[QUOTE="BadgerMan, post: 168466, member: 21176"] I think Honda is playing a cheap game of one-upmanship with Yamaha with regard to the TTR125 and 225. It would be so easy to better the two TTR’s by adding a rear disk and some better suspension components but that would price the new Hondas out of the market. Instead, they appear to have chosen to supply the consumer with a tad more displacement. They are pretty cool looking bikes though. I would love to have one of the 230’s for my son right now. However, by the time they are available he will into a full size bike. I am starting to question whether Honda is really interested in competing in the “serious off road bike” market. To put things in perspective, the last time I heard, the Marysville auto plant was producing 2000 Accords a day! That’s one plant and one model. Imagine being an Engineering type at Honda and asking for an R&D budget to develop a CRF250R motocrosser and enduro with anticipated sales of 5000 units! It would be a very small slice of Honda’s pie. Maybe they are giving up on trying to compete with the Yamaha’s and KTM’s of the world. [/QUOTE]
