I am glad they made a smaller Bike with IRS...I love Suzuki..but darn-it...calling a 450 a King Quad  takes away from the King Quad Meaning  ...Yamaha did it With the Grizzly...Kawasaki did it with the Prairie.

doesnt make much since to me. i heard it was coming out and I was hoping it would be more of an eiger with irs. This bike uses the same frame as the 700 but just has smaller engine. dimensions are identical. the stupid part is the 450 is 4lbs heavier.

It seems it'll have the same engine as the Bear Cat 454, which means it should already have a good load of mods available. I think it'd be a cool quad and deffinately interesting, I don't much like the headlight pod being gone, but they have to give something in looks to make the 450 look less powerful and cool. Another interesting vehicle coming out is the Diesel Cat 700 Twin, not sure if it's EFI or not. Should have some monstrous torque though.
