[QUOTE="cleonard, post: 16819, member: 21"] I think a big reason for the 230 is due to the more relaxed smog regs. Over 280cc displacement they get a bit tighter. I'm pretty sure this is why there Yamaha went with the 250cc dual sport. With FI I just don't see why a road legal one can't be made. Don't forget the lawyers. They have final veto over everything. The 600 got the 88 CR cartridge forks in 91. Honda already has the 686cc XR650R derived engine on the TRX700 that would be a good base for a factory dual sport. Too bad we will never see it. Make me eat my words Honda, please. [/QUOTE]
