    Kawi Brute Force 750....50BHP!

    Yup...Kawizuki has come out with a bigger, better sport-utility.

    Check it out:



    Well i hope you all enjoy this as much as me. I was able to ride and examine this awesome machine. The machine that broke the mold was the prairie 650 and the new 750 brute force independant is no different. Incorporating the best of the original and building from there.
    You will see the wet brake system , diff lock , and v-twin engine. The engine has new heads, cylinders, and 34mm carbs. The carbs , airbox, filter ,and manifolds are all new. Horsepower is 50bhp and 44 lbs tourqe.


    The good stuff .. in the 66 miles that i enjoyed this machine i rode wheelies from a dead stop, wheelies from 20 mph rolling , and had water over the seat with no problems at all. The brute force was very stable and very fast. Top speed stock should be between 66 and 69 mph. Although i enjoy speed greatly i do like to creep through the trees . I rode in low range 4x4 up and down steep inclines and hardly heard the fan. Must be because the radiator is massive and does a great job of keeping all the motor cool. while decending these hills i noticed in low that it would just creep down the hill without using the brakes. The engine brake is great.
    There are four colors available aztec red, green , desert yellow , and camo

    If it had a 5 (or 6) speed auto clutch tranny...I would be sold
    [20:55] <waterpumper> putting a racing pipe on a Foreman is like putting a high dollar bikini on a 400 pound chick...just because it fits doesn't mean it looks cool

    That would be sick with a manual tranny. I want one in Kawi green. Wonder what Pendland Racing will do with it?

    I think they're going a little over the top here. Ok, it looks nice and you will have bragging rights but I still haven't been anywhere my 400 doesn't have enough power to go. It's all about traction. In my opinion, all these bigger quads are becoming harder to work on and sucking down more and more gas. A few years ago, if you had a 300...you were the man!! Now the 300's are like a youth model. I mean when are the 1000 and 1500's gonna come out? Hell, lets drop a V8 in 'em!! ....Hey I like that new 4-wheeler ya got there... "Yeah, its got a Hemi"

    I agree here with ya. even a 350 has all the power you would realy need most of the time. and im talking about 350cc not big or small block chevy's.

    i agree...who needs that much of an engine? NO ONE! my friend has a sportsman 500 and it will go just about anywhere. i dont think they should be allowed to go more than about 500cc's on a fourwheeler engine. dont get me wrong here but if someone wanted a custom one for sped , i wouldnt have a problem with that but utilities dont need to go fast.

    I am a big Kawi fan. I have a 04 Prarie 700. The motor is the best thing about it. I love that I can wheelie a 700lb 4wheel drive ATV, slide it into a turn like a sport quad and just have a blast w/ a machine that big!! I hope that Kawi did its homework w/ the BruteForce. I have ridden all the bigbore 4X4s, I hope the BF does not have too much body roll. Some of the independants are tuff in high speed corners.
    Don't knock the big bores till you try one. It was funny as h_ll to watch Kimmers buddy SMOKE a Z400 on the Haspin Acres strip w/ my 4X4 utility!!

    Actually MIK6, the Prarie 700's only weigh 600lbs! and according to DW, this new 750 only weighs 5lbs more!!. I say, you can NEVER have too many cc's unless it starts to affect handling and weight - which in this case it dosen't. What I find really funny here is the fact that this 750 ONLY puts out 50hp. The Zilla LT500KRs paltry little 500cc pinger churned out 52hp and probably weighs only a 3rd of the 750 twins heft.

    Hey finger, What would you do if you got a 600 lb 4X4 atv stuck??? You use the 75 lb winch you put on the front of it, you get a strap out of your rack bag to save a tree, you have to have at least another 25 lbs back there LOL. Remember that its a dry weight as well, 4.5 gallons of gas, oil, and anitfreeze. I think a 700 lb guess is conservitave!! I love to see the guys w/ the big plastic boxes w/ about 200lbs of SH_T in them, asking why theirs is slower. LOL
    I just had to bust your balls a bit LOL
