Suzuki does not make the 500 Vinson any longer but the last one they did build still had a Straight axle only.

Here is a old 500 shoot out comparison with a Vinson in it ,it does not do to badly. http://www.powersportsnetwork.com/en...ew.asp?code=85

King Quad as it has IRS. The Vinson was the hold out with the solid rear axle. I have friends who ride both and they like the KQ ride better.

The Vinson has a solid axle which is hands down the best for powersliding through turns, as well as having a better carrying platform for heavier loads. It rides very well, but there is a noticeable difference in how smoothly the two different systems handle bumps (it took owning an IRS to convince me the IRS is smoother).

Unless your wife is one wild woman, she will probably prefer the smoother IRS
