2006 SUZUKI QUADSPORT Z400

Powering the QuadSport Z400 is a high-performance 398cc liquid-cooled, DOHC, single-cylinder four-stroke
engine. Its bore and stroke measure 90.0mm x 62.6mm. Four valves are actuated by cam lobes riding
directly on bucket tappets. The cylinder head features a narrow 28-degree included valve angle for a
compact, efficient combustion chamber with an 11.2:1 compression ratio. Fuel is fed through 36mm intake
valves, with exhaust leaving through 29mm valves. A dry sump lubrication system contributes to the more
compact engine package.

The aluminum-alloy cylinder is plated with Suzuki's own race-proven nickel phosphorussilicon- carbide
coating, known as SCEM (Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material), for reduced weight and improved
heat transfer, allowing for tighter and more efficient piston-to-cylinder clearance. Additionally, the piston is
forged aluminum-alloy for even more weight savings. A counter-balancer shaft reduces vibration, while an
automatic cam chain tensioner and an electronic CDI ignition simplify maintenance duties.

A manual five-speed transmission (with reverse gear) transmits horsepower to the wheels. A handy knob
on the front left fender releases the reverse interlock to select reverse gear with final drive transmitted
through an O-ring sealed roller chain. Suzuki's own Start-In-Gear System allows the engine to be started
in any gear when the left brake lever is applied.

The QuadSport Z400 starts with a lightweight, rigid, high-tensile-steel-alloy tube frame and sub-frame. An
independent double-wishbone front suspension system provides 215mm (8.5 inches) of travel. Out back,
an aluminum-alloy swingarm utilizes a fully adjustable piggyback reservoir shock with 230mm (9.1 inches)
of wheel travel.

A high-impact skid plate is standard equipment as are durable, serrated-steel footpegs. Wheelbase
measures 1245mm (49 inches) with a full 265mm (10.4 inches) of ground clearance. Rolling stock consists
of aluminum-alloy wheels shod with Dunlop radial tires for maximum traction and performance.
The Z400's T-shaped seat is narrow at the front and flares out over the rear fenders, allowing the rider
to comfortably shift weight back and forth and side to side. Seat height is set at 810mm (31.9 inches)
and smoothly transitions to the bodywork and lightweight 10-liter (2.65-gallon) fuel tank. A multi-reflector
taillight mounted at the rear completes the QuadSport Z400. One look is all it takes to appreciate the QuadSport Z400's sporty, aggressive styling. The Z400 has a
sharply angled nose with stacked dual headlights, twin air intakes and high-mounted, deeply flared front
and rear fenders.

2006 SUZUKI QUADSPORT Z250

The 2006 Suzuki QuadSport Z250 is an ideal recreational all-terrain vehicle for riders of all skill levels.
The Z250 powerplant has a compression ratio of 9.2:1, automatic cam chain tensioner and breathes
through a 29mm Mikuni BSR carburetor. Other vital components include a large airbox, lightweight crankshaft
and an exhaust system tuned for awesome power output with a sporty growl. Power is directed
through a slick-shifting five-speed manual transmission, complete with reverse gear, and an ultra-efficient,
low-maintenance shaft-drive assembly.

The Z250 starts with a sturdy, steel-tube frame - complete with a solid-steel skid plate and a strong front bumper for maximum protection. Front suspension
comprises an independent double-wishbone design using oil-charged coil-over shocks. The result is a whopping
160mm (6.3 inches) of wheel travel, which is adjustable over a range of five spring preload settings per
shock. Rear suspension duties are handled by a lightweight steel swingarm with shaft-drive and a single
piggyback reservoir, gas-charged coil-over shock. Like its front counterpart, the latter produces 170mm (6.7
inches) of wheel travel and offers five clicks of spring preload adjustment.

Tires measure 22 inches at the front and 20 inches at the rear, and are mounted on lightweight aluminum
wheels. Hydraulic disc brakes up front utilize large-diameter rotors for powerful yet consistent stopping power. At the rear, a single cable-actuated drum brake doubles as a parking brake.
There's no denying where the Z250 gets its good looks. The radical front and rear fenders; the dynamic, angled 40-watt halogen headlight; the racy stance; and the RM-inspired graphics all prove that the Z250 is pure Suzuki QuadSport. Indeed, the sharply curved front fenders scream Performance, while the aggressivelooking rear fenders connect with the mudguards to protect the rider from roost and rocks. The T-shaped seat provides a comfortable perch yet narrows at the 2.8-gallon fuel tank to offer riders full range of motion. Additional perks include serrated-steel footpegs for maximum control, a five-liter waterresistant utility box under the seat, 21-watt brake light, 150-watt generator and maintenance-free battery.

2006 SUZUKI QUADSPORT 80

The QuadSport 80 wears aggressive RM-inspired graphics in two stunning color choices and is sized for smaller
riders 16 years and older -- though it's also appropriate for adult-supervised children 12 and older. A twostroke,
forced-air-cooled single-cylinder engine powers the QuadSport 80, in conjunction with availablespeed,
fully automatic transmission that requires no clutching or shifting. Suspension is of the single A-arm
front and single-shock rear variety, and can tough it out over a variety of terrains. Large 19-inch tires give
the ATV an aggressive look, yet a built-in throttle-limiter system keeps every ride under control. Additionally,
the high-mount snorkel-type air intake keeps things dry during water crossings.

2006 SUZUKI QUADSPORT Z50

With the new four-stroke QuadSport Z50, Suzuki caters to children and entry-level riders alike. Parents
seeking an ATV for young riders might check out this new machine. Its features make it perfect
for learning to ride in a fun and safe environment. The LT-Z50 is powered by a compact 49cc, aircooled,
single-cylinder, four-stroke engine with a CVT-type automatic transmission. A built-in throttle-limiter
system regulates engine power output and a recoil interlock and keyed ignition switch offer maximum security
and safety. Parents retain control via the ignition cut-off tether line, which stops engine operation immediately
with a firm tug.

A high-rigidity steel frame combined with a single A-arm front suspension with twin shock
absorbers and single-shock rear suspension deliver a comfortable ride with 51mm of wheel travel. Brakes
consist of a large diameter drum brake for each front wheel and a single rear drum for strong, reliable braking
performance. One-piece seven-inch wheels and tubeless tires keep the QuadSport Z50 rolling. The plush
easy-to-remove seat provides the perfect perch for young riders. Modern styling with full floorboards gives
the QuadSport Z50 a big-quad look, and the bright color schemes and RM-inspired graphics should be popular
with young Suzuki riders.
