I already saw the photos. It is a Kawi made Vtwin 750 w/IRS. Not a stinking one lunger. It is agressively styled. People will not be calling it wimpy looking.

I can see the engine and muffler look like our 650/700. The body plastic is simple looking, without the flaky trim we have. The bolt pattern on the wheels is different. Spacing is different. Tires don't look like they suck as much as stock prairie tires.

Welcome over to Kawasaki, Andy. Look at my website, just one inch under the green atv at the top left.

Oh yeah dude, I'm at work, and I just dropped everything and went looking for pics of this thing. Looks good too. I assume they use the same handlebar level locker? I could care less, as long as it locks, and thats all that matters. The mechanism is just something for folks to argue about later when they try to pick 2 different quads apart. It looks real good. I'm thinking fall and I may have to trade up again. This was unexpected.

I still like my grab on the fly diff lock. It looks the same on the BF750. I am glad they kept it.

I like what they did with the plastic trim (or lack), and I like the lack of struts.

I don't care for the front fenders at all. Wheelies at 20 mph sounds awesome though. I hope the looks grow on me.
