Actually I've mainly have heard just good reviews on the vinson. For the time it had awesome power for its size. Around 35ish horsepower. And for 2002-2007 that was good. It had just about the same has a sportsman 500 H.O. and the sportsman 500 efi at the time. And about the same as the rincon 650. Alot of quads was using cvt at the time and some companys had issues with them at first. Like can am for one. I have a 07 manual shift. They have a sub tranny. And it makes it like a 10 speed. Comes in handy if your running taller tires. I have a 2003 rubicon. And the vinson runs circles around it. The rubicon is my work horse. I plow and work around the house with it. I use the vinson for trail riding. With the power, soft suspension and being able to lock out of 4x4 is nice for those slides around turns in the dirt. The center console is nice too for the time period. Im getting ready to swap all my bulbs out to LED. Which i think will look nice. And im looking for a led light bar for it.
AlexanderTheGreat I got a 05 Vinson 500 for free, brand new condition ran great just needed a battery and a carb clean has lots of power i ride it daily and beat the crap out of it and it runs great 1020 miles on it and I also have a 2017 Polaris sportsman 450ho efi that’s a great 4 wheeler too, got it brand new never had any issue with it and it has a cut my Vinson has a good ol 5 speed and when it’s cold you don’t even need the choke you just tap the stat button and it fires up no issues at all, overall a great 4 wheeler
Hey I’m looking at an 07 that needs some work but has everything there and seems to run good would you recommend buying it it will be a farm/play four wheeler if I buy it

I have two Vinson’s at the house. One parts bike, one mud bike. I really like these bikes. Looking to upgrading the motor when it goes tho.

Yeah. I would get it if the price is right. They are easy to work on. Have good power. And still look good

As you use it your carburetor will mess up that’s the only thing that sucks about Suzuki is their carburetor is made cheap
