Overview
KAWASAKIS TERYX RECREATION UTILITY VEHICLE (RUV) SERIES:
FULL-SIZE TOUGHNESS. UNCOMPROMISING HIGH PERFORMANCE
Kawasaki continues to stake its claim in the realm of recreation utility vehicles with a tough line of Teryx RUV models. Designed to offer the most advanced technology and the highest performance in the RUV world, the 2010 Teryx 750 FI 4x4 mates a powerful fuel-injected V-Twin engine with a stable wide-body chassis and top-shelf suspension, then backs it all with Kawasakis legendary durability and reliability. The result is a line of tough, full-size machines with uncompromising high performance.

Engine
OFF-ROAD PERFORMANCE ESSENTIALS
RUV Worlds Only High-performance V-Twin / CVT Transmission
The only V-Twin in its category offers excellent engine power characteristics: smooth, strong power at all rpms – especially in the mid-range – and quick response. Combined with the CVT transmission, the result is instant acceleration – at any rpm. And with fuel injection, setting adjustments to match altitude changes are unnecessary, idling adjustments are unnecessary, and starting is hassle-free.
Liquid-cooled, 4-stroke 749 cc V-Twin offers powerful torque and superb response
Oversquare bore and stroke measure 85 x 66 mm.
The 90° V-Twin configuration offers perfect primary balance, resulting in low engine vibration.
NEW - Slightly increased flyweight mass offers a slight increase in torque feel.
Taking into account coolant temperature, air intake temperature, throttle position, air intake pressure, vehicle speed and crankshaft angle, the fuel injection system (which uses 34 mm throttle bodies and a 32-bit CPU) automatically meters out the ideal amount of fuel for extremely stable power delivery – no matter what the conditions.
A high-pressure fuel pump is located inside the tank. A unique reservoir chamber at the bottom of the fuel pump ensures air does not get into the fuel system.
Engine power characteristics combined with CVT offer phenomenal acceleration. The CTV gives a very direct feel from the engine, and response is also very quick – ideal characteristics for hard riding.
To minimize unnecessary belt wear, a transmission failsafe system automatically retards ignition timing and warns the rider via a belt warning lamp should the engine operate at high rpm for more than 2 seconds while the rear wheels remain motionless (i.e. rear wheels are immobilized and the belt is slipping). The system makes use of input from a gear sensor (not in neutral), vehicle speed (measured from the rear wheel), TPS and engine speed.
ECU features a fuel injection cut control that limits engine speed should the driver attempt to ride away with the parking brake still engaged.
NEW - Larger-diameter radiator fan (211 mm >> 282 mm) increases cooling capacity.
Heat shielding on the exhaust pipe below the intake duct effectively reduces intake temperature.

The Teryx offers the shoulder and legroom to comfortably accommodate 2 adults.
Form-fitting bucket seats and three-point seatbelts hold rider and passenger firmly in place.
SUPERIOR CARGO CAPACITY INCREASES VERSATILITY
In addition to its top-level sport performance and rugged off-road performance, the Teryxs cargo-carrying potential and transportability make it a capable partner for leisure/recreation activities, such as camping, hunting or day trips.
Cargo Space
With its substantial 227 kg (500 lb) carrying capacity, the Teryx is an able partner for a wide range of recreational activities
Gas-assisted tilting cargo bed (a standard feature on all models) facilitates dumping cargo.

Integrated cargo net secures items being transported in the cargo bed.
Transportability
The Teryx is compact enough to fit in the bed of most full-size* pickup trucks
* Teryx may not fit in some pickup trucks.
Range
The 28 litre fuel tank offers the range to easily allow campers and hunters to get deep into the bush and back without having to worry about refuelling.
Protection from the elements
Steel engine guards protect the engine from damage when traversing rough trails.
Rear mudguard help keep the area under the seat clean

Suspension
High-grade Sport-focused Suspension Enables Hard Riding
The Teryxs sporty suspension settings were based on the goal of ensuring controlled riding right up to the vehicles maximum speed. Combined with the wide-track chassis and mid-ship engine, the highly reliable Kayaba suspensions ground-following ability enables sure-footed handling in rough terrain and superb cornering performance. Sport models feature higher-grade suspension, further facilitating high-level sport riding.
High-performance, single-chamber gas-charged shocks offer excellent fade-resistant damping performance, even in hard conditions.
Rear shocks feature piggy-back reservoirs. The extra volume of oil helps the shocks run cooler, enabling more stable damping performance under hard conditions.
Both front and rear shocks are preload-adjustable.

Brakes and Wheels
High-performance Off-road Brake Performance
The combination of high-performance disc brakes at the front and a sealed wet brake at the rear offers formidable braking power – an essential component for hard riding. Using two independent systems also ensures reliable braking performance is maintained even in wet or muddy conditions.
Dual 200 mm front brakes gripped by 27 mm twin-piston calipers provide solid stopping power at the front. The discs are recessed in wheels to provide protection from debris, while the rigid-mount calipers deliver enhanced brake feel and increased control.
Unaffected by mud, dirt or rocks
The sealed, internal wet brake also offers longer life than standard disc brakes.
Large 26 Tires
The Teryx sports the largest tires available in the RUV category. Its 12 rims and 26 tires, overcome obstacles more easily than smaller tires and contribute to its excellent rough road handling.
MAXXIS tires specially developed for the Teryx maximize forward traction while offering excellent control for aggressive cornering.
Cast Aluminium Wheels (KRF750S only)
Instead of the standard steel rims, Sport models feature cast aluminium rims. In addition to reducing unsprung weight (each 1 kg lighter than the standard wheels) and increased strength, the polished rims add to the Sport models appearance.
