Default any new news?

My dealer talked to his Kawasaki rep today, and asked if Kawasaki was coming out with an '05 Brute Force 750. He was told no, they were not doing anything new with the big bores, but that they were coming out with a new mid-size utility ATV.

My dealer has a 750 reserved for me anyway [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

OldmanWheeler went in and told the Kawi dealer he wanted to put a 750 IRS EFI Prairie on order so as soon as they release them he can get one! The dealer asked him how the he11 he knew about them,,, he also told him not to tell anyone else about them or he will be stuck with his remaining 700 Prairies! LOL!!!!!!!

They just started produxtion on the 750 EFI IRS, and the Mike Penland Edition 750 EFI SRA. I think the SRA model will be available in lime green. SRA=Solid Rear Axle.

Kawasaki is NOT selling the new suzuki one lunger. I think I heard that Suzuki will not be selling the Twin Peaks anymore.

Thanks, pw, I read that they will have shocks in front on another forum.

The post just said shocks, not shocks instead of struts. I guess that confused me since a mcpherson strut has a cartridge that is also called a shock absorber by some people (it is a shock, actually, with less degrees of freedom). I realize that is picking over semantics. I am now happy to know that they will have dual arms instead of struts.

Anyone else know any goodies, like is there really going to be a 500IRS machine too?
