Mongoose 5xx (myth?)
« on: January 20, 2008, 09:30:49 PM »
A while back I heard a rumor Kymco may produce a sport ATV with 520cc motor. I didn't really want to spread it around too much, but I read on another site a rumor about a 510.
Has anyone else heard this rumor. Can it be substantiated?

Google does not turn much up.  I would like to hear more.

510 sounds like a KTM displacement.

Yes, that does sound like a polaris/ktm thing. Initially I heard that they were going to come out with a 400cc sport atv (Like the Artic Cat DVX I suppose) then later I heard it was a 520. I saw the 510 as speculation on another board. Just a rumor though. I have heard many. Some pan out, some don't.
I sure hope this one is happens though! I would like to see a 4 valve larger displacement sport/racer atv. In the US we don't take the 250 ATV class serious.

The 375 will be after the side x side then the 510sport bike.
Then the 700 goes in the side x side and on the 500 chasis.
