I have been out of pocket for a few months, so if this has been covered, sorry I could not find it. Does anyone have any information about the 2007 kawies?

1. BF750: will it get EFI? will it go to 800cc? will the chassie change?

2. Mule: will there be a new ORV to compete with the Rhino? something with IRS and BF750 motor?

3. 500cc utility Quad: will kawie come out with a 500 vtwin BF or prairie?

thanks for any information

 

So far, no New Stuff from Kawie for '07, other than Colors..

 

well on the sport side of things they did announce their new 450: electric start, efi, aluminum frame AND reverse. very interesting and should be a good seller. do a search... the link was posted previously. if i find it, and you want to see it, ill post it for you.

 

Oh yea, that one is NEW but I got the impression that 700vtwinman wasn't looking at the sport model of the ATVs..

 

I have read that Kawi is working on a big bore Mule type vehicle to compete with the Rhino, Prowler. I'm sure if this is built it will have the 750 motor, unless they release a new 800 on it along with a new SuperBrute.

 

I called yamaha kawasaki honda suzuki and brp to see if anymore 07 models are coming out because all of them except yamaha have there 07 models out and I called kawasaki they said no more utilty atvs are coming out. And the mules are staying the same. I asked about sport and he said that the kfx450 is going to be out and selling for september.

 

I sure hope kawie steps up to the plate again and delivers. I would like to see the bf750 bumped to 800cc, efi and some slight chassie mods. I would like to see a 500cc efi vtwin utility with irs and or sra. And it would be nice if they did come out with a 750-800cc eft vtwin utility vehicle to compete with the rhinos. Over the last 5 years, kawie has been the one who pushed the motor performance barriers and now that BPR has done that, it would be nice to see kawie answer them.

 

No, what "would've" been really nice is if Kawasaki would have released any sort of ute machine with EFI. If they would've offered the BF 650 4x4i with EFI for 2007, my search for a new big bore would've ended. But, noooooooooooooooooo.........

Big mistake, Kawasaki! You definitely lost my interest...

 

Yeah an EFI Brute Force would have been in consideration for my choices for a new ATV this fall. IF they could make it handle decent. Another wonderful motor but basket case of a suspension and handling like the current BF would have been a bitter disappointment however. I guess I'd rather see them wait and get it right than rush it and get another wobblemonster. Maybe next year.

 

EFI is overrated... especially the basic designs that are currently that can't even self adjust for something as small as just a pipe.

You aren't missing anything..
