im kinda dissapionted in the looks of this thing, i was kinda hoping for a more present looking style vs the future look that they're all goin for imo its kinda ugly, but this thing is gonna be a performer and thing to beat

Yeah, way to be positive about a new bike coming out, and pushing the sport of ATV racing to a level it has not yet reached fully (I say fully, because Cannondale almost succeeded in pushing it to that level)

Whether or not if fits YOUR personal preference, you have no room to say that it "SUCKS period". Like you have a higher knowledge, that helps you make a decision on it being a bad bike.

Your just on an inferior machine, going to have to learn to accept that.

I like it. It doesn't look all that great but the one with the Epic stuff on it and the lights and stuff off looks better to me than any others out right now. Watching the vidoe with the guy with the long hair riding it, it looks like the shocks are a little bouncy BUT, to me, it also looks like it will go a lot faster than he can. I think its a winner. If I bought one, that would be as close to owning an Aprilia as I will ever get. I didn't know Aprilia used Rotax motors. That thing should really haul ***. Actually having a bike out that requires a-arms, shocks rebuilt, axle, a pipe and thats it would be wonderfull. Thats getting back to the 2-stroke days when it was half-*** affordable.

Yeah, Im dissapointed too. I like all the innovations they put into it but they went way too far in the styling department. Im just gonna sit back and watch

[OutlawBill]

I too am disappointed with the stock looks but once you remove the headlight it does not look a big yellow bug. In cross country racing it should rule but in MX if you have too but all that steel a-arm swing arms and axle on the advantage will be less.

Also forgot to mention....they didnt seem to be too concerned about the center of gravity too much like many other quads. We all know this is very important.....Radiator in the front like a 700?
