found this on DBW, have cut and pasted the words.

I was in a Yamaha shop yesterday in Perth, drooling over the '08 YZ450's
and I over heard to of the blokes that work in the store talking about a new banshee quad.
A quad with a 500 twin 4 stroke. I know this engine exists in a snow mobile, it is a siamese YZ250F engine. I remember seeing it ages ago and thinking that would be sweet in a bike. But it would be a beast in a quad.
I wonder if the rumors will become true?
this is the link.

Looking at the DW April edition now.
Don't think I'd buy anything from that Yamaha dealer in Perth, there market intelligence is pretty non existent.
As a matter of fact, I might call them up and try to sell them my Special Edition Yamaha Moto4 that's in the 'Buy & Sell'.
