Default Z250 Does 74mph!!!!!

Dude, that isnt funny. I was almost thinking it really would go 74mph. I'm sitting in school and was about ready to jump out of my seat and run and call my dad to take me to the dealer right now! I'm going later as soon as I get out of school anyway. Hopefully by the time I get there it won't already be sold. They only have one in stock. And if I do get mine it will be going 85mph...behind my Chevy.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

Hey, I finally got my Z250. It's sweet. I haven't had much of a chance to try it out because its raining, but from the little time I have had on it, its FAST. The dealer said it can go 60 and it feels it. I'll let everybody what I think of it once I get more seat time on it.

SuzukiZ250Kid,

Congratulations, I think you are going to like it. I took my Wife's out and buzzed it up and down the street. For a 250, it's got some pep to it, even with a big guy like me on it.

Have Fun, be Safe. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Just a quick update. We went out riding today, my wife was on her Z250, and my Nephew was on the Ozark. Needless to say, they ended up racing. If you want to know if the Z has more get up and go, the answer is Yes. She whooped up on him 2 times in a row, by about 4 or 5 quad lengths.

Early impressions are that it is going to be a good little quad. Yes it does pull wheelies with little effort.

why is the drive shaft from the motor to the diff exposed? I always thought they were covered in a case? and how is the rear shock on that thing? it looks kinda weak? other that that thumbs up!!!

The Drive Shaft has a Boot on each end, and is fairly protected by the Cross member. It is the same on the Ozark.

The rear shock is a Resevoir Shock. It's not an Elka or anything, but it seems to work OK. Remember, this Quad only weighs 366 lbs Dry, and probably only runs around 385 lbs. Wet. So we aren't talking about a heavy machine here.

Once we get a little more seat time on it, I will be giving a more detailed report, complete with all of the Pros and Cons.
