With its durable four-stroke engine, electric start, five-speed transmission and steel cargo racks, Kawasaki’s Bayou® 250 is one of the best values on four wheels. From playing games in the field to working around the ranch, the rugged and affordable Bayou 250 is ready for anything thrown its way.

The Bayou 250 ATV utilizes independent A-arm front suspension and is the only ATV in its class to feature a semi-independent multi-link rear suspension. This design provides a smooth, compliant ride without the complexity and maintenance requirements of a fully independent design.

Additional features include triple drum brakes, hitch bracket, easy-to-read fuel
gauge and a 12-volt accessory connector that makes hooking up electrical accessories quick and easy. Plus, its steel cargo racks can carry a combined weight of 110 pounds.
