Nice! Like they say, if it ain't a cat, its a dog, lol.

I don't think you'll be bending the pegs on that! Look at the way the nerfs are constructed.... And the pegs tie into it.

Those Holeshot HDs out back are crazy aggresive. Its a really clean wheeler though. The only things I need to do right away are get rid of that ridiculous grab bar, re-attach the rear fender mounts, tip up the bars, glue the grips, and re-attach the piece of plastic under the gas cap.

You can be your bottom dollar that I'll be mounting those nerfbars to the frame up where the stock heal pockets bolted on! There's even some threaded holes for me. I'm actually surprised they didn't come like that.

Holeshots are great for dirt and hardpack.

Not sure I follow about the nerfs. heal pockets?

Its literally a Z-400. The only things that are different are the plastics, seat, and headlight. Otherwise yes, Suzuki made this ATV. So you know its good!!!

Suzuki sold the Z-400 to Kawasaki and Arctic Cat until 06 or 07. AC changed up the plastics and charged and extra $100-$200 bucks, Kawasaki just offered and exact replica of the Z in green or orange. Kawi also added some weird little black headlight shroud too that was essentially useless.

The stock DVX had plastic heal pockets that the nerfs replace. The stock ones bolted up higher on the frame, these ones don't for some reason.

The black plastic pieces in this pic:



Here's some specs on it:

Arctic Cat 2006 DVX 400 TS

372 lb dry weight isn't bad for a liquid cooled motor!

So, suzuki makes chevrolets, kawasakis, and arctic cats.... They have their hand in everything don't they.
