Suzuki appoints ARK ATVs to its national network of dealers

Suzuki is proud to have appointed ARK ATVs as an Authorised Dealer in the Southwest for its renowned KingQuad all-terrain vehicles.

 

ARK is a well-established specialist ATV sales and service centre based near Minehead in Somerset. Family-owned and run since 1997, the business was originally set up by Rob and Kathy Blomfield-Richards alongside Tony Leader and it is still going strong to this day. Rob and Tony have over 75 years of ATV experience between them, selling over 10,000 ATVs during this time.

 

ARK has decades of experience supplying farmers and landowners with ATVs, attachments, trailers and accessories. The team at ARK also includes experienced ATV engineers and technicians who provide customers with the best possible service and support.

 

Suzuki’s range currently comprises of three core versatile models that come in the ever-popular Flame Red and Terra Green colours; the KingQuad 500 and 500XP as well as the KingQuad 750XP (XP denotes independent suspension and power steering). The range also includes special edition 500XPZ and 750XPZ models, which come with alloy wheels and in two unique colours – True Timber Camo and Matt Rocky Grey.

 

These robust machines are the culmination of years of refinement and their high levels of technical specification and ease of handling give riders confidence on any terrain, making them suitable for several applications including hill and lowland farming, estate management and use on equestrian properties

 

All Suzuki KingQuads benefit from a number of key features that make them a pleasure to ride. The classic Suzuki T-shaped seat is extremely comfortable for all-day use and the ergonomic riding position means that these machines are easy to handle and steer.

 

The front suspension, steering system, power steering system, rear stabiliser, and chassis frame all combine to deliver excellent straight-line stability as well as sure-footed handling when cornering and improved manoeuvrability. This also makes the machine easier to ride as shock levels are reduced and less rider effort is required when travelling over diverse terrain. The super-smooth automatic gearbox also delivers proven reliability as well as strong engine braking for confident downhill travel.

  

Understanding its customers and the environment in which they work is part of Suzuki’s ethos. To this end, Suzuki understands that ATVs are an important and valuable asset, which is why it provides a theft security system as standard, which includes the CESAR forensic marking system from Datatag and a Thatcham-accredited tracking and immobiliser system from Datatool.

 

James Westwood from ARK ATVs said, “We are so pleased to be adding Suzuki KingQuads to our product range. These machines are so robust and reliable we know they are already popular among farmers, and we are looking forward to being able to offer them exclusively to our customers.”

 

Mark Beeley, Head of ATV & Marine for Suzuki GB said, “It is great to welcome ARK ATVs to the Suzuki family. We know they will do a great job in representing our brand and we are looking forward to working with them.”
