Whoa whoa whoa...easy there! I hope you don't mean 100HP stock because that is nowhere close! Try 1/2 of that, but it is a beast no doubt about that!

You misread that, it goes 83 mph.



There was a law, that expired, no race quads could be imported from japan, to the us.

Although, I may be mistaken, I dont remember those years too well.

it doesnt really matter. point is they are too fast and powerful for even some of the most skilled riders.

end of story

Lawsuits were a consideration, but the sales must just not have been there.

one thing that didnt help is that suzuki was an odd company not a large one like yamaha and honda. they didnt have any great 2or3-wheelers to put them on the map. kinda like bombardir but without aleds or jetskeys
