Default "2004" 5 speeed Vinson ?

Will there be a 04 Vinson Manual? I have asked this question before but I keep getting Different answers. I have contacted several dealers and they all seem to have different opinions. There are still some 03 that I can purchase but I am hesitant because if suzuki discontinues this model it would point in the direction that there is a problem with it. Thanks..

Its a good question that there is no complete answer for.
i would probably not buy an 03 right now just because of the fact that they havent offered it for 04.
something smells rotten.

The frustration continues. The dealer now said that there is no 04 5 speed. I can't believe suzuki would discontinue it after one year. Even if thier is a problem, why wouldn't they upgrade it. The prarie is the only other machine I would consider purchasing but damn that thing is ugly!!! Maybe a auto vinson with a clutch kit. Does anyone have or know what type of performace you gain with a clutch kit and stock size tires?

I've responded to a message like this before! I read a review somewhere (can't find it now) that Suzuki was not making a manual Vinson in 04! If this isn't true then why isn't one showing up on their web site! www.suzukicycles.com: D

Clutch kits are used for oversized tires.
There will be no noticable gain when you have stock size tires.
So I wouldn't waste your cash.

I don't know why you say that about clutch kits. They give the automatics a lot more power and are used on atvs with stock tires. You are right that they are also used to turn larger than stock tires. They are one of the first things you should get if you want to hop up an atv with an automatic transmission.
