Disappointed with KQ- Suzuki In General
Take it from a multi-line dealer parts manager of 10 years.
Suzuki is NOT the only ATV manufacturer to rush with a new model and take their time having replacement parts ready. It's Suzuki, Kawasaki, Yamaha, and even the all caring Honda as well.
It doesn't help you much, but just try not to single Suzuki out as being an @$$ when it comes to having parts ready for a new machine. They all do it and I am the one that feels the brunt of the shouting....although I have nothing to do with it......LOL
The new Brute Force 750 models are a perfect example. They have had several engine failures with the first 900 they sold and yet have nothing but pistons on hand to rebuild them with...........with no piston rings.
We have had to give two new Brute Forces to those two owners that we had with the engine problems.
Kawasaki now has us with two torn down engines sitting in the shop....right in the way...until we get new rings. Go figure that one out!!!

I have to admitt I agree Suzuki should have been better prepared to support the purchasers of their new Bike...
In the meantime I did findout that the Suzuki "Twin Peaks" Winch mount is the same as the one use on the KQ... So if your dealer doesn't have one for the King see if he can find one for the "Twin Peaks"!
Good Luck,
Hibrass
