Sadly, yes. I've been combing the dealers for one. It's just hard to get rid of the 400ex though. I love my quad, but I need some more power. I just don't know if I can justify buying a $8k quad. I don't know if I should just put in a big bore kit and do some suspension work, or just say screw it and get a Cannondale. Anyone got any thoughts?

Hey sand hopper, if you don't mind taking a drive up to Prescott there is a dealership called Hale's motors, they have a Cannondale there you can demo at the Yavapai Downs motocross track. My brother and I recently demoed it and are pretty impressed, so we are currently waiting til the Moto 440 comes out to see what it will ride like. I would trade in the 400EX for the C-dale without hesitation, they are way faster and handle just as well with a little more suspension travel. By the way, we will be practicing at Moto Grande this Friday night you should come join, the more quads the better!

I think my next quad will be a C-dale, too. They are VERY innovative, and seem to strive for customer service - and I need a quad I can race without modding too much. I won't be getting a C-dale for a while, though, since my 400 is brand new, and I have to win the argument with my husband first! That might take a while, but I'll win! BR>
Unless, of course, Honda happens to step up to the plate before my victory - then I'll have a tougher choice!

Dirtfiend,
I may just have to do that sometime. I would love to be able to ride one of those!!! As for Motogrande....I appreciate the invite VERY much, but I am racing at Speedworld on Sunday, and I don't want to spend Friday night away from my family as well as all day on Sunday......how's Motogrande these days? I haven't been there in a couple of months...last time I was out there was on a Thursday night and I was the only quad out there! I used to think Motogrande was the hardest track I had been on - then I raced at Verde Valley!!!!
Thanks again...maybe I'll go on another weekend!

I was anxiously awaiting Hondas new hi-po machine. Now that i see that didn't materialize, its a cannon for me next time. Any of you Honda guys the same??

I cant wait to throw my leg over a MOTO.

I always buy Honda, but I belive it is time to look around and see the what the other companies are building. I think the 440 Moto appears to be what all of the TRX 450 people are looking for. It's time to support a American company that has built what we asked for. Now whats the supply going to be and price???

Yes, the price is up there, but it is a racing quad. They are expensive to build up and if most everything is already done it might actually be cheaper. They claim their building them for the racer...
