Why dont you guys just come out and say it. The suzuki king quad is a workhorse versatile machine. Its meant for work through the week and play or trail riding on the weekend. The people who buy these are not looking for a race horse. When people throw down their hard earned cash they are not looking for a $15,000 1 year thrill ride, they are looking for a machine they can still drive, use and depend on 20 years down the road.

Japanese companies know the line between reliability and power. Polaris and Can Am have 1000cc big horsepower quads...and stay broke. The engine has enough power to tear up the quad it’s sitting in. Japan seems reluctant to put engines in that are capable of self destructing when abused and damaging their reputation for lasting forever. Old quads lasted 30 years because they weren’t strong enough to tear themselves up. Personally I think it’s a smart move. I’d rather have a reliable bulletproof ATV than the most horsepower. I grew up when a 300 was considered a “ big” quad so if I can’t get it done with 7-800cc I might as well quit

Love KingQuads, just bought a 2020 750Axi, ONLY because a tree fell on my 2009 KingQuad 500. I had 4000 miles and 400Hours on my old 500. Did everything that I asked for it, and reliable as hell.

The only thing I would disagree with in the video is this. The 2019 King Quad 750 SE+ is designed for aggressive trail riding. It is not a sport quad, but in between that and the larger utility quads from Polaris and Can-am. I have driven the Grizzly (old and new) and Renegade 1000. With OEM "sized" radial tires, it performs similar to the Renegade with exception to the acceleration and top speed (and better than the Grizzly overall). If you want to add large mud tires and go swimming maybe the large displacement V-twin atvs are a better choice. Although the King Quads are very reliable and handle mud abuse fine. Watch "Team WMD" ice racing videos if you want to see how hard you can ride the old 2005 version. The 2019 has many significant improvements over the first generation 2005 KQ 700 and good improvements over the more recent KQ 750. $8200 out the door price. It's time to upgrade if you are a fan of the the King Quad's reliability.

The Can-am may lead the pack on the start, but seems to always come back on the end of a rope. What these people don't take into consideration is the fact that when we pay so much for a ATV WE WANT IT TO LAST. If you want a wheeler that will take you there and back, time and time again, you might want a Suzuki !!

I like that it’s not all new. They are just tweaking and making good even better.

I love my 19 king quad 750. I don't need a big bore to have fun. I love the look and ride. I've beat the snot out of it, rolled it, sunk it and it just keeps going

How much horse power do you need? I personally have no desire to rio up the country side and have the machine self destruct I want a reliable machine a work machine. That will last forever

My issue with most ATV's is that you can't beat the hell out of most of them, always something to worry about over certain terrain. This new kingquad seems really durable. I see how hard you road this thing and I appreciate that everyone else at this test track pussyfooted it a bit i thought. Awesome review.

suzuki aint going anywhere they last forever and are priced well

One of the best reviews I have ever seen on anything. Well done

Good video. Just picked up a 2021 750 SE King Quad myself and I am loving it so far. I wanted something to plow with and do everyday yard work while having good power for the occasional weekend tearing it up on the trails, but those 1000cc monsters just seem crazy to me im not trying to get myself killed out there lol. Reliability was my #1 consideration and while I hear the NA brands have come a long ways, I want this thing to last forever if im going to drop $11k on it. Very happy with my purchase so far

The older I get, the less I care about high horsepower. So what they didn't go with a bigger displacement twin motor, much like Honda and Yamaha, you're buying a Suzuki for the dependability. Heck, my father in-laws '92 king quad has never had a tune up, exhaust is rotted out, has questionable suspension, racks are bent, plastics are cracked, seat torn to shreds but you can always count on it to do work and never let you down...and still easily pull a house off it's foundation hahah.

