If you guys want to see the machines before I make a video with them check out my Instagram: 2_vintage_

The white thing in the toolbox is for insulating on a an electric fence, he probably used it to ride and fix his fence rows

Must be a great feeling to be able to tell people whenever you sell something that there is no issues with whatever they buy. Everything you do is documented and on camera. This is exactly why I watch your channel. Thanks again for your time today and enjoy your weekend.

I've had two of these, and currently the 89' is still going after much use abuse on a cattle ranch- with normal maintenance they'll go forever! So I loved seeing this one on the page!

Can you do a shop tour of all of your current machines. Your garage must be packed! Keep up the great work, I love these videos!

"Hey Vin, we got Zip-Ties. Let's party". Hilarious 😂😅 What a steal at 600 bucks!

Holy Potatoes that was the first 4 wheeler I ever rode. We still have 3 of them sitting in my dad's shed. I remember when I was 7 yrs old and went to ride one day and started that bad boy up and put her in reverse to back out of the garage and that unit stuck wide open in reverse what a ride that was

This was by far, the best Vinny episode I've seen. I could not keep my eyes of him. What a joy to watch. (I'm going back for doubles ;-)) Oh... and cool quad revival also ;-) ;-) ;-) Thanks :-)

I watch several channels that work on small engines and one thing they all share in common is the troubleshooting carb issues like flooding. I’ve often thought it’d be a great idea to mock up a small hanging tank with fuel or liquid and connect a fuel line to the carb when it’s out of the machine before tear down and after cleaning. This would tell you a lot without having to install and remove the carb in the event your troubleshooting didn’t pan out. You’d find out it’s still leaking, for example, without the headache of having to remove it again.

I have one that my neighbor now uses. It's not in as good as condition as yours. My son had it on an old railroad bed trail and said some horses came by and he stopped to let they by and one got spooked and while trying to get by sat on the front fender area and cracked it. So he says?? They are a beast. I like that they sat close to the ground and weren't tippy. If you got into a bad situation, you could put it into low range, lock in the differential then put it into reverse and back your self out of just about any situation. If I can remember correctly they had something like 21 different gears including reverse. I cut a piece of plywood and secured it over the rear rack so my golden retriever could ride with me. After that she rode with me all the time. The only issue I had was since they sat so low, they bottomed out in the snow real fast and then you were done. Nice catch on your 250 and enjoy it as I'm sure you and your dog will.

Highly underrated four wheelers (early 2000s Suzuki Eigers are great too). Our family atv was a QuadRunner 250 (2wd) and we put it through hell but it just would not quit. They don’t make ‘em like they used to!

my grandfather had the same 4wheeler only it was 2wd. i still have it but i dont use it much as it was his, and i try and keep it just how he had it. these things are indestructible though he worked it to the bone up at the lake. its cool to see this quad on the channel. bring back lots of good memories.

You should collab with Mustie! Love this content. Long live carburetors!

I always wanted one of those since the first time I seen one. It’s all the shifters on the tank that made me want one. I have a burst force 750 which really isn’t in the same class but I would still like one of those. Some of the small Machines are really fun to ride via Timberwolf’s or bayous

I love those ATVs I had a 96 King quad 300 it was a beast in low range and diff lock. That series of Suzuki quad runners were years ahead the competition.

Your dog really is living his best life!

You are my favorite ATV/Motorcycle mechanic. The way you take us through your whole process... I learn so much. When I was a kid, that Quad Runner was my dream ATV! I lusted over the brochure constantly lol.

New to watching your channel and love the content. Just picked up a 05 Honda Rancher that’s very clean and was well cared for. Makes me wish I kept my early 2000’s 400 EX when I see what they are going for now. Would love to see you do a video tutorial on the main items to check and look for when buying a 4 wheeler used especially an older one. I would like to get something for my son sometime then later and everything I see that would fit him doesn’t run and they all "in my need a carb cleaning” to be perfect per the ad’s.

these tow great with the creeper gear and diff lock great little workin mule.thanks for your hard work.

She sounds pretty healthy. Thanks Joe! Looks like a blast to ride.

