I see the redesigned them for 2019, anyone have Any King Quads 750, even earlier years. Thoughts good - bad welcome.

I don't own a Suzuki but for what it's worth, the dealer I bought my Kodiak from also sold Suzuki and said the Suzuki were the most trouble-free brand machine they worked on. I went with the Kodiak anyway.

The good - one of, if not the best you can buy. If you can afford.

The bad - absolutely horrible to sell if you're a dealer - they never come back for repair. A coworker was a dealer he said it was the worst machine he ever sold no repeat customers because they lasted so long and no repair.

I've only ever worked on one and that was because of a mouse invasion

I've got an 05 700 king quad that I've had since 2007. Somebody completely destroyed it and I got it as a basket case. By destroyed I mean crashed into something so hard they pushed the front bumper assembly into the radiator which pushed everything into the fan. They ran it like that until the fan blades wore through the radiator and eventually until they blew it up. I stripped it all down and rebuilt it. I worked at a Suzuki dealership at the time which made it affordable. I've worked it pretty hard pushing snow and dragging logs and whatever else for over ten years and I've had to replace the drive belt twice and one rear CV shaft. I couldn't have asked for a better machine.

I have a 2009 750 king quad and have had no issues with it. The only thing I have done to it is changed the oil, air filter, and spark plug. I bought it brand new and use it pretty hard pushing snow and for trapping. Owned a Suzuki Eiger 400 before this one and the same thing,it was a very reliable machine.

I have an 06 King Quad 700. Very powerful machine. Smooth riding and stable. The only negative thing I can say is it’s a lot of motor to turn over on cold days. I keep a battery tender on it year round. It has a pull starter.....you’ll have arms like Popeye if you pull on it many times.

My neighbor had an early model "Queen Quad", it was a real rough ride, compared to a Polaris.

Have you noticed decline in the number of people who ride 4 wheelers? I think a lot of farmers still buy side by sides, but as with most outdoor activities I don't see any kids riding 4 wheelers, or motorcycles anymore.

Everyone is ONLINE playing on Trapperman! ! !

How about a virtual trapping scenario on here? LOL

I've got a Camo 2013 King Quad 750 that I bought as a holdover in 2014. Love it as much as the day I bought it. Shouldn't be too long before they do their 0% for 5 years deal if they aren't doing it already. Strongly recommend.

The Good- Plenty of power and are pretty user friendly for oil changes, front and rear diff changes etc.

The Bad- At least on mine the battery situation isn't the best. I've gone through 2 or 3 batteries now. I keep a tender on it and that seems to work better. in 2013 they didn't put a pull starter on it stock. Found that out the hard way smh.

Had a 09 450 king quad. Got rid of for 2 reasons. Realized I not only wanted but needed power steering, was just to much when fully loaded while trapping or backing a trailer when hauling wood. Did not go with another Suzuki due to tearing c v joint boots on outside of rear axles. They have a solid plate under that boot and would not let the mud out. During cold weather, would build up and freeze, thus cutting the boot. Other than that a pretty much bullet proof machine, maybe they have changed that, or I was one of the few. When this happened while in Mississippi, was last straw. All the name brands seem to be very good, each with their little quirks.
