what are oyu talking about!!!!! the older ones were even uglier than the new ones. king quads have never been the text book definintion of beauty. i think they look better now than they did 4 years ago. at least now they look like a work machine not a scince project. :-)

i think by connecting the front racks with the bumper they also made it look meaner. when i look at my machine i always think of that chevy comercial from about 5 years ago with the hoof clipper. he had his one ton chevy with powder coat tube steel all the way around the truck because the bulls kept charging his truck.

i don't know about bulls but if a raccoon runs out in front of me he is goin' down!!!!!!

I have to agree! I used to own a 95 king quad, and I think the older models look better than the current ones!

Probably Suzuki got tired of yearly upgrades of 'bold,new,graphics' and went to bold,new,plastic. BTW, I think the new looks better but I like the old storage box location.

'94 King Quad - Titan 489
'96 TRX 90

No offense, but who really cares what the KQ looks like, My KQ will go anywhere, no matter what it looks like...

Long Live the King

Probaly to generate new interest. They can now call it the "new King Quad" and people will go into the showroom and check them out, possibly leading to a sale.
