I keep hearing you guys talk about the New King Quad. Anybody got the inside scoop on this? What class will it be in, more of a utility or sport or combo?

Thanks

 

Everthing I have read puts it in more of a utility catagory, than a sport utility, Most IRS equiped bikes do not have the handleing needed to be considered very sporty, there is not alot of fact out about this bike. The only thing for sure is it will be a single in the 700 to 750 cc range and have EFI and IRS. Kawi has a bike in the rumor mill that sounds like the same thing, likely a cloan do out a few months after the suki.

If it has a stiff IRS setup like the YAMMY grizz it might be sporty but who knows till they come out and mix it up with the other big utes.

 

My dealer (kawa) said that suzuki is comming out with a 700cc EFI single with IRS this summer. Kawasaki is bumping their v-twin 700 to a 750cc EFI this next fall with two choices, either IRS or straight axial. He said that the two bikes will be nothing alike as far as trading between kawa and suzuki. Each one will be different from the other and souly made by it's manufracture. The 700twin peeks came out so suzuki could have a big bore quad while they were in the planning stages to do their own. Personally, they are probably doing it correctly and letting the other mfg's come out first. Then they can see what works and what doesn't and apply it to their quad. It sounds like kawa and suzuki will be the big dogs on campus. It will be fun.

 

It has been connfirmed, that it will have IRS, a locker, EFI, and be a 700cc single. The only other unknown is if it going to be a manual or auto. I'm hoping manual, however both would be nice like the vinson.
