I've got 150 miles on my kinq quad now. I continue to move the spring setting's up. I've got both set on 4 know, it seems to handle better the higher i go. I'm going to try it on 5 on the next ride. Have any other king quad riders noticed this. I ride alot of rocky, and this time of year snowy and icy trails, and it really handles those conditions great. I was also wondering what everybody thought about the paper air filter, the only experience i've had is with my eigers wet type. It seems to me that the wet type is the way to go. In the dry season out here, the dust is unbelivable. I'm not sure what to make of the tires yet, although i've already had one flat. They seem to do the job, but will be interesting to try a different tire. I haven't noticed the hesitation thing, mine will wheely with a slight tug in high. Moving the spring settings up got rid of most of the squat, and really changed , for the better the handling. Overall i couldn't be happier. Got to love the King!

 

I have mine on 3 but with the mud lite 6 plys it is a much stiffer ride. I also ride the same kind of stuff you do here in so. Oregon. I can't wait to get my king to the beach and try it in the sand I know it will not be as good as my old banshee or 250 R but I didn't buy this quad for that I wanted an all around 4x4 and am very happy with the King.