Those white things in the rear trunk are electric fence insulators. I see Vin left you with the gravy on this job. Thorough job as always to insure a good outcome. So just an air cleaner filter element and battery cover. Vin had loads of piss and vinegar once the job was complete. Good boy

Beautiful bike! I have a quad runner 250 1987, almost identical. It has a factory hour meter on it , 10 original hours! My girlfriends grandfather bought it new and it just sat in barn most it's life. Great bikes , great vid! Love the pup ♥️

This is what I have for a 4-wheeler. It was the first ATV my father-in-law bought and when he went to a bigger machine he gave it to me and my wife. It was pretty worn out when we got it with a leaky carb, slipping clutch, and tires that went flat all the time. I was thinking of getting a Honda a couple years ago but decided to just sink some money into the Suzuki instead. I went through the carb, got some new tires, and the clutch fix was just a little adjustment on the side of the transmission. I'm really a Honda guy but you can't beat the transmission on the Suzuki. You have three ranges, you can shift it in and out of four wheel drive, and it has the differential lock option. The reverse is a little clunky to use but at least it has reverse. I use it for cleaning fence lines, cutting fire wood, and just scouting around the property. We have some hilly land so it is nice to put it in four wheel drive, low range and just put-put around the hills.

Had 2 of those in the mid 90s. Very solid machines. Had that 250 and i believe a 300 or 350.👌. have fun, wish I'd have kept them. Way more power than you think and with the gear range selection I'm front of you it's easy to get your power to your wheels. Great find, getting to be rare now, get one in from time to time, love working on them still.

Finally in my wheelhouse bud! I fixed up like 13 of these now! My favorite vintage quad

Vinny's a rockstar !!!

I have a 1995 King Quad with close to 5,000 mile. They are a beast. You got a deal!

I just got a king quad 300! pretty much same bike but with bigger displacement. Awesome machines

I have the same exact machine I bought a couple yrs ago and let me tell you the inlet tube is hard as hell to get on. so carb cleanings are far and few . (was hoping you showed how you do it) I tried to get in touch with you to see if you wanted to give it a once over for but was unsuccessful :( keep up the great content you do great work!!

Good luck finding parts that and the 300 lte are obsolete now, just finished one, took a month. Needed a stator, rectifier, basically everything to run. Ran like new when i finished her. Old farmer had for 12 years and got it at an estate auction.any questions holler atme, always happy to help.

Inspiring workmanship and clear instructions combined perfectly with concise photography. Thanks for sharing - you are an excellent craftsman.

I dont even own a quad or a bike. But i love mechanics. I get lost watching your videos for hours! Keep up the good work!!!

My dad had that exact model for years, great running beast. Lot fun in the woods, lot of power for 250. Enjoy, check the 3 15 amp fuses on solenoid. Usually ones burned up wont get enough power to run.

One of the best 4x4s ever. We have 2 and a parts machine. Absolute work horses.

The one we did had fuel tank under right side rear fender, 5 gallons. Like those with tank up top. My dad had 2 of those quads like yours, super reliable, fun to ride, great elk hunting mountain quads. Great vid Bro!!!

I paid $550 for one just like that, with a plow. The guy said the electrical system needed to be replaced. Got it home, pulled the battery cover off, and found he only the ground wire was attached. Bought. New battery, drained and replaced the gas by oil, and rode it for 9 years without any issues.

A lift table would be an excellent edition to your garage!

Man your dog running around like that while you're riding had me nervous as hell lol.

I got one of these for free and it was in excellent condition no cracks. Owner said it needed alot of work and I did was rebuild the carb and cleaned the fuel pump and it fired right no problem and it runs great

Vinnie loves to chase the giant orange mouse. Run Vinnie Run 👍

They are smooth running, add winch, and she's a monster. Loved the soft squishy seats.

I used to have a 1987 that looked very similar to this. I really like this model of quad. They are truly work horses.

I had a 95 but Not 4x4 Great fun and reliable..the reverse u can slap forward going backwards n do a nice reverse 180 lol.

glad I watched your video as you are the ONLY bloke who made reference to the idle mixture screw, which I was wondering WhereTF it was.,,,,,but nobody and I mean nobody spoke of it. So a big thanks from the land of Oz. Oh and the reference to compression was a bonus - I think Im down on compression as it wont pull.

@2vintage you may already know, but didn't mention it when changing the oil, there is an internal element type oil filter just to the left of the site glass on the right side of the engine. It has a round cover with three screws holding it on. Easiest to change with the right rear tire removed. Suzuki Oil Filter P/N 16510-24501

I bought one sitting in a garage since 2001 paid $250 for it cleaned out the tank and carburetor replaced the petcock and air filter fired right up 321 miles

This was a major score! I was surprised with the very first Suzuki QuadSport when they were first released and it was absolutely!

Bro where are you keeping all these things and how do you get something new almost every day.. posting more videos than 90 per-cent of other other KZfaqrs good for you you're killing!!

I bought one last fall and tucked it away for spring. Needs a tune up. Only 540 miles on it.

The blue version of this beast of an atv was the one I had growing up. So many great memories.