I ride long distances across deserts or mountains and I'm gone for weeks or months at a time in the middle of no where hundreds of miles away from anyone. I carry everything with me to survive and I want a machine that's reliable and gets great gas mileage and will get me home.The KingQuad has been unbelievable. I've had it a couple of years with no problems. No it's not a V-Twin powered machine with so much power because that's not what I need. It's fun to play in the mud and be crazy playing but if you breakdown you better hope your near home. I usually am not. You should have let two ordinary guys test this quad and not a couple of racers because you know they won't like it as well as a racing equipped quad. I am on trails and fire roads and trails I have to go very slow on so I won't flip over. Good review anyway. I love the Suzuki KingQuad 750.

20 yrs from now.....”These little 1000cc quads just won’t get the job done” “these manufacturers have to step up to the standard 2000cc that everyone wants now”

Great review. Knowledgeable, honest, straight forward, etc. I love it. Need more like you guys. Just subbed.

Would love to see a well thought out video between the Grizzly and KQuad. Many people cross shop these two machines and it would be nice to see a MPG, comfort (subjective), top-speed, braking, acceleration, etc.

Why do they test these kingquads like race machines? Why do they whip them on racetracks? Why do they complain about not having a V-Twin with more horsepower? This is not a quad for you if you want to do these things. Wrong quad, plain and simple. This is a workhorse and a comfortable cruiser, period. And it is the king at that. Even the 722cc engine is big for cruising and working. Having a 850cc or 1000cc would be utterly useless. Maybe next time you could test a Yamaha YFZ450 as a farm implement? Your review is well made and still interesting but always wanting more power, more displacement must stop someday. Suzuki doesn't want to play in that extreme performance market, hence not having that renegade/scrambler look.

I appreciate the critical scrutiny, but the complaints regarding power or suspension at Baha speed, comparing to 850 and 1000cc machines seems ridiculous. This is not the point and purpose of this vehicle. Take a look at the comments here.

Loved the honest review. I feel way too many reviews for quads are there to sell the machine. I really appreciate the honesty for this bike.

Great review and I nominate you as the centerfold for the month of May in the 2019 ATV riders calendar🤣

I just got a 2023 king quad 750 SE. I chose it over the can am 850 outlander for its reliability. Yeah, it lacks power, but I'll choose reliability over power every day. The ease of maintenance is crazy how accessible everything is. I'll get through the ruff stuff slower, but not stuck in the woods broke down 15 miles away from the truck, lol. I hope my machine makes 10,000 miles.

I was wondering if steering kick back was reduced and you've helped me find out. Like you said, it's a great atv for the everyday work, but nothing was reinvented here. Great honnest review, thank you very much.

You really tell how it is I love that no bull shit not like some of these guys out there you put out the best content by far keep up the good work and thank you so much

I THINK THIS WAS A BRILLIANT REVIEW OF A QUAD. WE DO A LOT OF QUAD ENDURO RACING AN THIS IS WHAT WE WANT TO SEE TESTED. . . COOL NICK IN THE UK !!!!!!!!!

One correction from the video. The SE+ tires are Carlisle "4 ply" bias tires. They are just acceptable and safe enough for aggressive riding (compared to better radial tires like Bighorns). The old (2005-2007 KQ 700) 2 ply Dunlops were absolutely dangerous (packing peanut) tires that should be thrown away if you ride like the video.

The Suzuki Kingquad 750 and the Yamaha Grizzly 700 are great quads. This review is good to a certain point. You guys are riding and comparing these Utility Quads to racing and sport quads. Of course these do not have the suspension of the racing and sport quads. These suspensions will bottom out if you push them past there limit. The sport racing quads and Utility quads are a totally different quads. The Suzuki 750 is not made to do what you guys do. Get real. I love my utility quads but I also know their limit.

That's how I drive my king quad, no problem yet, 2007 king quad

They are testing this atv as a race quad. Completely opposite of what this was designed to do. It was built for being a reliable workhorse. I don't want a twin. I don't want to ride through deep mud. Lol Gees. Love my `22 750. Suzuki you did a great job IMO.

That second part of the review was the most depressing review I've ever seen. Those two guys should stick to racing and not do reviews.

The best, straight forward review that I have ever watched.

That king quad looks fun to ride !!!!

