Last weekend I put on over a 100 miles on my KQ and am absolutely pleased at the performance. The machine was so comfortable, powerful and great on gas. At the end of the day I was feeling like I haven't even riden a mile. The independant suspension is magnificant! I let other people ride it who own Prairie's and they fell in love with it. I have the updated ECM but have not had any reverse problems as of yet. If it goes out I know Suzuki will fix it. This is by far the funnest quad I have ever ridden. If you haven't been to Moab, I suggest you make the trip. Great riding trails everywhere.

 

funky5kq is correct on both accounts.

1). The Kingquad is an impressive machine, and once the negativity surrounding the reverse problem subsides, I think it will dominate utility ATV sales. I worried when I first got my KQ, but now that there's a warranty, if it goes, oh well. My friend has a 04 Prairie 700 and we traded quads for a few miles. He says it's going to be his next quad, and he regrets not knowing about the King during the time of his purchase.

2). Moab is a riding destination every ATV enthusiast should visit. The views are incredible, and even after seven days of riding you will not grow tired. It's a giant playground for ATV's, and a nice change of pace for those that usually ride in forested areas. There's red rock and sand everywhere, and trails for every level of rider.

Has anyone ridden the Red Canyon area on the north side of Bryce Canyon? It's one place I'd like to check out when I go back to UT. Might also check out the San Rafael Swell, too.
