Zooki love thread....

[No.3]

Good thread. Have been looking at some Zuks for the Mrs to replace her on farm quad with. Warm, keeps things dry, cheaper parts and most probably the same price up front!

Anything to be aware of re 2nd and 3rd generation Suzukis??

I started 4x4 life with the venerable 530cc 2 stroke Suzuki, and that taught you an awful lot pretty quickly about what a capable machine Suzuki's can be.

While it's not Escud related, can you get hold of one of the little zook 4x4 farm trucks? They aren't road legal as no ABS or airbags which means they can't meet minimum crash star ratings now - but I've been really impressed with them cost vs ability, and added bonus you can get the parts at Supercheap and Repco. Way cheaper than ATV parts pricing, I've been quite shocked at what the dealers think are fair prices for basic service parts. The farm trucks whatever Suzuki calls them now are more economical, comfortable, quieter and just as much ability in terms of going places.