And FYI. I have a 2009 750 axi. It would run over and brush and went through anything I put it through down here in the Louisiana swamp.

My KQ has the copperhead fuel controller and a clutch kit , and it's plenty fast

We need a King Quad 750 project. Offset wheels(wider stance) + tires for a nice planted 48-49inch wide stance. Elka shocks, clutch mod, tuner + exhaust.

I ride the same trails as you do. My 500 handles it with no problems

These guys sound like they are describing a homicide. I have a Suzuki thats 30 years old and its worth more than I paid for it. In 30 years their Can Am will be in the junk yard.

Awesome review. No fluff at all. Very rare to hear the truth. Bravo.

No complaints here

Your a hell of a rider and make the king quad look like it has plenty of power.

Nice to see Suzuki did some things to improve but if they don't keep the price down they will be hard sellers. Japan quality is the key with these. I'm happy with my 2005 & 2012. If you want a twin cyl. you get more weight and expense and if big sport power is what you want you will pay more up front and in the end for it.

Great review, I agree with you 100%. Love that they improved, but won't go back until the twin is released. Started my channel with the little 450 and made it do things most wouldn't dream of trying. Great quad, and if I could I'd have one as my back up.

Don’t change perfection!! You don’t need a 1000cc machine. Vtwin etc.My king quad is just fine. 2019 500 king quad. Getting a 750 next year

They say changing weights on clutch and a shim fixes some of that laggy low end.

If you're in the market for a Japanese quad and want some power to go along with it, you ain't gonna find it in Red, Blue, or Yellow. It's in Green, and it's called a Brute Force!

Why do people expect every quad to be a race quad? Not everybody wants to tear through the woods at 100mph.

You just listed all the great pros about the atv and it seems like you were drooling over it and THEN you complain that it's not new from the ground up??!! Change for the sake of change?

You made the right choice buying the grizzly . I own an XTR no complaints . I used to own a 2019 king quad 750 traded it because the power steering sucks .

I was with you on this review. Until you got those two guys to review it. This is not a race quad. This is a reliable fun atv that is good for trail rides. And I see this atv pushing big tires on you tube so they don’t know what they are taking about. They are just can am biased.

I am no speed demon racer. This will be the first one I've actually owned. I have an 12 year old daughter and the trails we will be on will be basic. I want reliability and I hear the can am use the shop a lot. I want it to have a little get up and go if I want it, but racing isnt my goal. Now if my daughter wants to race when she is older I can look into it. I think this quad will handle everything I will throw at it. If anyone has one and has any advice let know, I pick it up Tuesday. I can get Yamahas and can ams at the same dealer. I've read this is one of the smoothest rides and that is important to me.

Atvscene.....after doin some research it appears the Kingquad suffers from the same thing as the Kodiak 700. Heavy clutch weights to keep power smooth. Sounds like a change out of the weights really wakes it up.

The 2019 Grizzly is sweet. Yeah it’s not a 1000 but it’s not going to break like all the Polaris’s do! That high beam light isn’t going to work very well with a case in the front. Those shocks look cheap. Some Elka’s or Fox shocks would be nice but will cost you. Needs 14 inch rims and some decent tires like you mentioned.

This is a work machine, not a racing machine. Let’s see some work!

Nice Review, we have two of em and so far love these machines.

5000 Miles on my 2013 king. And I have beaten the absolute piss out of it Does it still get water in cvt exhaust when you go thru a puddle? Stealth snorkel first thing I did to mine Tires and new air filter other than that it’s a tank

I love my king quad. Mine just took a poop but it was my fault. I failed to check oil. It ran low and scared the cylinder the Piston and the cam and cam jernals are toasted. Along with the timing chain guide.

I Have a 2005 King 700 and a 2009 King 750, both are basically the same. The 2019 look exactly the same as my 2009. Same features etc. BUT... I LOVE BOTH OF MY KINGS.

Not everyone want a racing quad! Keep the reliable single cylindre and let it rule in its class for years. Reliability and toughness over speed and high repair bills.

