Introduction
The Premium Hot Rod RUV with Maximum
Performance
Bumpy desert two-tracks. Rutted fire roads.
Unpredictable backwoods trails. These are the native habitats
of the Teryx® 750 FI 4x4 Sport, the hot rod of the Kawasaki
Teryx recreation utility vehicle lineup. With its lightweight
alloy wheels controlled by high-end, gas-charged shocks, the
Teryx offers a superior level of wheel and chassis control, even
through rough terrain. That control translates into more four-wheeling
fun.
The Teryx Sport's piggyback-reservoir shocks are fully adjustable
for spring preload, compression damping and rebound damping,
meaning that riders can get the most out of this advanced suspension
by tuning it to their desired settings. Shocks on all four wheels
make quick work of rugged terrain.
Durable and reliable power is the name of the RUV game, and nobody
can touch the Teryx Sport's 749cc 90-degree 8-valve V-twin. This
engine is not only plenty powerful, its also supremely smooth
thanks to the 90-degree configuration's perfect primary balance.
This design offers unmatched smoothness at any rpm and
a great exhaust note that sets the Teryx apart from lesser RUVs.
A robust cooling system with a large cooling fan and a large
diameter hose make the engine even more reliable.
The Teryx's high-end suspension units are easy to appreciate
even when you're not moving. The aluminum-bodied gas-charged
piggyback-reservoir shocks are fully adjustable for spring preload,
compression damping and rebound damping for maximum tunability
and control of its lightweight aluminum wheels. Each wheel is
a whopping two pounds lighter a standard Teryx wheel, and this
8-pound difference in unsprung weight is easy to feel at speed.
The Teryx Sport's advanced digital fuel-injection system includes
functions for 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, which won't allow the Teryx Sport to
be ridden away when the parking brake is engaged. This braking
system technology complements the Teryx's CVT Belt Protection
System, which, among other good things, 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 perfectly packaged
within an advanced chassis that's narrow enough to navigate the
gnarliest trails (and fit in a standard pickup bed), yet wide
enough to offer a roomy cab and an excellent ride. The wide-track
design frame uses large-diameter, thin-walled tubing to combine
tremendous rigidity with light weight. And the upper frame adds
great looks and protection, while providing 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 strapped 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, to practically anywhere
you feel like going. A cockpit-adjustable variable front differential
control even lets you fine-tune front-end traction.
Long-travel independent suspension, those fully adjustable 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
reduces camber changes for sharp steering at all times. When
it's time to slow down, dual discs up front and a high-tech sealed
oil-bath braking unit out back get the job done with power to
spare, while Kawasaki Engine Braking Control uses clever electronics
to assist with engine braking when driving down hills. Custom
26-inch Maxxis tires designed for the Teryx's characteristics
are the final ingredient in its amazingly potent handling package.
A large selection of authentic Kawasaki Accessories are available
through Kelly's Kawasaki for the 2012 Teryx 750 FI 4x4 Sport
RUV. As with all off-highway vehicle recreation, Kawasaki encourages
RUV drivers to drive responsibly and to respect the environment.
