2010 Kawasaki Brute Force® 750 4x4i ATVs - An Amazing Machine...With The Right Tires That Is

Let me start by saying that Kawasaki's V-twin engine is the starting point of falling in love with this machine. The Brute Force suspension is great, yes. The steering works well with very little bump steer, yes. But these are all just icing on the cake. The V-twin acceleration is awesome, thanks in part to Kawasaki's CVT setup. Keep in mind that Kawasaki has chosen to use a CVT setup that does not keep constant belt tension and uses an engine brake device that works by putting pressure on the belt to slow the machine, but that does NOT mean it isn't a good system, because it is. A few points that I would like to add about the Brute Force. 1. Just because it has a 749cc engine does not mean the suspension and drive train can be abused without something wearing faster. 2. Brute Force's are known for "belt issues", but keep in mind that bigger wheels and tires cause a much bigger strain on the belt while engine breaking. Unless you HAVE TO HAVE huge mud tires (which you don't) be prepared for belt issues. 3. If you are going to buy a Brute Force, do your best to get one 2008 or newer. Pre-2008 models were tall and tippy, and had numerous issues with a-arm bushings going out among other issues. 4. A radial set of tires, either 25" or 26" max, will COMPLETELY change how this ATV rides and handles. Simply put, radials are your absolute best investment for this machine. I have owned Polaris, Suzuki and Yamaha and liked them all. I now own the Brute Force and I absolutely love it. It's not as soft as the Polaris, as well thought out as a Suzuki, as well rounded as a Yamaha, but it has that certain "it" factor for me that no other ATV can give. To summerize, the 749cc would at first seem like too much power, but after you have ridden a few times, nothing else will do....it's just right. If and when you add bigger tires (over 26"), you change the dynamics of the suspension and steering geometry and the machine will handle adversely to how it was designed. Ground clearance numbers are not as important as people make them out to be. Just watch a little Honda go JUST ABOUT anywhere the jacked up ones do. Also, when getting a set of radials check the weight of your tires, because rotational mass weight is heavier than say weight you would put on your ATV racks. I LOVE THIS BIKE!!!
