Kawasaki’s 1000cc side-by-side isn’t here to haul hay or check dam levels. It’s designed for speed over munted terrain. It costs a bomb (over $35,000) and it’s aiming its bug-like front end squarely at Yamaha’s YXZ1000R.
There aren’t a lot of these things getting about so check availability with your local Kawi dealer and make sure you have a lot of open space available to wind it out.