Great quad great review!

Great quality review! First pro level quality review I've seen outside of dirt trax and atv on demand. Outlander Max 570 vs Sportsman Touring 570 shootout please.

BRP's 1000's are like the crossover SUV's of the atv scene (see what i did there? 🙂), with their racing suspension, relatively light weight, wide track, well centralized mass and cutting edge active electronic aids working in tandem with suspension, transmission, engine, steering etc. It's a dohc 4 valve 4 stroke single cylinder with about 10:1 compression.. I think its probably up there with what's physically possible to achieve at this displacement and engine construction, i hope japanese manufacturers attempt to compete with BRP's liter quad twin cylinder engine entries with AWD, race quad suspension, but utilitarian ability.

I beat the absolute snot out of my 2017 kq 750 on the trails and it thanks me for it, and it works hard and it does mud well. Great machine, it will keep up with big bore atvs all day on the trails, the only way they will leave you behind is on an open road and who wants to ride an atv on that?

Lose the garbage stocker tires. The bump steer almost goes completely away.

Soooo basically, same old king quad 😆 At least with the King quad you have the reliability. Not something that is going to leave you in aww, but an overall good reliable machine.

You certainly put that thing through it's paces. That's what a corporate test ride look like.

I'm happy with my 2011 kingquad power steering 750 and not like those rainbows colors of can am that people buy just for the look and no performance in the trail!

Should of just got a racing 4 wheeler if you going to treat it like that. But for people just wanting to do trails and farm work. Some of the best trails I’ve been on is at Brown Mountain OHV trails in Morganton, NC.

This guy is riding it like a racing quad.. it's not a race quad it's a farm work horse designed to last the distance. I like you Americans but sometimes you do talk alot of shit. Over in new Zealand and Australia your American quads are fuked in about 700 hours in our conditions. Polaris.. can-am they might have all the fancy shit going on but trust me they dont last more than a season on our farms. These kingquads are built to last.

Vdi , muffler , and clutching makes this quad bad ass.

Japanese quads are reliable. I'll rather have reliable then new gadgets that can break on the trail in middle of no where. They make them easier to work on as well.Don't change what works.

Thanks for the video. Really looking at a 2019 750 SE Bronze. Local dealer has it OTD for $7800. Test ride it and was impressed. Currently riding a 2007 Arctic Cat 650h1

and the shocks on max preload is almost impossible to bottom out them junts are stiff as shit, they come and second to least preload

These guys are riding them like there race quads lmfao its like there expecting renegade performance out of the king quad ,with the king quad it is what it is im sure its fun and reliable for 10k

Ok week-end warriors keep buying parts every week for your "Big Bores" i'll keep my 2 small reliable machines 450 kodiak and 450 kingquad. Gas and oil that's all they need

Great honest review man I got a krx 1000 few months ago and got ride of my 570 sportsman didn’t think I would miss it but do so here I am on line watching reviews I like Suzuki and Kawasaki reliability but like Polaris power on quads I’m thinking of the brute force or Grizzle but I really like the touring model of Polaris so my wife can ride double with me I never had trouble out my 18 sportsman but I’ve heard horror story’s from others help me make my mind up for what to get and make some more real world honest video’s man

I’d take this over the Yamaha simply because of the shaft drive.

Very good video. I can see you put a lot of work into this. I have to agree with the other comments . The guys testing it like a race Atv is irrelevant . Still interesting to listen to the comparison though.I don't like Carlisle tires either !

Buddy is riding the crap outta that thing

You're asking them to change the whole segment. That's kind of foolish, just ask them to make a 4x4 race machine. Can't turn those big tires? It has how many horse power? Ask for a super 4x4 mud/race quad. That one is supposed to be fast.

Thanks for the nice video! I’m looking at a King Quad or a Grizzly for 2022. Did you do any reviews on the ‘22 Grizzly’s?

I ride the same way on my 08 King Quad. I hope it’s not mushy like most atv’s are now.

Like the video and the quad, considering buying one. Have you reviewed the Polaris 850? Just curious which you prefer. Thanks!

