I noticed this in the original zuki pics and these. The front tires look basically like a set of holeshot mx tires. Every bike I've ever seen these tires on the angle of the tread has been leaning forward, not backward. So is suzuki off its rocker or is every mx bike I've ever seen wrong?

I think its an incredible looking machine, once you take the headlight out. That blue frame is sharp looking. I don't see why everybody complains about the width for trail riding. A lot of XC racers put +1 a-arms on their quad anyway. That brings the width, generally, up to 48-49 inches. The Suzuki comes 49 stock, so its right in the ball park. Switch out those 18' rears for some 20', and you have the baddestall around quad.

XC racers do not put +1 a-arms on. 48-49" is crazy for racing XC. Most have theres set up to be at 46-47" wide at the most.

Where is that measurement taken?

Mark my words, this will be the first time in atv history that you will see mass production of "negative" width a-arms and the first time anyting but a drag axle will be marketed on how much SHORTER it is than oem.

I run +1 Long travel Housers an my GNCC Z400 and it works out just fine. Most of the pros are running +1/2 or +1.
