As you probably noticed I put the question on both forums. I currently ride an 03 Rancher 4x4 bone stock. I mainly ride trails and dirt roads and cruise the dunes.
Last weekend while at the dunes I looked around to see what most people road. I only saw a few KQ's around but I sure think the 700 with the EFI will get up and go. I also watch closely ATeleVision and Doug Myer thinks very highly of the KQ. It is his personal bike (4x4).
I can get into the Rincon about 800 less that's what I'm lookin at. I've read of problems with both and just wanted some input from others.
That is one nice machine you have, I checked out all the pics. You must have some $$ in that ride.
I'm also looking at resell in a couple years hoping that honda will get on the side x side bandwagon and maybe suzuki will do something different with there side x side.
I'm really wanting one of those but they are to much $ for me right now and the rhino has some bad problems that I've been reading about.
I'm not really looking to do any mods just want it so I can go most anywhere, anytime.
Thanks for the input.

Batman,
Tough choice for sure. Like you I was in the market for a new 600-700cc class 4x4 this year. I actually purchased a new left over Black 05 Rincon from my local dealer. When it arrived I was stunned at the appearance of the plastic and refused delivery. I pondered long and hard over my next move and test rode every 500-800cc class quad out there including the Brute Force, Outlander, Rincon, Rubicon, Grizzly, Artic Cat, Polaris and King Quad. Based on power, ride quality, features, and price I chose the King Quad. I felt the Honda would also be a good choice but Icould not justify the extra $800 cost considering its lack of a low range. Either machine should provide you with great service. Best of luck with your decision.

He is referring to the pretty well known prob. w/ the stock air filters on the King. Break down, spend $20 on a Uni and you're fine! When ALL is said and done the Rincon has ONLY 2 advantages over the King: 1. A little more comfy ride 2. " MAYBE " a little more reliable, maybe. Plus, w/ the King, you have a LOW range and Diff lock should you need them. Most people don't need the Diff, but it's there if you do. And, the King is CHEAPER everywhere I've seen or heard of. Either are great bikes though! Good luck!!!