Check Vinnie's ears. He might have an infection 1:25

Nice find! I have two of the King Quad 300’s and like them a lot. But they both need some attention at the moment.

Great information. Good to see hope and bring these from the weak or dead back to life. You are gifted, with insight and willingness.

Don’t forget the broken cv boot. Great buy.

☕Ah, the smell of oil and gas in the morning. Always a learning moment. Vinny asked, 🐶"When do I get to ride?"

Love those old Suzukis. I have a 2000 and a 2001 250 4x4. Can't stop em.

What a find! I’m a little jealous.

I don't know how you can work on carbs with gloves on?!

Nice little suzuki! I'd take Vinnie to the vet. He might have an ear infection.

It's crazy but I could smell that oil burning from here. I have been bringing back to life a few of these machines lately. So far a Suzuki GS 500 and a Kawasaki Mojave 250. I have a 79 Goldwing and a 81 Silverwing waiting in line. I have worked on autos as a hobby and when necessary but these smaller vehicles are a lot easier.

veryone needs a friend like you joe!! i dont know you but you sure seem genuine.. love all your advise and videos... learned quite a bit from you. thank you sir

Hard to beat a Zuke, picked up a 2019 500 kq with 58 miles on it, tons of fun

It makes me anxious every time he runs something in his garage with the door closed😂

That old Suzuki, has good fire!! That one like that I had in here needed bout everything to get running electrical wise.

10 minute fix and a couple thousand in profit for the flip. Knowledge is king

Speaking of Suzuki can’t wait to see the rm dirt bike the $1500 one come together. Love the channel.

Excellent machines. Very cool for sure. Quick fix and great job, Joe. I like the clutchless transmissions.

Watched 2vintage for years now love the content 🤘🏼

Yet again “ Ol Joey clam chowder” with another deal

A lot of oil residue around the top of the engine, wondered if it was leaking somewhere - might explain low oil level.

pretty funny watching Vinny chase you your seem to be lucky on finding these things nice job !!

Always a good day when joe postes

i wish i could find someone in washington state like you. You'd have my business in a heartbeat

Best atv ever made. I still have my 1988Suzuki lt 4wd and sold my 1989 king quad 300 I wish I never did but I like my king quad better then my newer atv

That was deja doo doo!..lol..Venny was rubbing his ears,they was probably itching him,they may need cleaning or hair plucked from the ear canals ..Love the videos!

And u get the best deals. Jealous little bit. Ur contint is very helpful for us atv owners and bikers. Thank u

Man how do you find so many good projects!?

You and that dog are a good team. Great video.

Purdy cool seeing Vinnie out there running with you!

One of the best atvs ever I have a 300 king quad and they don't make them like that!

Battery in front, nice. That 300 i was repairing was wedged in back behind air cleaner..

That jump was like an old suzuki ad in dirtwheels

Reminds me when I was a little guy at my grandparents house my grampa had one just like it he got me a little honda 50 to match I followed him around for hours then went around there house till dinner time did that every weekend for about 10 year's learned alot from him even being young when he passed might have to find myself one now 😀

I have the Ozark but lust after this bike. I'll own 1, one day. Found on Facebook for 900$in brand new condition but the carb is not oem n it won't start. I'm nervous as hell to grab it

Have always really like the look of the dash and 4wd controls on these bikes.

You should call Vinnie “Quad Runner” since he’s always running along side your quads. I love these old Suzuki work horses

You forgot to replace the rubber boot on the front axle.

it's fun to see Vinnie run after you

I have 3 of these bikes one king quad and 2 quadrunners love them most reliable ones I've ever road

The vinster wants to go for a ride with you bro. Put him on your lap and take him for a cruise 😉

Very cool. Great project, find the problem, quick fix. Joe tested Vinny approved.

No oil filter change?

I have the king quad 300 things a tank and been sunk so many times now I just change the oil and she's going strong now like 8 years

Your great at finding these deal. You should do a video on how you do it. I keep missing deals since they are few and far between in NY. Love the channel.

omg Vinny! running along side you LOL!! love that dog

That little Vinny he's so cute, I never seen his little white beard in your other videos,he's your little four on the floor😊

I've got a 2000 King Quad 300, this one's decendant. To make it more interesting I have a 2003 Vinson 500 that I named "Vinny" before you got your dog. lol.

Looked like one of the air box lid screws was sitting on top of the air box between the tabs?

That's my favorite quad I had two of them I used to call them the tank because he'll pretty much go anywhere and if they get stuck you can pick them up out of the hole

Must be nice to get these deals . I would be happy to have a cheap 4x4 quad. Being disabled it would make my life easier
