That is absolutely the best ATV ever made . That ATV set the course for big bore ATV. With diff lock and 15 speeds .

Suzuki was the FIRST maker of quads. Love to see someone these days ride one for the first time as I have been riding them for 25 years. Just pulled mine out from where it was sitting for the last 5 years because of a back injury. New battery, oil change, and it was running in about 3 minutes... Thanks Sta-bil. Still think that the lite weight and great gearing make them the best machine to handle and have fun without worry.

the issue you're having when trying to start it when it doesn't wanna turn over is easy to fix. ours does it. if you look underneath the seat on the top of the engine. there's a little lever you can flip. its a compression release for the hand pull start. if you flip the lever then try the starter it should work fine. also if you try to use the pull start without flipping the lever. it'll be so hard to pull you'll think the engines locked up. P.S I know this videos 3 years old but you may still have the quad and for others to know too edit: I went back and looked and yours don't have a pull start but mine does so my bad but I'm gonna leave it for people who do have a pull start and electric start on theirs.

Regular ol ppl creating memories for life, Ur kids will remember their mom and dad and all of them having fun and doing it on KZfaq.

First quad my dad ever bought was a 2000 Suzuki king quad 300 and it was a little beast on the trails. Never got stuck and it never let us down. A year later he bought a 89 Kawasaki bayou 300 4x4 so him and I both had a quad for the trails. The bayou 300 was another durable little machine that always got through some rough trails we went on. Just wish you could switch between 2wd and 4wd like the king quad. My dad was nuts and after we got the king quad 300, it was the only quad we had at the time and he made two seats for the back and one on the front and we went riding one day with me my mom my sister and her husband and my dad all on that quad in the yellow dog plains in the upper peninsula 😂😂😂!!! 4 adults and me I think I was 13 at the time. I was too young at the time to realize how ridiculous it was. We have a pretty funny picture of us 5 on it. It’s a gem. We had to get up this steep hill so we threw my mom on the front for more weight then me to get up it 😂😂😂. A story I’ll all remember. My dad got sick with ALS years ago and we live in Detroit but before that we use to keep the quads and an old 78 Yamaha 175 enduro in a storage unit in Marquette and would drive 8 hours up there, stay in a hotel and go out riding all the time. They have now been sitting in the unit untouched for 8 years? I’m finally going to get them this summer and bringing them back to Detroit to tune up and get them ready to ride again so I can take them up north again all the time. My dad gave me all 3 machines before he passed and I can’t wait to ride again. Some of the best times of my life growing up was riding with him up in the upper Peninsula and exploring new trails and riding deep into the middle of no where. He always found his way back to our truck and trailer somehow at the end of the day and it was amazing. Like I said we put those quads to the test on some really rough trails and they always made it through them. Plenty of power to go anywhere. I think they are the perfect squad that balances size and power. Not too big and not too small to get through tight trails and enough power to go anywhere. Cannot wait to finally open that unit storage unit and look at those machines again for the first time in years and to take them home and work on them to get them going again. Not to mention the king quad only has 3000miles on it I believe and is in like new condition still. He bought a couple winches that we never got around to putting on them and they are still new in the boxes in my garage and I’m going to put those on when I bring them home. Looking forward to taking them out for long trips and camping along the way on new adventures. Nothing to me is more fun then riding quads in the upper peninsula and seeing all the beautiful hidden water falls and rivers and the forest. I am now 28 and it’s time to go get them. I wonder if I’ll ever sell that king quad since I have so many memories riding it with my dad. Might upgrade the bayou eventually to a newer quad, but I really liked the semi automatic drives they both have and I’m pretty sure most or all newer utility quads are now all full auto which takes the fun out of it a little bit. In my opinion. Cheers!

I love the old king quads, they’re so much fun on the trails and in the mud

I had a 250 quadrunner when I was young. My father has beaten the crap out of it, then my older brother has beaten the crap out of it, then I have beaten the crap out of it. With it's super low range you can basically haul the moon. If you want to keep the motor for a long time, install a fan in front of it to keep it from overheating and it will last forever.

I've worked on those at my shop. FYI if it doesn't run well after cleaning the carb. There is a fuel filter and a fuel pump at the front left of the side fairing. Not only that but the vacuum lines get clogged up near the t pipe under the gas tank

We love the King Quad ,and we'll make sure to stay tuned for it

I picked up a 1989 Honda 350 Foreman few years ago for a couple hundred dollars...did a few mods and custom winch setup...she's a Beast...

