I have a question I am mostly a trail rider so when it come to the suspension on the Rincon which is IRS will i have to get cv gaurds for the front and rear. Also I will need a front bumber since it dont look like it has a good one. But other than that I think i am going to get one.

It looks like it should be a pretty good quad, but I have to say that "Rincon" is about the stupidest sounding name I have ever heard of for a quad. I thought Suzuki's names were pretty dumb, but "Rincon"? What is that supposed to mean?

As with any IRS quad you need front and rear CV guards.

thenewfiebullet Rincon is a referance to a very tuff 4X4 trail in Calif. It is 19.5 miles of rocks that will take a built jeep all day to travel.

thenewfiebullet.......the suzuki "vinson" and "eiger" are more stupid sounding names. the new honda looks kinda wierd. i'm tempted to say it is ugly, but not quite.

The name is doing its job. It is getting people to talk about it therefore it will eventually be known in all housholds. I kinda like the looks and I think it will grow on people in time.

When I saw the front end of the Rincon one thought came to my mind. Log hopping. I don't know about you but when I had my foreman my friend and I would go through the woods me on my foreman when I had it and him on his Polaris 425. The foreman was a decent log hopper but there were quite a few times I had to get a nudge from the Polaris to get over the log and the polaris could make it on its own. But I gotta say the Rincon dont look too shabby, I think it'd look better in yellow though.

<< .......the suzuki &quot;vinson&quot; and &quot;eiger&quot; are more stupid sounding names....... >>



Why do Vinson and Eiger sound stupid? Mt. Vinson is the highest mountain in Antarctica. And the Eiger is one of the tallest mountains in Switzerland. They are very tough mountains, and good names for tough vehicles.
Compare that to the Rincon or Rubicon. Both though trails, and also good names for tough vehicles.
I think they are very original and, if you are familer with georgaphy, very fitting names for ATVs.

i didn't say the names didn't fit the quads. they are not the best names to give a quad. they could have thought of better sounding names of other tough mountains or trails.
