Default Will Suzuki see the light for big-bore sport quads?

Just an intersting thought I had after looking at the close up cutaways of the new King Quad DOHC 700cc monster. I would think that Suzuki would see the big-bore market as one they could capitalize on again (ala LT500R). Let's hope that they develop a manual transmission to be mated to the cylinder. Five speed with reverse, electric start, EFI, and good chassis geometry. Hey Suzuki, you've got a customer here, and I'm sure that there would be thousands of others to follow me. At least do something Honda is too afraid to do, and beat Yamaha, Kawasaki, and Bombardier at their own game. What do y'all think?

Never could understand why Honda has sat on that incredible XR650 engine all these years! Seems like the manufacturers R&D always goes into utes first, and sport bikes just seem to be a second thought. But, the market is now turning more sport than ute, so maybe we will get some attention for a change.