Been watching your reviews and they are great. I know you love you’re grizzly. I’m going to buy a quad for the ranch, hunting there, and trail riding in east Texas where there will be mud holes. Not doing anything crazy in the mud though. My wife will be on the back with me once in a blue moon. Have it narrowed down to the sportsman 850, grizzly and King quad. I’ll never race or ride are hard as you do but my background is dirt bikes and love power; and I’ll need power for the mud. 27” all terrain tires is why I’m thinking I’ll need to turn. Comfort and something that’s not too fatiguing is important. Of my three what would you suggest and why? The grizzly is very appealing; the seat just seems not long enough for 2 people. That being said she would probably only be on with me playing around on the 420 acre ranch so not a deal breaker. Like I said the other day, love the channel!

how quiet are these riding at slow to medium speed? Not wide open.

Is it still a good buy for $10k in 2021 ?

Thank you ! Great video

I bought my 19 3 months ago for the purpose of using a snowblower attachment. Wasn't a big deal to get a set of Mud Lites with rims added in the financing. Now I have 2 sets of tires. I am not out beating the snot out of it when the blower is off it. It has plenty of power for me I can't complain.

You guys arent even testing it in technical all 4 wheel drive slow stuff like in woods and trails. Shitty to test this the way you did. It makes your wonderful experience in racing worthless here. Cmon.

I don't understand the comparison of the 750 to these 1000 CC quads. You might as well review a Honda recon 250 and complain that it's not a 500 And compare it to the 500's. It's A750 compare it to anything else in its class. And I also agree that these 1000 CC quads that are 15 grand I ridiculous and a 700 or 750 is plenty enough. I've actually iwned Honda's most all my life and the forman which is A 475 CC will do everything I need it to do.

Excellent job sir. One thing I really wanted to hear was the oil dipstick access. Another, which I didn’t hear was the pull start. My 07 has it. Does the 2019 have it ?

You definitely rode it harder than the other guys who put these vids out but no one there seemed super impressed with this machine... Underwhelming seems to be the consensus...

the steering problem i noticed when i got it but i changed tires, and its never jerked me again

i just bought a 2016 king quad i have owned a vinson 500, KQ 700 and 750 brute. i was looking to buy a can am 850 i really wanted the power but King Quad won my vote they last for ever and i put 10.000 kilometres on my atvs with no more then brakes pads no other manufacturer can as the maintenance and reliability as a suzuki. oh ya and price my new KQ after tax in canada $11.000 the can am xtr 850 was $17.000. i guess thats way its the king.

looks like a good ride?! maybe suspension too soft!?

Great review thank you. So far it looks like a new Can-Am for me. I have a 2009 Brute force that I bought in 09. I was looking at the Suzuki 750, the Yamaha Grizzly 700, the Polaris 850 sportsmen and the can am 650 or 850 out lander. Just want it for tail riding and hunting and plowing snow in the winter. Its a tough decision. What are your thoughts? Thanks

IT's lacking Gas tank Volume for us Canadians. I did a 127 mile ride and that 17 liter tank is to small!! I just got a 2022...and I'm disappointed. Flat tire at mile 26.. on a chip sealed road at that. uggg. Side wall on factory tires bite! Front wheels tracks are 3 inches narrower then the back.This is a problem for the ass end will sway to and from. Like a 1980's Comareo with the stupid wide rear end. Looks cool thats where it ends. WHEELS Should always be inline. Add in Snow. And this a twitchy bike. I'm pissed.. Gonna spend 2000 to fix the short comings on this bike. I never had the issues on an 07

thanks a lot bro

What FUN 😀👍

Looks pretty solid and worth considering for my first machine. Given its nearly $10,000 MSRP though, how does it rank against a CForce 800XC that looks to offer a lot more for $1500 less money?

Does your king quad clutch is noise? I have a 08 450 king quad but the cvt clutch is noise. It’s run fine but I am not sure if that can be something loose or broken or is normal in this ATVs?
