Hey Man I really enjoy the 400 fsi you sold me!! It’s been getting me caught up on the property, can’t wait to get a plow and plow some snow this winter. Thanks Ben!!!
i just got an 09 KQ400fs sunday i like it more everytime i ride it and when ya put it in low range 4wd it crawls down steep like hills and goes like a tank
I firmly believe the kingquad, 400 is the best ATV in his class. It has been super reliable for me and has been a literally unstoppable. I’ve literally had it on double black diamonds in at Windrock with two people on it and it just pulls really good as a matter fact the stock tires are super great too. Too underrated! 11:18
Besides Fuel inj, this is basically identical to my 2003 Suzuki Eiger. The Eiger is a hell of a machine. I plow with it and it goes through almost anything. I say almost because the last snowstorm of 13" of heavy wet snow showed its limits.
Great machine I ended up with a 24 Kodiak 450 brand new for 6250. I liked the ride and stance a lot better than the king quad but it was a beautiful machine.
I have a 2015 kq 400 asi.with 109 hours, and 200 miles. Hard starts. Dealer says it needs a top end rebuild. Is this possible? All I did with it was plow snow on my 1 acre property
Yes and No lol Depends on one's definition of skid plate. Yes, they do technically come with a poly (plastic) underbelly skid plate. They do NOT come with a steel or aluminum skid plate, unfortunately.
@@DonkeyKong2222 hello there! 100 Miles is correct, according to the Suzuki handbook for this particular machine. A 1,000 mile service interval for this machine would be far too long.
@@benattwiggcycles Wow, i guess with its small displacement its understandable. We usually go riding and put that much on in a full day, if not more. I guess the machine is aimed towards working and not ling distance trail riding. Either way, great machine.
Looking to buy my 1st atv for hunting…toss up between the king quad 400, the outlander 450 and the kodiak 450. What would be the best? All about the same price point
I’d be lying to you if I said I knew anything about the Can Am 450. I do wonder why it’s so much cheaper than the Kodiak or the King Quad but I cannot provide an educated answer for the Can Am. The Kodiak and King Quad however are both amazing machines. The biggest notable difference between those machines is the fact that the Kodiak offers independent suspension, and power steering. The King Quad is a straight axle and does not offer power steering. They just started adding diff lock to the Kodiak models as well. However, the Kodiak are going to put your closer to the $7500 and up price point. King Quads start out $6,900 roughly. I’ll be honest, the KQ and the Kodiak you can’t go wrong with. However if you’re trail riding, for the $500-700 more, the Kodiak is going to offer the rider a much better experience.
@@benattwiggcycles thanks for the feedback! It will basically be for very light trail riding but mostly dragging deer out of the woods, hauling bait and towing a disc when I plant my food plots for deer hunting..I’ll do some more research before I decide, thanks again
@@jeremyjames249 You’re certainly welcome!!! Happy to help! Yeah the Kodiak or King Quad would definitely do the job. Kodiak would be nice since it’s independent suspension but the solid axle on the king quad makes for better pulling. Either way you’ll be making a great choice!
You've probably already made your purchase but the 450 kodiak is great. Has great towing capability (same as a grizzly 700) and is very stable. Good on fuel too.
Growing up in the 5 speed era, I simply have not been able to adapt to CVTs. I know they have gotten better than those horrible 90s Polaris models but to me, CVTs always sound like they are lugging or slipping. Foot shift for me.
Suzuki and Yamaha have pretty good cvt set ups. The drive belt it always tight. There is an internal centrifugal clutch that operates the cut system. Better response at low speeds and much better engine braking. Still a manual is the way to go.
The absolute best review of the zuke 400 on UA-cam. Ty man. I'm seriously considering buying it now. No frills is what I want.
Got one of those in camo, I love it

Hey brother!!! That’s awesome! I’m so glad to hear that! That 400 will be fun in the snow too, hopefully we get some this year!

Was thinking about a Brute Force 300, but for an extra grand you get a lot more with the Suzuki.
Good review. You showed everything. Appreciate it.
Thank you so much!!!
Great walk around. Just picked one up. Epic beard.

Thank you for an excellent review 👍🏼💯...I'm definitely considering buying this Suzuki model down here in Houston based off your review! 🙌
Wow thank you so much! I appreciate you checking out the video!

These bikes have always been good, always had them on the farm works well going up steep hills in NZ
where i can find a starter for a lt400fsi

Adjust your valves
@@fitzfarm8694👆
How much gas does it hold?
Does it really have a Full Skid Plate, as advertized in the Ads?

got the silver color way it is amazing
So on this king quad you put in high gear for normal riding. I'm a newbie on atv.
Correct any ATV can be operated at normal speeds in High range. I pretty much only use low range for work purposes or rock crawling.
@@benattwiggcycles thank you so much
@@o.i.c.uvanish9169 You're quite welcome!
I have one exactly like that, do you know the oil change it needs if you do I really appreciate it
Hey there! Sorry for the late reply. Suzuki's intervals on these is every 100 miles.
@@benattwiggcycles hopefully you meant 1000 miles....100 miles sounds way too soon

@@DonkeyKong2222 it’s first 100 miles on break in, you don’t have to change every 100 miles.

@@jameshogg601 I actually found a 2014 Honda rancher foot shift with 116 hours and 500 miles with a plow for $4k so I jumped on it
How are these for trail riding?
Solid on trails. The solid rear axel handles well. Zero issues.
Is it available in the color camouflage?
It is indeed!!
@@benattwiggcycles Do you have any camouflage in stock?
@@braydenlowe2025 Unfortunately right now we do not :(

Cable operated 4x4? That's different. How reliable is that?
No issues at all! Easy to use.
It will put last electronic actuated 4 wheel drive 9 times out of 10.

Thank you .

Unfortunately I don’t know how other countries are processing orders and such.
Is it a 4x4
