I have owned it since new and when in lend it to anyone they want to buy it even though it 14years old. Has never broken down and it's used harshly in rough terrain 65 miles runs every Saturday.

I have owned my Vinson since brand new and it has been extremely reliable! I have used it in extreme conditions such as sub-zero temps, deep snow, mud, and much more. It has been used in search and rescue ops and it has hauled out many deer! My only complaint is the straight axle which will flip ... you very easily in unfamiliar territory.

I have owned the 2005 Suzuki Vinson Manual since new(150km). It has been a very reliable bike with good performance for both work and play. I do not baby the Vinson when I ride it, but I have put very little money into it and it still drives great.

Since I bought the bike I have put almost ... 8000km on it with regular maintenance. The engine has lots of power with lots of pep, it has a solid drive-train, and a solid rear axle which i find great because you can haul a trailer full of wood without sitting on the ground.

I put a set of 26" ITP Mud-lite's on it for added traction when I ride and a set of chains for when I plow in the winter. I live in eastern Ontario, we get very bad winters. I put a 6' plow on the Vinson and with a set of chains on the rear, it will push banks of snow taller than the bike.

I have had to replace the rear swing-arm seals, bearings and a new front lower A-arm, which i take is from my aggressive riding style.

Never the less, it has been a very strong, reliable and all-around good bike for me.
