1. Better tires. Sidewalls are way too soft making handling scary at speed.
2. Improved racks. Current racks are too small.
3. Better storage. The opening on the front fender storage is too small making it difficult to get items in/out. The rear storage box is almost worthless.
4. Firmer suspension. Shocks could use one or two more clicks to a firmer setting. Especially for towing to reduce squat. May not be needed as much with improved tires, though.

It's very comfortable and I'm very happy with everthing else. I've been very hard on it and it operates flawlessly!

again, the squirlly handleing is by far the most important, you know its bad when racers get them for free, and then return them, because of this. this issue could kill someone

I would like a manual type KingQuad as well. Ask them if it is coming.

THE most critical issue I had with my KQ was the absolute miserable engine performance. There's no excuse for how pitifully those things perform.

I wish they would show up at my dealer. I'd like to ask them a few questions and give them a few opinions. Like everyone is saying the steering needs to be adressed. It caused me to do a face first roll down a hill once, and almost a second time when the bars were going to be jerked from my hands the tie rod bent looking like a boomerang. The tire was at a 90 degree angle to the quad which stopped it dead in it's tracks throwing me over the front. The there isn't any power down low either. Kids on tricycles could take this thing off the line.lol So ya, 1. Steering issues 2. tie rod issues 3. poor low end power 4. C.V. boots don't seem to stay on very well either. (Anyne else have this problem??)

Ask them when the 450 is coming out. Just thought I'd ask.
