I bought a 750 King quad 10 months ago and rode it only out West in the bush, mud, muskeg, the works. I have rode with every brand and I will give my results. My quad is the slowest of all brands 750 ccs and up and I raced a 700 Grizzly with power steering and barely edged it out, the Kawi and the Bombe handed me my a$$ on a platter. It was a different story when we hit the deep holes though. After many weekends with the boys I would have to give the Suzuki 2nd overall. The only machine that seemed to always beat me in the mud was the Bombi, and I attribute it to the raw power go give it such awesome wheelspin. Overall I think it is a great quad with the exception to the rad which plugged up really easy and will be mounted to my rack this year.

I LOVE my King Quad. Its so nimble and has some good power to boot. Not too many KMs on it but I've put it through its paces so far (mud, water, etc) and its holding up great. I put 27" swamp lites on it and right now I'm currently waiting on rims, stupid backorder lol. On the flip side, a good friend of mine had a Brute Force 750, biggest pile of crap I've ever seen/ridden. I'm pretty sure it was in the shop more than it was ridden. Seemed like there was always something wrong with it: burned oil, brakes kept messing up etc etc. After hearing the horror stories it really kept me away from buying a Kawi. Granted, he could have bought a lemon but it still shooed me away from the BF.

I've always Felt there was more to a ATV than pure power to give it a rating.
I Have been out with a Brute force 20 times. 5 of those times the belt screwed up on it.. one time the belt somehow flipped up side down.
the Dif lock system is a joke imho it reminds me of the honda diflock (aka hold the front brake abit).
on the plus side though it does have the Twin aka Power. at the price of fuel consumption its your choice.
They handle like a Skid steer compared to most quads Yes I've rode them / traded quads.
But were comparing the 2.
the 750 Suzuki has over all Good power with lower end torque no not comparable power to the BF but its different the clutch doesn't kick in at the same rpms either. It has plenty of power to go have some fun though if your not racing that is (who races utilitys? )
Diflock = better on the Kingquad
clutching system is more reliable.
the 750 version has yet to prove reliable on the kingquad cuz its new but if the 700 is any indication then it should be a gem.
The over all quality of the suzuki's i dont think has ever been questioned.
so if your looking for
Decent power , good quality , long life of ATV , dependability , with a more matured diflocking system. id say go for a kingquad.
if your looking for something that preforms more like a 2 stroke with highspeed and high rpm engaging clutch a bike that will whip your hair back some, with some dependability issues "belt problems " then the Brute is your atv.(mostly noticed this with larger tires aswell)
Id say just go with the Bomb 800 but i really do not like visco lock how many times I've seen that screw up its mind boggling. But i'm sure they are improving on that visco setup every year. when they do the Bombs are going to be next to impossible to complete with imho.

I own two AtV's One a honda TRX 450 And a 2008 BF 750 efi.
The honda is bullet proof. The only thing I have done to it is the bearings in the front and rear. It has 7800 km and runs like it has 200 km.
The Kawi is a real fun quad. I have about 1000 miles on it and have done nothing but changed the oil. Alot of the problems are driver error on any machine. But I have never had any regrets in my choice.
I would say the best thing to do is go and test drive each and go from there.

I've had a Suzuki since 2003. Had a 03 Vinson, have to admit, I've had numerous quads over the years, all brands, this Vinson was the best overall quad by far. I now have a 09 Kingquad. Very reliable, great ride, easy to handle. The power steering is great. It might not have the bottom end as some of the others, but who cares. It has plenty of power when you need it. I could care less if it's capable of going 120 km hr. All I know, if you want a quad that is very reliable, won't overheat, has a great ride, plenty of power, you can't go wrong with a Suzuki.
Not sure about suzuki reliablitiy, my brothers 06 vinson 500 with less than 2500km on it just had something come apart in the front diff when his 14yr old daughter was puttzing down a dry trail with my cousin and his daughter looking for chickens. She was in 2wd and goin slow when there was a bang and the quad jolted. We found a bolt of some sort sticking out of the housing.
