    Wait wait wait - just one cotton-pickin' minute. . .Who stole my Raptor and painted it yellow? Wow, I'm glad Suzuki is "getting back in it" but I think them boys should have spent a little more time and came up with some more original ideas, sorry but it resembles the Raptor a little too much. Am I alone here ?

    This suzuki im afraid is going to kill our ex's in the shootout, Did you guys see the horsepower on the drz motor it's around 41 stock. I dont even want to see this thing hit the showrooms, as soon as they test it our 400's arent going to be worth much im afraid. I talked to a dealer yesterday who said the suzuki rep told him that this thing was designed to all around kill the 400 in all the areas that the 400 beat the other sport bikes and to top it off he said it would eat the raptor from start to finish in all out power and speed. Im not sure it will live up to all that they are hoping but ive known this dealer for along time and i doubt that he is making any of the story up. He said they waited to release it because they were waiting to see what the competition was going to release this year and suzuki didnt want to release something that wasnt going to be king of the hill.:devil

    It will be a first year bike so it will have it problems. I wouldn't buy one untill a couple years down the road untill they get all the problems worked out. But I wouldn't buy one anyways becouse it dose not have Honda on it.

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, and the Raptor was supposed to be a super quad as well. 50% bike 50% rider. Bring that yellow abortion of a Raptor on! (just trying to keep my spirits up)

    Didn't I read its a 4-cylinder motor? I think I did in another post on here, in which case the DRZ motor is not a 4-cylinder. Maybe that was a misprint of some sort? Can anyone confirm it is or isnt a 4 cylinder?
