The Brute Force™ 750 4x4i,
the ultimate 4x4 all-terrain vehicle (ATV) powered
by Kawasaki’s awe-inspiring V-twin engine,
has returned for 2007 and it’s sporting
an all-new color.
In addition to popular
Aztec Red and Woodsman Green, and two camouflage
patterns, the Brute Force 750 4x4i is now available
in all-new Candy Thunder Blue, further highlighting
the aggressive angular lines of this Kawasaki
Brute Force.
Simply put, the Brute Force
750 4x4i is the most powerful, high-performance
model in its class, offering a superior balance
of rider comfort and convenience features. Built
with adventure enthusiasts and sportsmen in
mind, it’s cloaked in aggressive bodywork
and powered by the largest V-twin engine on
market, and it utilizes a fully independent
rear suspension (IRS) system.
The Brute Force 750 4x4i is
powered by ’s revolutionary 90-degree,
four-stroke V-twin engine. Displacing 749cc,
it features Electrofusion-plated aluminum cylinders,
a reverse-facing air intake, 34mm downdraft
carburetors, straight intake tracts, and four
valves per cylinder. It also features a high-efficiency
radiator mounted high in the chassis where it
is best protected from mud and debris.
To assist with braking, the
engine features the Kawasaki Engine Brake Control,
which helps to slow the ATV when traversing
steep downhills.
The Brute Force 750 4x4i transfers
power from its V-twin engine to the wheels through
a continuously variable transmission (CVT) featuring
high and low range, plus reverse, and by pressing
a button on the handlebar, the rider can also
select two- or four-wheel-drive operation. In
four-wheel-drive mode, the Brute Force utilizes
a limited-slip front differential, which eases
steering effort under most riding conditions.
The rider can also engage the Variable Front
Differential Control to deliver torque equally
to the right and left front wheels for maximum
traction.
The front drive shafts of the
Brute Force feature ATV Cardan joints –
an industry first. Similar to U-joints, Cardan
joints help absorb torque fluctuations to the
drive shaft, and its lightweight design helps
to reduce vibration.
The rear final gear case and
sealed rear braking system have been designed
in conjunction with the IRS. Smaller and more
compact, the gear case is extremely rugged and
efficient.
Dual front discs and ’s
highly acclaimed sealed rear braking system
provide maximum stopping power for the Brute
Force 750 4x4i. The rear braking system’s
internal components are completely sealed to
protect them from mud, dust and debris, and
its compact size provides for more ground clearance
than a conventional rear disc brake system.
The Brute Force 750 4x4i utilizes
a simple, yet sturdy double-cradle frame made
of tubular steel, and features front dual A-arms
and IRS. The front dual A-arms have adjustable
shocks with 6.7 inches of travel, while the
IRS features a leading torsion bar and provides
7.9 inches of travel. By utilizing a combination
of needle bearings and ball joints in the lower
rear A-arms, the IRS provides smooth suspension
action for high stability and excellent rider
comfort.
The Brute Force 750 4x4i gives
the rider 10.6 inches of ground clearance and
it rides on 12-inch wheels shod with tires that
feature aggressive tread blocks. Rider position
on the Brute Force 750 4x4i is upright and comfortable,
enhancing the rider’s ability to scan
the horizon, and the automotive-style instrument
panel is positioned vertically to make it easy
to read.
The bodywork and front grille
of the Brute Force are big, strong and tough-looking.
Made of Thermo-Plastic Olefin (TPO), the plastic
has a high-gloss appearance and is scratch-resistant.
Other features include the ATV
industry’s first four-bulb headlights,
and storage compartments located in the left
and right front fenders.
The Brute Force 750 4x4i features
full-sized floorboards and a large, comfortable
seat. To enhance chassis balance, the large
5.4-gallon fuel tank is positioned beneath the
seat.
The Brute Force can carry a
combined weight of 264 pounds on its cargo racks
and has a tow rating of 1,250 pounds.
