its not getting released in the US until november, which means itll prolly be a few months after that until it gets here? so it woulda been a long wait! _________________ 2002 SE Banshee |

hey just one note
the normal 09 is same as 08 ??? so if ya buy one of these ya cant use second standard 09 or older 450 parts as plastics and alot of other stuff are different so will have to buy new and genuine till aftermarket companys start production of em _________________ black covered in 5.7 powered oversize quad

I honestly think the weight reflects reality........it's heavy if you look at the specs but if you weighed all the different models at 49" full of oil and fuel I'm sure it isn't that bad.

curb weight is wet weight.
not sure i like the idea of a cast aluminium frame though, sure maybe lighter and stronger, but if it does break its much MUCH harder to weld. _________________ suicide bombers, if there were more people like them, there would be less people like them... |
