  • More Powerful Fuel Injected 90-Degree 749cc V-Twin Engine - Revised top and oil rings for the pistons (piston grooves where modified accordingly) help prevent oil consumption and reduce blow-by gases
  • New Electric Power Steering System - Kawasaki’s high-grade Electric Power Steering (EPS) system offers both enhanced handling and increased ride comfort. Turning the bars causes a signal to be sent to the electronic steering control unit, initiating power assist
  • New Electric Power Steering System - Revised steering assembly relocates the bottom of the steering shaft so that it is no longer directly connected to the front differential. Movement of the differential due to changes in throttle application in 4x4 mode no longer affects the steering assembly, resulting in significantly smoother handling
  • New Electric Power Steering System - The EPS assembly enhances ride quality and control by also acting as a damping system. Even when steering input is neutral, the added inertia of the electric motor acts as a stabilizer. Likewise, it significantly reduces bump steer and kickback to the bars caused by wheel impacts
  • New Electric Power Steering System - The EPS ECU uses input from a vehicle speed sensor and torque sensor to determine the amount of steering assistance required from the system’s electric motor. At slow speeds or when stopped, assistance is greatest; assistance is reduced as vehicle speed increases to help ensure predictable handling

  • New Wide and Rugged Styling - New covered hood storage bin offers additional convenience and is large enough to hold two 16 oz. bottles
  • New Wide and Rugged Styling - New dual wide-set 35-watt headlights help provide excellent lighting for nighttime rides
  • New Wide and Rugged Styling - New front and rear fenders complement the tougher-looking design
  • New Wide and Rugged Styling - New protective shielding under the front hood helps prevent mud from reaching the air intake, and also helps protect the relocated electrical equipment from the elements
  • New Wide and Rugged Styling - New taillight design compliments the new wide-stance bodywork
  • New Wide and Rugged Styling - Revised deflectors and inner bodywork provide greater overlap between the airbox intake tube and snorkel extension, making it even more difficult for water and/or mud to get into the air cleaner

  • Relaxed Cockpit - New seat material has superb elasticity, offering increased comfort and holding performance. The material is also resistant to cold, allowing it to maintain its suppleness when temperatures drop and reducing the chance of tearing/ripping when exposed to extremely cold environments
  • Relaxed Cockpit - New sport style grips help reduce felt vibration and enhance rider control, as well as offering molded-in safety wire grooves
  • Upgraded CVT and Powertrain - Cardan joints on drive shafts absorb torque fluctuations and reduce vibration
  • Upgraded CVT and Powertrain - Changing one of the CVT’s high gear ratios and using a thicker belt made of stronger material contributes to longer belt life and reduced maintenance requirements
  • Upgraded CVT and Powertrain - Limited-slip front differential reduces steering effort under normal four-wheel drive operation, while Variable Front Differential Control permits rider to distribute torque equally to front wheels for maximum traction
  • Upgraded CVT and Powertrain - Plastic front and rear axle boots provide protection from debris
