Aloha, Just wanted to say I went on a crazy mountain scramble last weekend with a bunch of good guys. Had some Utilities, MX 125's, MC 250"s, 400ex's, Wolverines, Rancher (mine), and Kawi. Man....that Kawi sounds GOOD! I love the whine and thump! And the OEM Holeshots just laughed at whatever was thrown at it. Shaft drive? Dude never had to worry about bustin' a chain on a rock! Shiftin' ? No need to shift when he could just K.I.Pinned! Awww....someday I can have all the toys in the world! It's clear the Kawasaki is researching what Average Joe wants to ride...some can't afford to have a different quad for different purposes....seems this sport quad fuzzies up the line between MX and trail! I love it! p.s. The bike was gettin' MAD air too!

 

Yep, they rock. I love mine!!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

the only down side that i see is the weight and size of it. how much wider is it really than say a 400ex or other quads in its class.

 

It is quiet a bit heavier than a 400ex and wider and longer, however the power makes the bike feel lighter than it really is.

 

being wide isn't bad. the wider a quad the more stable it is in cornering..........but to wide and they are a handful in tight trails..........a 400ex can't hold a candle to the v. the ex needs to be heavily moded to hang with the v in any situation or have a damn good rider in the woods!

Yeah but i still like the 400ex better. who knows what my next bike will be, probably a banshee.

 

I've got a 400ex and a V-Force in my garage. The V-force is like 2 inches longer and 3 inches wider....There's really not such a big difference between the two. The seat height is taller, and it weighs more, but it's just as easy to ride (easier to ride where ground clearance is an issue). Do I have a favorite between the two...nope...I got the V-Force for my wife. It's an easy quad to learn to ride on, and she'll never grow out of it. It's a true "gas it and go" quad.
