I guess all the rumors can be put to rest. They just wanted to put out a quality product.

Who knows the real story, but I believe they had some sort of failure on the early release bikes and had to correct the problem, hence the delayed delivery.

Best looking Rmz450 IMO - http://www.putfile.com/pic.php?pic=2/3900151783.jpg&s=x1

Its a supermoto'ed Rmz450 - even though I love dirtriding I still think supermoto is awesome and looks more fun (that is if you get get street legal - I dont think having one only as a track tool is any fun).

EDIT - If you didnt know, the tires have tire warmers on them to make the rubber more sticky... since Ive never seen them do that on a dirtbike I figured some of you might not know what they were.
