Anyone who has one of these bikes can leave info here good and bad welcome thinking of buying one also what problems to look for

 

I have a 06 700KQ, and love it, it has all the power anyone needs. For it's size it's eazy on gas. The only two thing I had problems with is the stock air filters are junk, they let dirt in the motor and it cast me $1200.00,but if you change to a gaaod after market foam filter from day 1 you'll be ok. The other thing is KQ's are knowen for drainning the battery when you aren't useing theme. That just takes going to Wal-Mart ang picking up a $20.00 battery tender and have it on all the time you are not riding it. Other that Ihave it had any other problems with it "KNOCK ON WOOD" as long as you take care of it. Rebel700

 

My dad and i have a 2008 kingquad 400 bought 1 month ago brand new and its amazing. Great machine all the bells and whistles whether its for work or play. If you have the money try to go with the kingquad 450 model then ull get fuel injection, diff lock, and independent suspension. On the other hand if you have even more money then that then you can get the kingquad 500 with power steering. Another 1000 bucks over the price of the kingquad 500 and u have a kingquad 750 with everything the kingquad 500 has but with more power.Anyways back to the point, any kingquad model is a great machine probably the best atv on the market. Go to www.powersportsnetwork.com to read atv reviews, out of all makes suzuki is rated highest with yamaha battling close behind. Hope this helped

 

Forgot to mention that the filters are fine, just make sure they are no areas around the filter that dirt could get in. CLean it occasionally with an air compressor and blow from the inside out. If your going to riding in lots of sand or dust then i would reccomend a k&n filter for that.

 

The only real negative I've had is the battery drain due to the ECU. That was easily corrected by replacing it with a VDI high performance ECU. I have also changed the clutch spring and weights, put on more aggressive tires, added front and rear bumpers, and switched to synthetic for all fluids. Never had a problem with the air filter, just keep the bottom oiled to ensure a tight seal. King Quad 700

 

I have a 2007 Kingquad 700 and i love it. it has lots of power. i put in a UNI air filter and also added a Super Trapp Mudslinger exhaust. i gained more power and throttle response. i also added heated grips, suzuki front and rear bumpers, koplin handguards(helps with heated grips), and i have the 25" mudlite xl tires. i am goin to change to 26" next time due to the deep ruts where i ride. It is a really good machine. i use it here on the farm to drag trees, pull hay wagons and to cut firewood. The turning radius is also very tight. I went riding with my buddy who has a 06 honda rincon 680, and he would have to wiggle around to get through tight spots where i could snake right through. I also put on a homemade 2" receiver hitch on the back. this allows for easy towing of trailers with short tongues. the stock hitch sits in too far. well hope this helps you out
