Fascinating.I read somewhere that the 450 is an exact copy of the 08 CRF Honda.I wonder what percentage of these motorcycles are being produced in the U.S.?

If a pair of 2" brass balls isn't working, I doubt that the 3" model will make much difference.

I've often thought what an advantage that would be in the skanky,muddy,rooty,rocky terrain around here-especially in the hare scrambles.
Still,more weight,moving parts and I think it's about $4500.Still,it would be cool to try it.

I would like to hear from someone who as actually riden one.
I think it would be weird at first.

In theory, it should help pull you through the turn. However, for that price I would rather suffer the unreasonable rear wheel drive.. :'(

According to the mags,until you learn to ride it it's an arm pump generating machine.If you're sideways and countersteering the front wheel,when the rear spins the front will engage and yank you the other way.
I can imagine what an advantage it would be on some of those slick,rooty hills though.
