Default SUZUKI SUCKS

Hey guys..

The title was just to get your attention...although I DO have some griping to do about suzuki..

it seems to me, that suzuki likes to sit back on their asses, and let all the other major brands do hard work in r&d to create great new quads that are improving all the time...then along comes lame old yellow, and they basically duplicate the bike, and add liquid cooling, or reverse or something like that, and claim to "DOMINATE" the atv world....ie the lt250, the z250, z400, and the future z450....i even heard talk of a 600 or 650cc 4-stroke engine from suzuki *coughRAPTORcough* Then we get a ton of suzuki guys on here telling us how much better their z400 is than our 400ex...even a company like polaris basically upgraded a raptor, made it uglier, and called it a pred....its all just a little annoying to me...im not trying to bash any LTZ or polaris owners, but Id really like to see something new and original from these brands in the ...I guess thats what I'm really trying to say here...I WANT SOMETHING DIFFERENT....like...a production line of LE DS650's that come stock with Hayabusa engines [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Is it just me, or do other people realize this too??

poo on yellow

Ummmm....The pred is nothing like the raptor. I agree with the other things you said like the z250 is the same thing as a 250ex. But i dont think polaris copies other brands.

who cares?? Do you want just one company to make bikes? You should be glad there is a bigger variety out there of whichever type of bike you want.

cry me a damn river you baby.

Progress...........................

So who was Suzuki copying when they turned the ATV world upside-down with the LT500?

Admitedly they've been watching and waiting since ATVs made a return. But the fact that Kawasaki and Arctic Cat are selling z400s too kinda puts a boot into your point.

I don't like the clones idea, and do think Suzki copies honda a lot with upgrades. But I am happy because I got a nice bike out of the deal, that is the only reason I bought a suzuki, it is an improved Honda.


I dont see how a pred is near like a raptor though.

OK, correct me if I'm wrong, but the LT250R did come out before the Honda 250R right? (1985 to Honda's 1986) And Suzuki was the first on 4 wheels. Doesnt sound too bad to me. Sometimes the smart ones lay back and learn from others.

The Predator is NOTHING like the Raptor. I don't agree with suzuki being a copy cat at all. Where do you think Artic Cat got the design for their new 400cc bike? Suzuki!
