Perfect, there isn't a quad out there more (MX)race ready than this new LTR450. (Don't forget I have talked to the ones riding the bike and yes it has been rode by both riders) Suzuki isn't stupid as some of you have said. They have a bike for both MX and XC ,Trail riding and nobody seems to see this yet.
LTR450 - MX
LTZ400 - XC & Trail Riding
They have them both. They didn't try to make one quad fit all catagories. They built two different quads to fit both catagories. (Seems kinda smart to me) They will still have the Z400 which improves every year. Either way you look as it there will always be something that you will change on any quad.
Maybe they have a braket that holds the number plate below the exhaust
;)
It very nice. But I think some of us are getting our hopes up just alittle. But I must say it looks damn good from them pictures!
I think it's exactly what we have been wishing for. It seems like Suzuki has listened to the racers and gave us what we want. You will hear no complaints from me.
I feel like Suzuki would have enough foresight in their design team to think about how to put a rear number on a race bike. GMFB:rolleyes:
Cindi, Me and my wife had the pleasure of watching the pro's 2nd moto at Loretta's with Doug's dad. Very nice fellow.
GOOD JOB SUZUKI! Can't wait to see it in person.....
is there any word on when you can buy them. i dont think ive read anything about that?
I think the specs sound great but I think it is ugly. Too pointy everywhere. It should be fast as hell though!
