Dang! I forgot about the Blast. I sure hope that the Venom isn't a rebadged Blast, unless it has a four stroke engine.
If the srx was $8000.00 we would all have one.Did it tho?
I don't see many SRX's on the trails.

I wonder if they are just renewing an expired name trademark? The SXV was a proaction platform chassis. :shrug

That might well be, but the other side of it is that the two sleds currently produced by Yamaha have reptilian names, Viper & Sidewinder. Others have suggested that Yamaha might use "Enticer", "Exciter", or "Elan" or one of the other old names, but "Venom" is the one that really fits in with their current scheme.I wonder if they are just renewing an expired name trademark?

Also, Yamaha didn't renew the Enticer, Exciter or Elan trademark names, just Venom.

If this does happen I predict they will be 100% rebadged Cats like the 600 Transporter, and that’s a very sad state of affairs.Im telling ya...600cc-800cc 2stroke is gona happen

Hoping not also... but from what I've heard and who from I'll roll the dice on this one...…If this does happen I predict they will be 100% rebadged Cats like the 600 Transporter, and that’s a very sad state of affairs.
