Dads looking at a used 2008 Suzuki king quad 450 to putt around the ranch on and occasional summer trails in the mountains. Would this be sufficient for a 6ft 200 lb guy or should he look for something bigger?

 

That 450 will be plenty for that. A 450/500 class 4x4 will go pretty much anywhere the open class quads will, with the exception of the extreme mud/hills etc. The big difference is it just won't have the potential speed/acceleration of a bigger engine.

 

Thanks. That's pretty much what I explained to him but figured I would double check.

 

Your Welcome!

 

If the physical size of the quad fits him it will work just fine.

 

The 450 KQ is as big as Suzuki makes its the exsact same ATV as there 750KQ but with a smaller motor.

Its not a mid size chassis like the 400 KQ ,450 Grizzly and 420 Rancher.

A 300 lb 6'5 guy would not be cramped on it.2008 Suzuki KingQuadŽ 450AXi 4x4 ATVs
