For Immediate Release

Honda Returns To ATV Racing With Tim Farr and the TRX450R

Las Vegas, NV - American Honda announced today at its annual dealer convention in Las Vegas, that the company will return to full-time ATV racing with champion racer Tim Farr and the new TRX450R.

"We are excited to return to ATV racing," said Ray Blank, Honda's Motorcycle Division Vice President. "Racing is part of Honda's DNA, so it's only natural we make a return to ATV racing with the TRX450R. Tim is the perfect choice for us. He has been racing and winning on Hondas for years. We are glad to have him as part of Team Honda."

Farr, who has won numerous titles aboard the now legendary TRX250R, will be contesting the Clear Channel/SFX Pro Quad Stadium Series, ATVA MX Series and the ATVA TT Series aboard the new TRX450R.

"The TRX450R is the best ATV I've ridden in my career," said Farr. "I can't wait to start competing and winning on it. It's awesome to have Honda get back into ATV racing."

In addition to the series mentioned above, look for Farr to be competing on the TRX450R in the 2003 Baja 1000.

Its about time honda got in the game on sponsoring someone and showing there name around the track. pretty sad when for all thse years they have had riders talking up and busting there butts to give the 250r and 400ex the legendary status it has. It wasn't honda, it was all the riders who did it. Just my opinion

Yahama upped the ante with the YFZ,...and still looks like they may have one upped Honda on the quad...time will tell.

Sorta bummed on Honda's entry....

Honda definitely one upped Yami with Tim Farr as the hired gun......

What will Yami do in response...any ideas???

What does Kawy have up it's sleeve????

Suzuki ....will they answer????

One thing for sure is the National Scene just got a whole lot more colorful....

This could bring ATV racing up to the level of what it should be,....I hope!

Good job TIMMY, not too many other riders deserve it more than he does. I bet Yamaha is out scouting right now.

1. yes they did

2.who knows, from what it sounds like, chad duvall isnt riding FST next year, (mickey said bryan cook may take his spot) so theres an option, though it is xc

3. i heard 300 two stroke

4. suzuki dosent have a motor to answer with unless its a two stroke (see #3) or, it is possible they build a new motor. they have a mx 250 four stroke now, a 450 should not be far behind, maybe it will be used in a atv also

and the nationals wont be any more colorful than they are now-RED ON THE PODIUM

So this means us Desert Racers and crews will get a first hand view of the 450R and what it is capable of in November. Cool. They must have FAITH in their product to put it through the Baja 1000.....I like that.

Now guys and gals. you all realize that the bike they will be riding will hardly resemble the bike your buying o the showroom floor right. DOn't mean to be a smart *** but it is very well possible that RC's factory bike for instance is much better than the factory Yami bike but that the Yami showroom model is better then the Honda showroom model.

Fact of the matter is that its still %90 rider and %10 bike.

I would bet that RC can win motos on a BMX bike.