Thx for the vid. I have two 1999 Suzuki King Quads. Both have been sitting in my garage for years. I just dropped them off at the local shop to get them running again. Great memories and many more in the future. E

When you guys have fun, we have fun. Keep up the good work we use those king quads up here in Humboldt county they are tanks

love it! I've been looking for that exact bike for my daughter to learn on! I can't wait to see what you got brewing in your head for it! enjoy!

Ha, just acquired mine today. Can't wait to get it up and running.

Just saved a 300 from going to the metal shredder, got it for free, ol'e boy wasn't a mechanic,(neither am I) but got it home and it looked to good, turned out it was stored for years a cuz it wouldn't run, IT HAD ONLY 325 MILES ON IT, I found a fouled plug, changed it and it runs like a brand new machine.

Great edit! Thanks for sharing!

Bout time needed a four wheeler on the channel one of my favorite ones ole king quad

Can't wait to see the next video on this quad

I love your channel I’ve been a subscriber for 11 years your the best

GJ on the atv. My advice....strip it down, go over everything, it doesn't take long but the worst day is the day your support vehicle breaks down. You have seen I have 7 atv's in the barn. trust me, its worth the time to make that King quad tight and right. When everything else breaks down.....the quad is the ROCK. Hats off to you sir. Keep the faith.

Nice quad! I just picked up the same one a couple weeks back for 500 bucks. Still working out the bugs, but it's a fun rig. I cleaned the carb. What a pain getting that thing back into the bike with everything so tight in there.

i used to have a 250 quad runner and it had the 4x4 or 2x4 selector with high and low plus it had super low with the dif lock and it would go anywhere and better then most of the 350 and 400's of the time. of course back then a 400 foreman was considered a big quad. around the turn of the century me and my buddys were on the mountain every sunday like church. this was a cool video bud

Ive a 93 kingquad and that quad does pretty damn well for having a much smaller carburetor and a pod filter, had it straight up in the air a few times.

Very cool. Enjoyed.

I had an 2001 300 a couple years ago. Slow as fuck but had an unbelievable amount of torque and would go through most everything.

I have a 1983 Honda 200s three wheeler and it's a blast

Hey bud love the videos don’t comment much but I like the change up don’t get me wrong I love the mini bikes and go karts but it is nice to see some four wheelers as well would definitely like to see y’all have fun with this thing out in the mud keep up the great work man god bless

They are fun, good pick up

Stripped a King Quad today for a parts machine. I must say it is a well built vehicle.

Love the quad man.

Becca telling you to get Braxton off the quad sounds like my family telling me to get off the dirt bike I just got!

I've had the same machine for 18 years it's Bulletproof

Love the kingquad

Like the show man

Good addition to your hoard😀👍

I have a 2000 Suzuki king quad 300 4x4 same color as yours!! I love it and once you add good tires it is unstoppable

Those are the best pullers

I have a 2002 Suzuki king quad 300 4x4 and I work on it myself I watch red beards garage to see how to work on it and hes awesome I can work on my own 4wheeler without having to take it to someone else to work on it

My dad has one identical to yours and I have a 280 which is just a little older. These 4 wheelers are awesome. They are slower but will run 55-60 mph down the road and will putt through the river like nothing. Do yourself a favor and check the front diff for the right amount of oil. Mine had like 2 teaspoons of water and no oil. Hopefully yours is fine.

I just did this exact thing last weekend.

Those king quads if you treat them even half good they will last you your whole life 🤘🏼

I like the atv there so fun I used to run my ATV 700 around 65 mph

I had a kawasaki bayou 300 4x4. Very simmilar quad, they are TANKS! I hope you enjoy

Cool video

Beast mode engaged lol

I got a kq 500 with 2in lift on 29.5 otl2. bone stock around 70lbs a tire. pulls good and I'm hard on it. its a 2016 i bought last yr. no issues nothing broke and its a allsome bike. where I live everybody is Honda fanatics. I get mad fun of for a belt but I seen them Honda brake axles with 27in mudlites. but my buddy got a 420 with 4in lift on 30s and it wont keep up. i like Hondas but that zuki is a difference experience for me

Love ur channel

My girl and I just picked up this exact quad a couple months ago. Its old, but its gets out on the mud trails here in Florida lol Ours is used, but it came with a bootleg snorkel that just needs to be cleaned out and sealed better. Got it stuck twice so far. To be fair... it was about 2ft of water, and 3ft of mud under that. I ended up eye level with the seat. I'm 6ft tall btw lol

That 300 is a beast my dad has one

would love to come out with some of my toys but I live too far away in Illinois.. keep up the videos!

