I was stoked to hear that former pro champ Doug Gust would be riding a Suzuki this year, and even more stoked to hear that he won. Then I seen pictures of it and it has Honda plastic on it! What's up with that? It looks just like a Honda 250R. Oh well, I guess Tim Farr's YZ426 powered quad has Honda plastic on it as well, I just wish they would throw some different plastic on these quads.

its most likely because the frame he has the engine is is made to fit 250r plastic. after he won with he said that he wants to get some yellow and blue plastic to show its a suzuki.

All the aftermarket frame companies basicaly copy the honda 250r geaometry except there frames are stronger. Thats the reason all of these conversion quads have Honda style plastic.

All I said was that you were right because it is basically a 250R frame, I guess I didn't quite understand what juggalo said

Doug Gust has been racing with yellow plastic since the third round of the GNC series. You can see a pic of it at http://www.quadracer.com/gustzuke.jpg.
