Hi everyone,
I just purchased my first quad. I went with the Suzuki Eiger Auto Camo 400 4x4. Mostly bought it for work around the house but also have many trails in the area to have a little fun.

Congrats on the Eiger. It's one tuff machine. I have friends that have them and they are very pleased. BTW welcome.

Thanks for the welcome. I got a chance this weekend to break her in and it is a very nice quad for the size.

A 400 is more than enough for riding around on the trails. They just start lacking a little when you put bigger tires on em and start slinging the mud and don't have a low range like my old Kodiak 400. That was the main reason I got rid of it and moved up to the Polaris.
Good to hear that you like your bike though.

Welcome to the site.

I've seen Eigers do things that big bores would strain doing... they are very very tough.

Ride Safe,

Chuck

Wish I'd done more research before I bought my first ATV. Woulda saved me some money.

Hey guys/gals I did some ridin yesterday in the mud. I must say it is alot different than dry ground. I rolled her. Nothing major. Just started to tip so I jumped off. I had to push it back over and it started right back up. Is there any harm if the quad goes upside down?
I love this thing!

If it goes upside down in water..you may have a BIG problem. Otherwise I don't think so. Hope you had a helmet on.

Im lucky enough to go out my garage and have woods for miles. Im starting to make my own trails right in my backyard. Where I live now is one of the best places in the pittsburgh area for trails. Miles of trails all around my house. BTW the area is on Fawn twp if there are any other Steel City riders around.
