KQ 450 is the best machine of the 3, however, it weighs just as much as the KQ700. They are pretty pricey too!
I would just pick up an new left-over '07 KQ700 for the same price as a new '08 KQ450.

I would go with the King Quad... I think they are just better overall. Suzuki is part owner of Arctic Cat and some of the technologies are blended into both sides.

King Quad for sure!!! Excellent atv!! Like someone else said though get a cheaper left over King 700 b/c the extra power is well worth it.

I have been battling with the same question for the passed two weeks - they are all great machines and you will be happy with any of them.

BUT - I decided to go with the KQ450 because of the Fuel injection. The Yamaha Carbs work well but they are "OLD Technology" and you will need someone to tune it eventually such people are few and far between.

The world is turning to EFI and the current reliability of EFI is excellent - so KQ450 for me!

OH yes - one more thing... the insurance rates start to climb rapidly after 500cc engine size - the 700 KQ may be nice - but can you afford the insurance?
