Well Doug, I took your advice and bought a Suzuki King Quad. I found a deal on used 450 model in good shape and it drives amazing. I was impressed how well the CVT performed. The 4wd with front diff lock, IRS, separate front/rear hand brakes, steel racks, reliable engine, and full size frame were the key features I was look for. Looking forward to driving this ATV for years to come. The 450 power is adequate and gets the job done. I would prefer just a tad more power, but the KQ 750 was a little out of my price range. I appreciate all your review videos, always very honest and helpful. Keep up the good work!
If this rig was a tank and it just might be, it would be a Russian T-34. Utterly simple and robust all in one. The reliability is legendary on these machines. What more do you want? Yah, Suzuki doesn't change much, nor do they have to. If you want a fun, reliable, and beautiful machine, then this is it. One thing's for sure, this girl won't leave you stranded.
The best ATV in the world.
I've got a 2009 model it's fantastic.
I have a kingquad 500 and maybe mine is a 2016 then because my oil dipstick is easily accessible by your left instep. No headlight in the middle on the handles either. However, smooth as ice, rides great, perfect response in the tranny, quick and agile. Love bilateral breaks. Great overall machine compared to riding a Kawasaki 650 and Polaris 2015 Sportsman. Great overall value and quality.
11,000 km on mine never failed me. Just needing a few things now.. Some bushings and wheel bearings!
The redesigned left cover of de 2015 500 with easy dipstick acces will fit on the older models.
+YAVV92 Ha! I knew the 2016 came with access but did not know it would retrofit to the older models. Yee Haaa!
i have a 2016 kq 750 axi se matt black power steering. added some 26 inch swamp lites and this thing will be anywhere . it fast strong reliable. why change something thats not broken. funny tho how there no lights in the steering column for 2016 but other then that she does it all mud sno work play
I was sure your one nit pick was going to be stock tires! You threw me for a loop with the change up. Never understood the cover over the dip stick, but it does look good.
+sromrell Ooooppps, I forgot to mention the tires as I rode it the whole time with Carlisle ACTs ;-)
+ATVTV The 16s come with Carlisles I believe!
why Suzuki does not make a 2up or side by side is a mystery to me !!!! i have even sent them a email asking them and have not got a reply back!
Suzuki has become a horribly run company in the U.S. They couldn't make cars as good as their motorcycles and then just when they do, they leave the market. I believe that they are trying to focus primarily on motorcycles.....pretty sad from the company that had the first 4 wheeler! They need to hire an enthusiast to run the company. Can you tell I'm irritated?
Hi Doug, Giving you and others the heads up. The 2015 500 King has the oil dipstick access cover and what we King owners are doing from 2005 to present is ordering that part and it fits perfect for any 500, 700 and 750 King Quad. Part# 63342-31GAO-291Tejas Motorsports out of Texas is our OEM Suzuki parts dealer for Nyroc and they have many in stock at a great price and ready to ship the minute you call them. For reviews and pictures here is the link nyrocatv.com/forum.cgi?viewtopic=41645 As well a video on how easy it is to change out. th-cam.com/video/V8eSCRMsn2AN/w-d-xo.htmlyroc
+NYROCATV Great! Thanks.
I think it still holds a good look. I have the black limited 500 with silver racks. Zilla lights on it. looks sharp. Got Primary clutch machined by NYROC ATV and goes anywhere my buddies yami 700 and can am 650 go. When Suzuki finally does update their machines it will be big news. (:
you should do a Honda rincon project. power steering and new tires . that would be awesome
That would be awesome. If we could get one from Honda long term we would do it...
Whats the most miles you've put on a King Quad Doug?
I have an 06 700 with 9300 miles, the only things I've had to fix was a new fuel pump, witch is updated so you can just replace the filter every couple years instead of buying a whole fuel pump and getting the primary clutch machined because it had a bit of a groove worn in it.. Runs drives like new still!
+Morpheen999 Pretty awesome. I know a lot of people that have put a ton of trouble-free miles on their KQs. Me? I've always ridden machine owned by Suzuki so I always have to give them back every few months or so ;-)
+Morpheen999
Check out this website. They offer a filter that goes under the fuel cap to keep dirt out of your tank. It will save your pump. www.profill-australia.com/e-store/HOME.html
If you had to choose between the Brute Force 750, the Grizzly 700, or the King Quad 750, which would you choose? Sorry, Polaris and Can Am are not options for me.
Please held me decide.
Those are my three favorite machines. The BF has an amazing engine with instant power and sounds awesome. The Grizzly is good all around but I personally don't like the shifter and a park position in the tranny. I prefer a parking brake. The King is not the fastest, but it is the smoothest and because it is a bit taller geared it is quieter at cruising speeds on the trail. All are comfortable. All are reliable. And all will need better tires to make them handle and steer better. As we've shown in videos we also prefer to remove the sway bar for more flex.
ATVTV Awesome, thanks for the reply. I'm leaning towards the brute. What would you spend your money on if all three cost about the same?
King Quad. I love the smoothness and it gets considerably better mileage than the BF.
hello... was the steering angle caster changed on the newer models... I'm about to buy a 2016 King quad EPS...
+Jordan Bouchard The caster was changed on the power steering models to a proper 3 1/2 degrees. Non-EPS still run the more wicked 1/2 degree!
