I'm really liking what I see about this new General! But there is still a lot I would like to know that I haven't seen. I hope JC8 and Robert (Red Bluff Yamaha/Polaris) will comment on these! Does anybody know, or can anybody reasonably predict any of the following:

1. 100 hp, whereas the non-turbo XP is advertised at 107. Different motor, or just de-tuned, or ????

2. How will the gear ratio play out? When the first 800 came out, it was common knowledge that it would hit the rev limiter right at 55 mph. The 800S topped out at 65, and the XP 900 at 75 (all bone stock). Where will the 1000 General be?

3. I read somewhere that they expect 30" tires to rub, so max will probably be 29". Anyone know for sure? Where will they "rub"? Solvable by more pre-load, or a minimal lift kit? Stock tire size?

4. Gas tank capacity?

I might just have to take look when the red one comes out in March!
