Talking about Suzuki's run of early king Quad's of the 90's right up to the early 2000's and the pro's and con's of this smaller cc Utility machine.In my mind,one of the best small cc quads ever built.Enjoy!!

I love taking my 2000 300 quad in the mountians, i love to take my time and look at the natural beauty of the mountains, the 300 King is slow but i like the speed in the mountains, I don't like rushing through the mountains when i ride, i think it ruins the riding experience and the relaxing feeling you get when you are in the mountains, great work horse. 😊

I used a friends about 30 years ago and I’m still blown away the places that could go in super low. No trail and just climb upon alders and reverse and climbed again and folded em over and continue through the bush like that. NL Hydro used these when they 1st came on the market and the guys who recently retired had all the models over the years and they all say those 300 ‘s are the best.

Haha, I care about fuel consumption because I don't wanna run out of gas on the trail. As an owner of a 93, I can say she gets about 20mpg in a varied trail situation. Including hills, bogs, groomed, snow, and gravel. Nice video and I agree. Amazing pieces of machinery.

Bought an Ozark which is close to this. I had no idea how good the thing was until I started riding it. Omg with the king quads tires, my baby crawls over anything. I the 5th owner. Crazy. I think it's all original other than tires.
@jamesnaughton15 ай бұрын
Bigger definitely isn't better in a lot of cases. If I need to work the KQ 300 in really boggy, wet places, it's possible to actually lift it out of the muck by hand if it's badly stuck. I wouldn't have a hope with my other bigger quads. Great little machine.

I almost found a decent one a couple months ago for $1000 bucks, couldn't get it in time. But I will agree, those older machines are true work horses. The Kawasaki Bayou 300 is another good one too.

I have a buddy that rides with us on a 1990 Yamaha moto 4. And he keeps up. Or leads sometimes. You can’t go fast in the trails anyway. So I wouldn’t hesitate to ride with someone with an older atv. I like looking around and enjoying the ride. Love the king quads. If you ever want to sell yours let me know thanks.

I wish I could find something like that or a Yamaha Big Bear, they were a 300 or 400 I can't remember now but they had a real transmission(gear driven). They are still running somewhere, unless a kid tore it up. They only sold for around $2,500us. Once you get past a 400 the machine gets so big it might as well be a side by side. Nice if you need all that power and size but to use around the house or hunt you don't need all that.
