The
ultimate RUV meets the ultimate outdoor
motif
It’s an awesome combination for
outdoorsmen: Take the world’s leading
Recreation Utility Vehicle (RUV) and bless
it with high-tech Realtree® APG™
HD® camouflage graphics. The result
is a veritable dream machine for hunters
– one also known as 2011 Kawasaki’s
Teryx™ 750 FI 4x4 LE Camo.

2011
Kawasaki Teryx 750 4x4 Camo's windscreen
will keep those stray branches,
roost & other debris from entering
the cockpit |
The addition of Realtree APG HD graphics
on the Camo model’s bodywork, wheels,
bumper, roof and dash take this outdoor/hunting
vehicle to a new level. The extras that
boost this RUV to another league include
a deflector windscreen, protective cab
roof and retractable cup holders. The
rest of the package is totally top-shelf,
and includes a high-tech liquid-cooled
V-twin engine surrounded by an advanced
chassis featuring sport-focused suspension.
The original Teryx 750 FI 4x4 LE topped
the competition immediately after its
introduction a few years ago, scoring
big with journalists and buyers all over
America. Through the years it’s
been continually refined, receiving digital
fuel injection and a host of other upgrades
in 2009, and an aggressive new front end
with a hinged, forward-tilting hood, easier
maintenance, a better cooling system,
a sturdier tilting bed and several other
improvements for added vehicle durability
in 2010.
Power is key when it comes to a performance
RUV like the Teryx LE Camo, and when it
comes to power, no other RUV can touch
this one’s 749cc 90-degree eight-valve
V-twin. Not only is this engine plenty
powerful down low and higher in its rev
range, its 90-degree configuration gives
it perfect primary balance for unmatched
smoothness at any rpm - and a great exhaust
note that sets the Teryx LE Camo apart
from lesser RUVs.
Feeding that impressive engine its cocktail
of fuel and air is the Teryx LE Camo’s
advanced digital fuel-injection system.
The system offers automatic elevation
compensation, automatic idle adjustment
and easy, choke-free starting via a sophisticated
array of sensors for inlet air pressure,
throttle position, crankshaft position,
rpm, water temperature and a vehicle down
sensor. There’s also an ignition
cut-out feature that won’t allow
the Teryx Camo to be ridden away when
the parking brake is engaged. That new
braking system technology complements
the Teryx’s CVT Belt Protection
System, which automatically retards ignition
timing if the system detects engine operation
at high rpm for more than two seconds
while the rear wheels are motionless (i.e.,
the belt is slipping) and warns the rider
via a flashing belt warning lamp on the
dash.
All that electronically enhanced performance
is packaged in an advanced chassis narrow
enough to navigate most trails (and fit
in a standard pickup bed), yet wide enough
to offer a roomy cab and a great ride.
The wide-track design frame uses large-diameter,
thin-walled tubing to combine tremendous
rigidity with light weight. And the upper
frame combines cool style and protection
with enough room inside to fit two full-sized
adults in a comfortable but supportive
pair of bucket seats with retractable
three-point seat belts.
Once comfortably buckled in, the rider
can choose 2WD or 4WD with the flip of
a switch, and Kawasaki’s super-efficient
continuously variable transmission takes
it from there, taking you practically
anywhere you feel like going. A cockpit-adjustable
variable front differential control even
lets you fine tune front-end traction.
And while you’re doing all that,
the Camo’s half windshield and cab
top shield you from the elements, while
its retractable cup holders make it easy
to grab a refreshing drink on the go.
Long-travel four-wheel independent suspension,
adjustable Kayaba gas-charged shocks at
all four corners, a rear stabilizer bar
and mid-ship engine placement all work
together to tame tough trails, while a
high-performance long A-arm double-wishbone
suspension design that reduces camber
changes offers sharp steering at all times.
When it’s time to slow down, dual
discs up front and a high-tech sealed
oil-bath brake system in back get the
job done with power to spare, while Kawasaki
Engine Braking Control uses clever electronics
to assist with engine braking while driving
down hills.
Specially designed 26-inch Maxxis tires
custom-built for the Teryx LE Camo’s
design characteristics are the final ingredient
in its amazingly potent handling package.
The net result is an amazingly capable
machine for outdoorsmen of all stripes.
And when it comes to beating mother nature,
capability is the name of the game.
A large selection of authentic Kawasaki
Accessories are available through Kawasaki
dealers for the 2011 Teryx 750 FI 4x4
LE Camo. As with all off-highway vehicle
recreation, Kawasaki encourages RUV drivers
to drive responsibly and to respect the
environment.