Lookin for a quad that is decent speed and can mud and hunt and haul and do yard work like a pro, so I talked to my uncle who owns a ranch and he said to look at the Suzuki 300 kingquad so here I am, it’s a little slow but I’ll take is dude

Once y’all settle in you guys should do a livestream build it would be cool to see

Those are amazing machines. Mine has been through h*** before me and its still going strong. Last year i was able to do lots of riding with it. Might not be as fast as the new machines, but itll go anywhere you need to go. Wish they still made these. Better than the new stuff.

I just acquired a 1996 king quad, the guy was going to trash it so I saved it from the shredder. It turns out, it stopped running for the old guy and he put it in a shed for years, when I got it from storage it has only 325 miles on and it shows. As I got into it all I could find was a fouled plug, changed it plus a few other adjustments and now own a clean, green, running machine. I would like to see any and all upgrades, I plan on lights and a plow and use it for Ice fishing.

Got same one sitting in my girlfriends dads garage and it ran last year and now wont start after putting fresh gas and charging battery and i bet its the carb too.

Had an 96 model, they are called a 300 but if you look on the case they are like 348cc. They have some pretty weird faults but the engine is about bullet proof. The ujoints on the rear axle shafts are weak and expensive. The upper ball joints on the front like to pop out. Ended up fixing the front on ours by removing the factory bolt and drilling a bit larger with the ball joint in place. That formed a groove on the ball joint stud that a bolt would then hold in place. Ended up selling ours because at $300 a side for axles it wasn't worth fixing it when it snapped one every time we tried to use it on the farm. If it woulda been solid rear axle I most likely woulda still owned it. If you plan on towing with it plan on replacing rear axles now. 2wd high mine would run 55mph. We used to run it on the road between fields all the time and it was hardly slow.

they were not. meant to be fast. more of a work quad

That will make a great recovery vehicle. I don't think my 2013 KQ 400 asi 4X4 is half the machine the old ones were, oh sure mine has FI but I got the auto version so hi/lo-N-R, belt drive and a solid rear axle and tops out at 52MPH with my fat hiney on it.Sometimes old school is more cool.

Best snorkel the exhaust to in case it shuts off under water..good show guys and gals...helmet Brax👍#5kaway

My dudes.. One of these days, maybe even sooner... I'm going to come to one of these meets. Hmm... Murfreesboro is only 9 hours away, and Townsend TN is only another like 2.8hr... I do want to run Deals Gap in the turbo car a few times.....

Like if you’ve been around since the Honda Odyssey or longer

I got a 98 King quad 400 cc's identical to the one you got in this video first looks mine didn't run when I got it Would even turn over it does run I knew of before I got it it turned out it was the starter solenoid set of put in a tiny one on it like supposed to be on there I put a Ford solenoid on it and it's been working ever since

The plastics hose for the air box if u use a hair dryer on hi for a few minutes it will soften it up enough to fold it where u need it

I am looking for one ! with the super low, this little thing can pull a lot !

I just got a 2001. It came with the house I just bought. The thing is like new condition with only 551 miles on it.

Just picked one up for 500. Only thing wrong with it is the previous owner used RTV to seal the transmission case instead of buying a new gasket, so it leaks a little oil. Just gotta fix that and I'll have a nice little machine.

Darn wish i could come to the meet

Just bought a king quad 300 a week ago that had been sitting. Motor was seized, but after working with it for a few days and lots of PB blaster and marvel mystery oil, it finally broke lose. Acts like the transfer case might be locked. I can put it in gear while it's running, but will not move. Can't even move it in neutral. Plus it's stuck in 4x4. Not sure if that's the reason it won't move. Lots of work to do, but what can I say for only $500 Edit: will only move in super low range. Low and high range act like they're in a bind. But it does move

We have several ATV 600s here in the Appalachian mountains of Kentucky they are definitely work horses.. there's not too many places on our 102 acres of land these machines can't go!!! They are also handy during deer season hauling a 350 lb deer out of hollows makes it much easier.... y'all should also try out the cforce 600 they are so great!!

