Sure sounds like Kawasaki is going to have a hot atv for 2001. Twin cylinder utility, sure sounds like a good idea to me I've been waiting a long time for this to start. No more info for a while but they say they will be just as light as the others. There is just no replacement for more LUNGS. All other utilities have only one....

It's still a Kawasaki. Goes back to the old saying, you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.

It certainly does have everybody thinking though. It could wind up being the ultimate mud machine if it designed to be waterproof with torque available to pull 28" outlaws. Providing of course they have designed the axles, cv's and U-joints to handle the torsional stress.

I am glad its a Kawasaki, their quality is probably second best in the industry. When it comes out I am going to look at them.

Hopefully this will be a good selling machine and get of the other companies interested. This would have to be a great work machine with a great towing capacity. Also a great hill climber, or mud bogger. I just wish that companies would give more options when buying a four-wheeler, like standard or automatic.

The reliability of Kawasaki's, is second only to Honda. This is an exciting machine, and coming from the only company that could make me jump off the Honda band wagon. Awsome!

The last post was just plain stupid, some people, like me, dont want to go 90 all the time, and still others actually use there atv's for work. I'm sorry if that is a little hard for some of you to realize, but it actually happens, most of the people I ride with use their 4-wheelers on the farm durring the week and then go play on the weekends. It's not all about whos got the biggest damn sport quad, most of the time, unless you are racing, it's which quad meets your needs. If you honestly feel the need to go as fast as you possibly can, then go ahead and do it. Whenever my friends and I ride, it doesnt matter how fast we go because we are riding for the fun of it, not to see who's got the biggest, fastest sport quad. I personally feel that many of the people repling to these fourms need a reality check to figure out that its not all about whos fastest.
