Finally you XC guys will have somewhat of an idea what us MX guys have to purchase to get a quad ready to race!

1 feature i do like is how u can remove the plastic with headlight and have it still look good,,other than the 450r it left a hudge hole and it made people by hoods..i think im going to purchase this quad when i make the move to a 450

I think it looks good. I too like the option of removing the headlight the way they offer it. IMO the headlight looks like poop anyways. To me the bike looks a lot like the YFZ from the side with the only real change coming in the way the radiator shroud ties into te gas tank (more ala 450r than yfz). I like the look, the heal guards have gotta go though, those are big enough to require their own zip code. Also, Suzuki needs to give up on that darn seat, why do they continually feel like people need a couch on the backside of their quad?

Over all though, I really like the look of the bike and I look forward to throwing dirt in it's face at the hand of my HONDA 450r.

after looking on ********.com at the picks of doug's bike, I'm not so sure I like the look. The front fenders are really wide, maybe it'll look better once they're cut, but as of now, I don't like them that wide. The rear fenders also look a little funny the way they point back, I'd rather see something a little more sublte in that department. The absence of the light doesn't look as good as I thought it would either, but then again, that might be because the front fenders are so wide.

I really really really like the exhaust and how tucked in the motor is.

All in all, the Honda 450r IMO is by far the best looking quad (once you put a quadtech hood on it).

Well I know i wouldnt pay $7300 for a bike that looks like that and its a suzuki haha

who cares what it looks like stock, once its raced out it wont look anything like it, honestly as it looks decent i dont care, hoods will be out....plastic...the stock look of a quad doesnt even really matter anymore, theres so many alternatives now

Without the front light I think it looks great... now if we can just do something about those heel gaurds..

I dont like it, that light in the front makes it look ugly in my opinion, and the rear exahust is just ugly in my opinion. Resembals the YFZ450 too much (I think).

Performance wise I'm guessing that its going to be a top spot contender in the near future. However I am not impressed by the appearance of the new quadracer. I do like how Suzuki finally stepped up and added EFI and made a quad that appeals to racers, although they do need to get one out for the XC crowd as well.

I don't like the look at all, but i do think it is going to run really good and i guess that is all that matters...

I Like the looks. Other than the foot guards.
