Suzuki Quadsport 230cc Top Speed

[@bobdown6055]

I have 3 LT-F230GEF here in Australia that I use on my farm,for a 30year old bike they are hard to beat for a all round fun work horses. Great video

[@stkyfngrszmooth]

Dude, this is the quad I've been looking for. This one - the 1985 and very first year of the Suzuki QuadSport 230 - was my first sport quad and my all-time favorite. I used to get all bundled up at midnight in New England in the middle of the winter and hit the snowmobile trails that went right through our property. We'd ride for hours only stopping to warm up our hands by putting them over the exhaust pipe. If you happen to still have it and want to sell it please get back to me. Thanks. 👍🏻

[@user-kr2ki9mm5u]

My first was a white 1987... I have been looking for another

[@chainraiderdiscgolf]

First glance, that is an 85 Quadsport. I wanted one so badly as an 11 year old.

[@lucidmoss4634]

Great video. You deserve a bigger audience.

[@SneakyZeke]

Thank you, hopefully I’ll have one someday

[@jermainephillips5179]

Dirty oil can make neutral hard to find when it's warmed up.

[@SneakyZeke]

Good to know, I can’t remember if that quad had fresh oil in it or not, but I’ll check in the future

[@brianspinniken7589]

Thats the dumbest thing I have ever heard. The linkage is wore out people.

[@coreyrides9650]

@@brianspinniken7589 no it's not the linkage i got brand new linkage in mine and it does the same thing it gets hard to find neutral after about 15 hours on the oil

[@christopherwalker6056]

That was super dangerous riding in between those trees so close at that speed. Hit one bump wrong and you'd slam into one of those trees. Be careful.

[@mikealexander7601]

Sounds like that clutch is slipping a little

[@squatchpnw2331]

45mph is about all they got. wish i still had my quad sport too. but now i ride a DRZ400s dual sport.

[@SneakyZeke]

I just got a Drz400E, they’re a lot of fun

[@reddirtrich2272]

I have the same one and it's a pain in the ass to get into neutral

[@SneakyZeke]

I know right? I wonder if it has to do with the weird shifter

[@reddirtrich2272]

SneakyZeke idk on mine when I try to shift at higher rpm it won't shift we think someone who had it before me tried to AT swap it and it didn't work out so he changed it backed to to manual with out a clutch but we don't know for shore it might be the left lever that is the clutch but I can't use it because it is completely locked up and can't pull back its solidly stuck in place or it could just be the shifter it self because it is a bit loose and I always have to slow down and use the brake to shift but I will hopefully get it looked at this week and I also have LT125 with no clutch but stock it has no clutch so that's normal but I'm not sure with the 230 it really pisses me off

[@Propaniac-ru5yf]

Bad oil and or clutch plates dude

[@reddirtrich2272]

don't read my name I think it was just because I was wearing crocs when I rode because I had to wash it but when I where my boots it shifts just fine but mine does not have a clutch it is lined up but yet it still shifts really easy I’m getting that fixed soon

[@444Vide0s]

Bro I thought it was only my bike

[@WhiteManXRP]

great all around bike

[@samarmas5082]

Mine does 55 with me and my little boy on it. It doesn't sound stock but Idk.

[@ubroberts5541]

Old video but you need a set of holeshots on the rear. It’s much more stable like mine.

[@captainchaos7706]

You gotta change your undies every now and then

[@coreyrides9650]

When you are quick shifting you don't use it

[@grippingdirt5510]

He is

[@grippingdirt5510]

There is a Hot start

[@captainchaos7706]

@chaps it can be done, but it can accelerate wear.

[@everydayliving1975]

I have one of those and they are tuff four wheelers. I have had it under water and it ran under water.

[@mupito12]

that was dope for a 230

[@brendaminer5017]

Mine did 55 mph completely maxed out. And it was heavily modified for it.

[@SneakyZeke]

I don’t know what’s been done to it, I’m probably the 10th owner

[@parkersposts]

My dad had a 230 I don't remember but I think it was a quad sport he was the 2nd owner (we still have it) and he said he could hit 60mph so we are going to get it running again for me because I grew out of my 110 and will give it to my little sister

[@Propaniac-ru5yf]

@@parkersposts hey I hope that 230 works out for you, they're fun machines and if you take care of them they're pretty durable

[@parkersposts]

@@Propaniac-ru5yf thanks but my dad parked it because the chain broke the case so water got in there and rusted it out and would be to much money and time to replace so we decided to leave it for now and maybe put s predator 212 in it

[@masonab5631]

Only 46 I tested mine and it goes 54

[@deborahchesser7375]

Good little bike

[@SneakyZeke]

Indeed

[@drewdew6874]

My 230e does 50 stock

[@smitr123]

Looks like mach 1................oh, only 46mph 🤣

[@REDLINERUNNER]

THIS WAS INSANE!!! AWESOME SHIT BRO!!! :3

[@SneakyZeke]

Thank ya

[@patrickjaegers3110]

Sounds like your clutch is slipping really bad. No doubt it's slipping at the top rpm. You've got lots more mph left in that machine.

[@danielrock5964]

you still alive bro? i saw how you drove through the sketchy tunnel at 46 mph...

[@damianpaden6565]

Just got one runs good

[@crown_vicdude6690]

I feel like mine redlines a bit higher, scary especially giving the fact that it’s the exact same quad

[@thatwhite92XJ]

Cool video

[@SneakyZeke]

Thanks!

[@andrewprince4730]

Question! What is that hose line coming out of the gas cap for?

[@johnnelson4455]

Fuel vent

[@gagedeshotel2894]

Would a 250 carb work on a 230 I couldn't find a new one

[@SneakyZeke]

Probably, you might have to reject it though

[@SneakyZeke]

Rejet*

[@noahpaulette1490]

Yeah you may have to put smaller jets in but you could make more power

[@jackrus1345]

Mine is a 1985 and I hit 54mph on the road

[@SneakyZeke]

cool beans

[@rustyATV]

I figured 50mph was an "Optimistic" estimate for my LT250S, but I was in the ballpark!

[@andrewderrick6907]

I got a 250s to an mine tops around 56 so ur in the range

[@montery1970]

I'm getting around 63 on my stock 230 I upped the tire size

[@SneakyZeke]

Sounds about right

[@JerseyKidGoneWrong]

montery1970 what tires did you use ?

[@richardculver7405]

Look I have the same bike and to get it into neutral it's a half a click up

[@SneakyZeke]

No way

[@andrewderrick6907]

Wow mine topped 56

[@eman9248]

I own an 1987 230 quad sport and mine goes way faster almost 70mph it almost sounds like your clutch is slipping because that machine should have lots of mph left in her

[@DirtandDust1]

diffrent gearing maybe?

[@jeremyrock9305]

Way too much air in them tires

[@brendaminer5017]

Top speed from factory was 48 mph.

[@SneakyZeke]

Well I was definitely going faster than that

[@brendaminer5017]

@@SneakyZeke LMFAO well stock from factory is 48 mph that's fact. And you did say you had a top speed of no more than 47 mph lol. So that puts you in the stock top speed ball park! But heavily modified like mine running 12/38 puts me at 55 mph and if I were to run 13/38 it would get me no further than 58 mph. I have done the readings with all those gear ratios.

[@SneakyZeke]

Oh shit I thought this was the dirtbike top speed video. Yeah that’s about right

[@ericdaniel92]

PUT REAR SKID PLATE ON IT ! WHATS WRONG WITH YOU ? ... !

[@SneakyZeke]

A lot of things

[@Hunter-kz6os]

I don’t trust this top speed video on this ragged out machine