Man I wish I lived close to you guys that would be lots of fun to come ride and check out the deuce cart. That's my favorite one. Can't wait for the vid guys!!!!!

Too me one greatest qauds ever made its completely mechanically made.no push button crap no electronics other then basic running and lighting ones.first off they made Suzuki 250 and 300 4x4 both identical except CC size they been around since mid 80s way before any other qauds had fully independent suspension and a locking Differential To lock all 4 wheels in. They were well before their time with these Options.its mechanically controlled levers that switches 2 wheel drive,4 wheel drive and super low gives it 25 shifting options with 3-5 gear shifting selections.One 2 wheel high/low 5 gears each.Two 4 wheel high/low 5 gears each and super 4x4 low 5 gears only and everthing is all mechanically swicthed by the operator.its not a fast bike but in super low it will try to climb up a wall and with good gripped tires can climb at very steep angle as long as the operator can hold the nose down.because of every mechanical in the bike makes it simple to fix.it is a fun bike to ride.

Please keep us posted on the Murfreesboro meet.

I would blow off all the leaves & crap before opening air covers etc. to not risk getting dirt & stuff into the carb & airbox

Subscribed. No ad for the batteries on ur links.

Man i wish I could weld. I would make a go kart similar to his old 670cc yerf dog spiderbox that burnt to a crisp. The engine on my spiderbox has been nothing but trouble.

You will have to teach Braxton about shifting. He is used to having the torque converters on go karts

I have 2 400 4 by 4 Suzuki one a Eiger and one a King quad. Eiger went to King quad but anyway love my old one with a winch and balloon mudders. Other has factory tires 2018 400 has 37 km on it

as a guy who cominly gets stuff like that and fixes it you truly hurt me deep down running it like that on old black oil

Man I wish I would have recorded my Honda atc 185s carb rebuild the engines now on a 200m. But it was like there was an inch of oil and rust in the carb looked like puked up molasses. Took 2 cans of carb cleaner a brush an a pot of boiling water just to get the slide and jets out Let alone the rust and ports so I could fix it.

Carb dip is your friend!

I would definitely come if you werent 12hrs away.

nice I have a Suzuki Eiger 400 4x4

Greg As you are getting out and about with your machines now, have you considered making a Removable second Story / deck on your trailer ? that would enable you to carry more of your machines on one trailer at the same time Just a thought that you may not have considered also maybe a trailer hitch on the Quad

I have that same quad

It'll bring out the potential in your other rigs...make you braver.

I have a 2000 Suzuki king quad with some 27 inch super swampers the things a beast. Are you guys gonna do any aftermarket stuff on it? its been a year lol

10:59 you ever take it off any sweet jumps? Lol

The kingquads from Suzuki was very very hard to kill an them being Simi auto makes them even harder to kill in the woods or in mud!.

I got a '98 Dodge Cummins 3/4 ton foil drive My battery was dead one time on the truck and I was too far away to use battery charger so I towed it to my shop used in my king quad 98 four wheel drive to pull it and it moved it like it was nothing

I had that same size Suzuki King quad dealership running we're saving 5000 up right now to get me a newer model 2016 Suzuki King quad

on ours, we had to put a tractor battery on it because we got tired of the stupid thing dying. never had a problem again other than the huge battery tied with baling wire to the front end. Edit: and don't call the beast slow. she is much quicker in high 4 and high 5 with four-wheel drive on. we top out on the road somewhere around 60mph

Also it sounds geared down. Check and see if it’s in tow mode( lever should be right next to the shifter)

Have an arctic cat 300 4x4 same motor everything except for frame is different but i ended up putting a 34mm carburetor on it thing does 12 o'clock

Sweet let's see it toe some things. And what happened to the zircon

I had a 1994 Kawasaki bayou 400 4×4 that is a lot like a Suzuki King quad a friend at work gave me my Kawasaki bayou

check the pilot screw. I think 2 3/8 turns out. oil capacity 3.8 qts 10w40 motor cycle.

Crotch shot 6:09 I was wondering how long will it stay stock? Snorkel sound like a good start. Maybe just restore it?

One of the nastiest carbs I've ever seen! Make Braxton wear as helmet.

I have same bike same battery old school

Wish i could find one or even the older 250 king quad
