Really like the looks of that bike. I think Joe B. at CSC has mentioned that the RX4 is a couple years out.

Heck! I'll just take the floating front rotor off of it! That would fix every front brake ill we have!

Change the front frame crossbar from square to round ... to allow the CSC skidplate to rotate without removal during oil changes.

How would you improve the 2017 model?

I just changed the oil on my '16 model and that crossbar is round on mine. I never noticed that before. Still cannot rotate the skidplate because the downtubes get in the way. A little work with my bandsaw might correct that problem!

On the photo the BlackBike posted...I assume that is the 450 mule....note that the front brake is also radially mounted. That being the case I suspect the bike will have a number of subtle improvements that really do not run the manufacturing cost up much but make for a better machine. We already have a list of such 'improvements'. Now I really want to see that 450!
