I love my 700 king quad. It is a 05. I havent had any problems out of it. I kept it stock untill about a month ago. I am now running 28" triclaws that I purchase for $100.
It performs great. a little loss of low end but I can get that back. We actually have a ride coming up june 7. I plan on taking lots of pics.

If I was going to buy one now I would go with the 750 King Quad.

For the hell I put everything through, a Honda is the only thing that would last with me.


Looking at buying a used 06 Honda Forman 500 Rubicon....

The king quads are nice, but if I got another one soon, it would be another Honda. Just a brand loyalty thing I think.

Nick,
I didnt see anyone mention baby quads (50cc versions)


I wont buy another Polaris. Ive had my fair share of problems but I cant say Ive been easy on it. I probably could own 6 more in my lifetime and never have an ounce of trouble but you never know.

If I wanted fast Id probably buy a 450yzf (or whatever letters)

the next thing I buy will probably be a side by side.

I know some guys that really put their quads thru it. His Honda has been in the shop more than he has rode it. It has had problems with the head and jug. The quality of the metal used has drasticaly decreased. Rumor has it that their engine parts are now made in Mexico.
