    I'm sure someone has probably already mentioned this, But I didn't feel like reading all the comments. Fuel injection vehicles don't have chokes, their fast idles. same as putting your thumb on the throttle a little as your cranking it over, not recommended and some do not even start once the CPU senses that there's a change in throttle position by the TPS sensor, so its not a choke its a fast idle and don't use it while cranking it over, only after it starts should you raise the idle to ensure a quick warm up. I enjoyed the video. Thumbs up.

    I had all 3 KingQuads. The 500 definitely is a better match up. Better hp & torque numbers. Has better top end speed, too, at 64mph. Will wheelie on demand. Sealed wet brake, & will start on demand. Kingquad belt will last life of quad if taken care. Great 4x4 system & excellent ride quality. Great vid tho.

      The 400fsi is a rocket ship till it tops out a 56mph. The asi I haven't owned but they aren't far behind the fsi in acceleration. Top speed is the same at 56mph.

    Something wrong with that Suzuki. Mine starts first time ever time no matter what the temp is. And that's not a choke being fuel injected. It's an idle speed lever lol

      Probably nothing wrong with the Suzook. There are 3 spark plugs available and he probably needs to get the right one or adjust the valves which is a one beer job or two at most! That or he doesn't know how to use the lever correctly. He is a Honda fan boy and later on in life he will realize the Suzook was great for what it is....

    i got the kingqyad 750 with the bumper package and i got to say its alot nicer than my rancher 420s bumper, the ranchers bends so easy. honda is the most reliable only had to do oil changes and differential fluids, same for my kingquad but ive had the rancher for 6 years and my kingquad isnt a year old yet so time will tell but so far there both amazing

      update the kingquad shits on everything, doesnt bog in thick thick mud like honda it powers threw, then doesnt weigh 1000lbs like a can ham or polaris and can crawl in swamps like a honda, plus its just as reliable or better just bc my electric shift honda gets stuck in gear bc the computer doesnt know what gear its in and shows a dash so i have to rock it until it finally shifts.

      It’s rather obvious with high mileage with something somewhere needs to get fixed. But the only things that have broken or caused problems is from things that were done to them. Like mine I tore a cv boot twice with a stick. And I got a stick jammed up inside the engine in a deep hole. Tore a hose off the rad. Or B-I-L rolled his and it needed a few things fixed. Neither one has blown a motor diff or axle or had any issues that wasn’t rider error.

      Usually the Suzook will never start when it needs a valve adjustment which only happens at 16000 miles plus. It's most likely he didn't use the "choke" or enrichment toggle correctly.

    • @anthonyg6221

      It's most likely hard miles and lack of care. Did you see how he revved them up instantly after starting? Especially the Honda? Yea that probably doesn't break anything but that can't be good for long term reliability And probably explains why the Suzuki is burning oil when cold.

The 420 rancher had 3 rear differentials replaced. It was slow as the sunrise. Suzuki is far easier to work on than a honda. This kid doesn't know wtf he is doing.
