Default 150 lbs enough for DS650?

the reason i want a fourwheeler is because of my buddies KFX700....ive always have dirtbikes...as u can see the enduro 400 now a 500 two stroke..then i got the yz80 then my buddie dave got the kfx 700..and when i rode that i was like damn i wanna fourwheeler, then i instantly fell in love...but now i want a quad that can dust that kfx700 and can be good on trails...and when i saw the ds650 and it said "fastest production quad out" i was like damn screw the raptor im getting that, so i thought i would get ur guys opinions

You definitely want to consider the Suzuki-Kawasaki-Arctic Cat 400. They are all the same bike with different plastic. I like the AC because you can swap out the fenders with different looking replacements. I rode with a guy on one that you couldn't keep up with either. I ride a stock DS and I had trouble beating him in short drag races. He dusted me on the trails.

Good price on those bikes too. Just shop around.

The 400's are really nice. I rode both before I bought my Raptor. Wish I would have got the 400 instead. Very smooth bikes!!

I weighted 150lb when I started riding my ds I'm now 165lb and only 5'6", I ride it good enought to take 1st for the year riding MX open C class with over 70 entries for the year! and I was the only one on a ds.
