The KingQuad 500AXi Power Steering is not just a new ATV, it’s a KingQuad ATV.
Suzuki, the inventor of the 4-wheel ATV, has created the world’s best sports-utility quad with bold styling plus more capability and reliability than ever before. The legacy of the iconic KingQuad remains fresh and exciting, and is ready for you to join its history. The KingQuad 500AXi Power Steering helps tackle challenging terrain with the capabilities that only a KingQuad possesses.
Features may include:
Engine
The powerful, 493cc, SOHC, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, four-stroke engine is tuned to produce a wide powerband with strong top-end power.
Advanced Suzuki Fuel Injection improves throttle response and fuel efficiency while delivering power consistently across the full rev-range and improves engine starting in all conditions.
The compact four-valve cylinder head has large intake valves and straight intake ports for superb cylinder charging efficiency. Screw and nut valve lash adjusters simplify maintenance.
Transmission
The Quadmatic™ CVT-type automatic transmission provides versatility and convenience with a fender-mounted gate-type shifter for high/low range selection. Its advanced engine-braking system minimizes free-wheeling with the throttle off to help reduce speed when riding downhill.
Handlebar-mounted push-button controls permit easy selection between 2WD, 4WD, and differential-lock 4WD. An override button on the left handlebar can be used to override the normal speed limiter when getting out of mud.
Chassis
Independent double A-arm front suspension (6.7 inches of wheel travel) and the fully independent, A-arm/I-beam rear suspension (7.7 inches of wheel travel) use four large diameter, gas-charged shock absorbers with five-way spring preload adjustment.
The sealed, multi-plate rear brake system’s foot brake lever ratio helps provide consistent performance. The rear brake’s clutch-type design is highly durable, has reduced unsprung weight, and minimal maintenance requirements.
Electrical
The multi-function instrument panel has excellent appearance and visibility and provides service reminders based on running time or mileage. The instrumentation includes LCD readouts for the speedometer, odometer, twin trip meter, hour meter, clock, fuel level, driving range, and drive mode. There are LED indicators for high, low, neutral, reverse, 2WD/4WD, and differential-locked 4WD and LED cautions for fuel injection and engine temperature.
High-output, three-phase charging system feeds an 18-amp maintenance-free battery for abundant power for easy starting and accessory use. A sealed 12V accessory outlet is standard.
Body & Styling
Available in Flame Red, Terra Green, or Desert Beige, the bold, angular bodywork features high-clearance fenders that offer great protection for the rider. Refined panels simplify maintenance needs, such as oil level checks and fuel and air filter service.
The rugged front and rear steel-tube cargo racks have wrinkle paint finish for durability and scratch resistance.
Polyethylene skid plates provide protection with minimal resistance over rocks and rough terrain. Durable plastic guards protect the front and rear half shafts.
