Introduction

A handy helper with a wallet-friendly price

Don't judge it by its size: The Bayou® 250 ATV is a formidable workhorse. Simple to use and easy to love, this economical ATV combines a durable air-cooled four-stroke single with a five-speed transmission plus reverse, connected to a reliable and quiet shaft drive. Plus, its steel front and rear racks have a combined payload capacity of 110 pounds.

This tough little worker uses an independent A-arm front suspension and a semi-independent multi-link rear suspension. This design equals a smooth, compliant ride without any of the complexity or maintenance required by a fully independent design.

The Bayou 250's features include triple drum brakes, easy-to-read fuel gauge and a 12-volt accessory connector to provide quick and easy power to your electronic devices. A tow hitch bracket means that the Bayou 250 can tow 450 pounds. It is also equipped with a throttle limiter - making its power friendlier for new riders. Owners can increase the versatility of their Bayou ATV with an extensive line of Authentic Kawasaki Accessories.