+ATVTV thanks...you guys do a great job...the last time I asked another well known ATV TV guys not to mention names...they literally told me to Google it... again thanks...
+Jordan Bouchard Well, I happen to know that answer as it was important to me ;-) We actually had some front arms changed to 3 1/2 degrees caster on a non EPS to try. Harder steering but so much better steering.
would you ever think Suzuki would bring back in the USA the 300 King quad 4x4 I know they are sold in other countries it would be awesome, if they did and put a fuel injection on the 300 King quad and sale them for $5299.00 that would be awesome!!!!
+T Hall While it would be really cool I don't think we'll ever see it.
Got a question for ya. I have a 2015 kingquad 500 and it is up for its first service. What do you recommend exactly for the first service? the dealer says it will be 450$ which includes oil change, valve check , all oils and fluid checks, belt check. I have 500 miles on it and the oil is still perfect and clean!. the engine is perfect, I broke it in perfectly and have no problems or anything. Do you recommend the full service they advise or just the oil and such? I truly value your opinion and reviews. Thanks so much.
+Walter White Definitely change that oil. An initial oil change is very important. Most japanese engines do require a valve adjustment as well after the initial break in. I would also suggest changing the differential fluids but not as critical as the engine. Belts shouldn't need anything done to them for several thousand miles.
You could do all the service but the valve adjustment yourself and save some money.
ATVTV thanks, yes I had all that done thinking that it is the first maintenance and all. I plan on doing the oil changes myself. How many miles or often do you recommend it? I check the oil prior to riding every time. Thanks for the help
+Walter White Good idea. Depending on how you ride, I'd check and clean the air filter every couple rides when it's dusty. I'd probably change the oil every 1000 miles, maybe 500 this next time just to make the changes even numbers ;-) Check the belt around 2500 and maybe just replace it. Probably never have to adjust the valves again ;-)
ATVTV will do! thanks you much.
+ATVTV I rode 8000 kms on my 2011 grizzly and the belt pulled like an ox...
Does suzuki have a foot peg manual shift version of the KQ 750cc like the KQ 400cc? I'm old fashion, I don't want an automatic computerize transmission on my atv.
+b75s Unfortunately not....
+ATVTV Thanks for the quick reply, just subscribe. Either way, I will still end up buying a KQ750 anyway, love Suzuki bikes.
+b75s They have one of the very best CVTs there is - as for as CVTs go ;-)
getting a bunch of knocking noise coming out where the belt is. doesn't affect the way it accelerates or runs . I've taken it apart and the belt looks fine. just can't find the peoblem. dealer is going to kill me on labor. any suggestions?
Gotta be something loose in there. I'd pull it apart. Check the NYROC forum to see if anyone else has had any similar issues.
+ATVTV call me stupid but I can't figure out that Nyroc website in regards to leaving a comment or question. the belt feels tight. I guess I'll just take it apart again. I hear nothing bad til I put the cover back on it.
I think you have to join the forum to be able to comment. I would pull the cover, remove the belt and see if the sheaves are loose, and take a closer look at the belt. Hopefully there's a small strip starting to come off and slapping around in there.
I have a suggestion: don't modify the machine like you are racing or something. Also, buy a new machine after 10 or 20 years. Nothing last 30 years unless you treat it like a classic.
Did it run hot like a brute 750?
+Lee Ludtke Nope.....
Can you do a review on the new 2016 grizzly 450, and 700
+coolster471 Not sure we'll be reviewing any new Yamahas.
+ATVTV ok. thank you for responding to all my questions. I appreciate it
+atvtv is there any major differences between the 2014 and 2015 model?
+Justin N None that you will feel.....
ATVTV Ok, thanks, i love my kingquad, i've had many other atv's and this one is the best with no problems yet.
+Justin N If you already have a KQ there's no reason to update.
i put 200 miles in a week on vacation on my 750 brute force
+starv49 We put on 85 miles just the other day!
whats the best all around atv for 2015 in your opinion?
+LuvTheSnapper Suzuki King Quad, Kawasaki Brute Force and Yamaha Grizzly.
+ATVTV , Thanks for all of your reviews. I bought the Suzuki Kingquad 500 this past August due to your information and reviews. Very happy with my purchase thank you much.
+Walter White Awesome to hear!
+Walter White I bought a 750 4 years ago due to his advice too and I'm glad I did .. You just can't put your finger on why the Kings are so good on the trails they just have it.. Enjoy!
Agreed. I have 560 miles or so on mine and it feels just broken in. Just a solid machine. Thank you much Mike.
What kind of mirrors are those?
+jeff s I got them off of eBay. They are mirrors for a Honda CT 110.
Hey Doug do those mirrors mount in the factory holes on the handle bars?
+Mike McCabe Yes. There are 8mm and 10mm and I can't remember which the KQ takes ;-(
The price for this thing is insane compared to the competitors models. I love these engines and the ride, but a brute force is a better value.
it has nothing to do with the introduction of the kingquad.
What a dopey looking machine.....
I know it's a good (not great) quad but it's in desperate need of a redesign. Besides the 6 or so people who buy these every year, does anyone else actually think they look good? I Put the KQ in the same Class as the prairie 650/700 and the original sportsman in terms of looks
+Jason Stone Always like to know peoples idea of a Great ATV. So what say you?
why do people have to let everyone know you just stopped to pickup someone else trash? Frustrating!
