Default Brute Force 650 problems w/ 4x4

I just bought a brand new 05 Brute Force 650 and the 4 wheel drive does not want to engage when the button is pushed. Any help would be nice. Thanks for any help yall have to offer!

the brute system requires you to roll foreware a few feet for the 4x4 to engage.

Some kick in faster than others so try and leave yourself plenty of room until you get used to your particular bike.

I love Kawis V-Twin in my AC, but im glad i got ACs 4x4 system, no pun intended. I love the BF, i just think it would benefit to get the instant 4x4

SCJames,
Is anything flashing on the dash meter (which I may be able to help)? Or are you just saying that the 4x4 engagement is too slow on kawi (which I can't help)?
