it seems as i read these posts i get the feeling some of you are slightly let down also about the top speed, the truth of the matter is Honda is going for another machine to dominate the racing industry remember when the Tecate and 250R came out the 250R wasn't the fasted stock bike the Tecate had that but which one is still the leading engine and over all design still dominating today? the 250 not becuz it was the fastest stock but becuz of how well built it was. now this time around place the Yamaha yzf in Tecate's shoes and put the TRX450 in the 250R's shoes and we'll see if History will hopefully (which im pretty confident it will) Repeat itself. im actually gitty to say the least the look is growing on my rapidly the idea of starring at a brand new Honda sport quad with Liquid Cooling...i need to change my pants now.
