The Quad I'd Like To See

[KoolKwad400]

With Kawasaki selling the KFX 700, that sparked me to think about a quad I'd like to see Suzuki (sister company) produce. From what I've read, the KFX 700 is a mean trail quad, but has some longevity problems with the belt drive clutch system.
What if........
Suzuki decided to transplant the 650 cc V-Twin out of the SV650/V-Strom 650 streetbikes into a quad chassis?
Good low end power, 6 gears, fairly lightweight, compact, and fuel efficient, not to mention the nasty V-Twin rumble.
Could it be done? I think so, and with around 70 h.p. on tap in stock form, the bike would really rip....

Suzuki.....if you build it, they will come.......

My brother inlaw has a 99 sv650s and we had my 300ex next to it thinking about how awsome it would be to put that motor in the 300. That would just be scarry having a ATV with a 12000 rpm reline and 70 hp

Why do you need 70HP for trails?

You don't.........
But isn't that the point????:D

Everyone knows that even a 300EX has all the reasonable performance that a normal person can use, unless you are a well seasoned and talented rider, I know my LT-Z400 has all the power I can possible use, all 28 h.p. :muscle:, but there will always be a draw for the biggest and baddest. How many 200MPH Hayabusas has Suzuki sold????? Very popular bike, but the speeds it puts up are sort of a moot point, if you know what I mean.

Just a thought.....
