My buddy just bought a Brute Force 750. I noticed there is very little storage areas on the ATV. Does Kawasaki sell any storage bags or boxes? I know he can get aftermarket stuff...but what about Kawasaki? Saw nothing online. Thanks in advance for the help.

 

There is a storage container that goes on the opposite side of the muffler

 

I have a 2 yr old kawasaki plastic rear box, but I don't know if they are still making them. It works good and holds a lot of stuff including helmet.

I also have kawasaki fender bags which I don't recommend. They are in the way when getting on and off and scratch fender plastic really bad.

 

Where can that storage container be purchased?

 

At your local Kawie dealer here is the part #39012-5013

 

how much is the Kawasaki storage container?

 

I have both the rear and front storage boxes from Kawasaki. Thre rear is Part # ATV900-002A for $154.95. The front is part # ATV900-001A for $134.95. You can see them in my pictures. They have worked very well for me, keep everything dry.

 

the storage container that goes opposite of the muffler on a bf 750 looks to be a waste of money. from what i hear its not waterproof and it is very, very, very small. like the size of your hand. its like 30 to 50$ fro all of the pieces and hardware. your better off going with regular bags or boxes. kawi will probably come out with some type of brute specific storage(boxes and bags) pretty soon.

I have (2) of the 4" thickwall PVC tubes each about 13-14" long. Both are fitted on one end with a standard plastic PVC internal endcap and the other end is fitted with a compression plug. The compression plug comes with a large wing nut to tighten the plug in the PVC. I have one mounted just behind the taillight and another just behind the front bumper. The one in the front does double duty by adding protection for the radiator. I've been using these on ATV's for the last 10 years and they have proven to be the only watertight storage on the machine. I also have the Kawasaki storage box and it holds quite a bit more than it looks like it would and has been watertight for me. The trick to making the compression plug fit is to be sure you make a flat and smooth cut on the PVC. Make sure you purchase the "thickwall" PVC so the compression plug will make a watertight seal. You can get all your materials at Home Depot or Lowes. I secured mine with a small piece of aluminium bolted to the side of each tube and secured to the ATV. This prevents the tube from turning when you tighten or loosen the plug. I've also seen others use 8" PVC tubing fastened to their racks. Not pretty but functional.
