Suzuki four wheeler opinions?

What is everyone’s opinion on Suzuki four wheelers long term durability? Considering looking at them since it appears you can get more features for less $$ than the other Japanese brands. Didn’t know what folk’s real world experience has been. I’m specifically looking at a 500axi.

Thanks

I have a 2005 Vinson 500 that I have been happy with. The only thing I have done to it is rebuild the carb after letting it sit up for a year.

I know Vinson’s and King quads are good rides. All of the major brands are pretty reliable now.

I have a '99 model Suzuki 250 Quad Runner that I bought new in 2000. I haven't had any issues with it other than normal maintenance. I recently bought a Honda Foreman 500. I already wish I had bought another Suzuki instead.

I’ve had an ozark 250 for over ten years. Still in good shape.

Thanks for the info guys. So far, sounds pretty good

Go ahead and get the 750axi w power steering. I have a 2011. I have put on skid plates, winch, bear claw HTRs, drop baskets, led pods, etc. Great Machine!! No issues. I ride mine HARD!!!

Thx BigBore

I had a 1996 king quad that was the most durable atv I ever owned, even better than my older foreman! My nephew has a king quad about 6 years old and it has been a total waste ever since he put an exhaust kit on it. I believe if left stock they are great but when you start modifying them they get unreliable. I imagine you could spend the cash and make them work right but if you mod any of it be prepared to go all the way. FYI I also had a jet ski that was suzuki powered and it was great, one CDI replacement in 20 years.

Buy a honda and be proud. I will never own a suzuki. One of the biggest pieces of junk you can buy. They suck...are yall serious?

And suzuki parts cost more and way hard to find. I learned that the hard way years ago. All my buddies tellin me suzuki sucked. I shoukd have listened to them. I wont buy anything ever again unless its a honda period

At one time I had a 03 rancher and an 04 Suzuki Eiger in my basement. Now I only have the Eiger. It’s the best four wheeler I’ve had and I’ve also had a 96 fourtrax 300. Wouldn’t hesitate to own another Suzuki if I needed another atv. Don’t fall for the Honda hype.

Have an '05 Eiger.......bulletproof!
