The Scramblers and the Trailblazers have great suspension.

um not really compared to the rest of the high performance quads.
the best stock suspension would probably be the yfz 450
the pred and z400 also have good suspension

I agree with YFZRacer, the YFZ currently has the best 'stock' suspension. The Predator is awesome when you add the Fox Rezzies to the front, really helps out a lot. I consider the rezzies 'stock' because they are make for the shocks that come on the Predator. The YFZ you can dial in preload, compression and also rebound. With the Predator you have preload and compression. One thing that I like the Predator over the YFZ is the fact of zero bump steer. If you look at a YFZ, the front tires look like this: / \ while sitting in it's extended form. From what I was told, after setting up the front suspension on it to the rider weight, with a rider on it, they sit more straight.

Cannondale moto and blaze
GasGas 450 and 300
YFZ450

All the above have fully adjustable front and rear shocks

Cannondale speed and Cannibal
Polaris Predator

Have rebuilable or can be upgraded fronts.

After that I would say the DS650. (it weight however makes it a poor jumper compared to the others).

I'd say out of all the listed quads the best suspension ones would be the cannondale and GasGas ones.
Close second would be a tie with the YFZ450 and the Predator.
