Whoever owns a KFX 400 tell us a little about it.
About how fast does it go
Hows the performance.... is it just for sand or can it go in mud and water
is it a good quad?

I'm interested to see what is done with the markings on the machine in regards to the engine covers, stuff like that. I haven't noticed yet, but does the Suzuki version have "Suzuki" all over the side covers and stuff, and if so, does the Kawasaki have separate "Kawasaki" covers prepared for it, or are all the parts lacking identifying marks, etc. Kinda like how the Chevy Camaro and Pontiac Firebird are identical mechanically, and the Chevy Trucks and GMC trucks are identical mechanically. Also, will there be mysterious price differences between the Kawasaki OEM components, and the Suzuki OEM components?

Behind the exhaust header and shielding you will see Suzuki stamped on the motor. Its on the Arctic Cat quads and its going to be on the Kawasaki quads most likely. Suzuki is number one!

Goto www.kawasaki.com and see for yourselves. I kike the yellow on the Z's. We would have gotten the Z's but it came down to which dealer would give us the best money for our trades. The Kawi dealer did. And we like the green too....its sweet. When you sit on a green machine...you know you're sitting on something fast...that color gives a feeling like no other.

I realize Suzuki came out with the Z and shared it with Kawi...but that don't mean Suzukis rule. Suzuki came out with the Quadracer in 85...it was king then...then Honda came out with the Fourtrax 250R's half way through 86. Honda ruled the racing market till they stopped making it in 1989. Then when the 400EX came out that ruled the market too. Kawasaki always had the fastest motors in thier Tecates. Suzuki had the market ruling machine for what? One year?

Rincon, I'll keep this short since this obviously isn't a Chevy, Pontiac or GMC forum. I'll quote my original statement "Kinda like how the Chevy Camaro and Pontiac Firebird are identical mechanically, and the Chevy Trucks and GMC trucks are identical mechanically." I never said these vehicles had identical sheet metal, or interior packages, or decals, or anything like that. Mechanically, they are identical. Same engine, drivetrain, chassis, etc. But I don't want to start some silly forum war. Later...
