this new 450 LOOKS sick......supposed to be lighter than any other 450 made and have 70 HP.......i saw this in the new Dirtwheels mag i got the other night.....it looks cool and comes with REALLY nice things on it straight from the factory such as suspesion, wheels, nerfs and a ton more stuff check it out
HIGHLAND: A NEW U.S.-MADE ATV | News |
 
pretty badass.....whats up with the g meter.....it remembers how hard each landing was, thats crazy lol........to much electronics for a quad tho imo....just more stuff that could go wrong
 
yea it said in dirt wheels that it had a very complicated computer system...i think it kinda looks like a can-am quad kinda in sumways...maybe is just the color scheme
 
yea when i got the mag a couple days ago i was like dad look at this the new can-am make 70hp he was like oh cool.....then later that night i was reading through it and seen it wasnt a can-am....it was the new quad
 
quads are going to end up like cars sooner or later......computers with diagnostic codes and sh*t like that.

Like that isnt already happening? What ever happened to good old jetting the carb? Now we have EFI on quads :o, quads with the computers, hell the raptor 700 has a check engine service light that comes on. Plug in one of those meter things you get the codes for whats wrong.
 
i've been wanting to build a quad with a 450 in it and put an aftermarket fuel injection system on it. who knows when i'll ever get around to it tho lol
 
that thing is really nice I like it a lot.......these new quads are so high tech like my can am its pretty cool I have a low gas light,oil checik light overheat/low,and a neutral light like most quads but the other 2 is pretty cool and advanced
 
ya that was in the dirtwheels ^^ i have heard nothing about a 250 2stroke quad in design.. ill ask my friend he knows people at honda. well figure out what is going on at honda
 
I looks a lot like the cannondales did. Pretty awesome, Too bad I don't have the money to buy anything new. I'd much rather buy American made products.
