Introduction
Top of the line Teryx performance
with hard core racer styling
For 2009, Kawasaki slipped a digital fuel-injected (DFI) V-Twin
engine into the stable wide-body chassis of its impressive Teryx™
recreation utility vehicle (RUV), then equipped it with upgraded,
fully adjustable, high performance suspension components and
cast aluminum wheels. For riders seeking the latest racetrack
style, Kawasaki's Teryx 750 FI 4x4 Sport Monster Energy®
is the answer. With its black bodywork and wheels highlighted
by an aggressive Monster Energy graphics set, this high performance
RUV will certainly stand out from the pack.
Inheriting the Teryx family's efficient CVT, superior ground
clearance, useful cargo capacity and fuel-injected, mid-mounted
749cc 90-degree V-twin engine, the Teryx 750 FI 4x4 Sport offers
the class-leading performance and features that performance-minded
RUV customers have been seeking.
Strong and proven, the quick revving, fuel injected, large-bore
V-twin engine features ignition timing that is tuned to allow
it to rocket through the low and mid range with plenty of life
left for high rpm performance. The Teryx 750 FI 4x4 Sport's digital
fuel injection (DFI) system automatically compensates for altitude
and temperature changes. The DFI system uses a sophisticated
mix of sensors that includes an inlet air pressure, throttle,
crankshaft, speed, water temperature and a vehicle down sensor.
A new fuel tank with a fuel pump to keep the Teryx's engine fed
were also part of the FI package.
The Teryx Sport's superb continuously variable transmission (CVT)
smoothly and efficiently transfers the robust power and quick
response from its big V-twin to the wheels. This powertrain delivers
true sport performance in a controlled manner, so the driver
can exploit the full potential of the Teryx 750 FI 4x4 Sport.
The CVT utilizes a high-grade belt that is highly durable and
designed to handle the high output of the engine. To minimize
unnecessary belt wear, prevent undesired tire spin and offer
upgraded rock section performance with less belt overloading,
a CVT Belt Protection System uses inputs from a gear sensor (not
in neutral), vehicle speed (measured from the rear wheel), Throttle
Position Sensor (TPS), and engine speed to monitor belt conditions.
Should the transmission failsafe system detect engine operation
at high rpm for more than two seconds while the rear wheels remain
motionless (i.e. rear wheels are immobilized and the belt is
slipping) it automatically retards ignition timing and warns
the rider via a flashing belt warning lamp.
Big power demands an equally capable chassis, and the Teryx 750
FI 4x4 Sport delivers with a body width that's narrow enough
to effectively negotiate trails, yet wide enough to offer additional
stability, a roomy cab and help cope with the healthy output
from its powerful V-twin. The wide track Teryx design employs
a large-diameter, thin-walled tubular frame offering the necessary
rigidity without performance draining weight. It also meets SAE
requirements as a roll-over protective structure (ROPS) with
an arrangement spacious enough to comfortably fit two full-sized
adults.
Long A-arm and narrow frame give the Teryx 750 FI 4x4 Sport's
aluminum alloy wheels maximum travel and minimal camber change
throughout the suspension's stroke. The cast and machined aluminum
wheels offer reduced unsprung weight - by about two pounds each
- and increased strength over the standard Teryx's steel units.
They also add to the Sport model's appearance.
A revised stabilizer bar and increased adjustability on the new
Teryx 750 FI 4x4 Sport's suspension makes a significant contribution
to its handling and ride quality. Its front and rear Kayaba shocks
are aluminum bodied, gas-charged units with piggy-back reservoirs,
which reduce the tendency of the oil to froth under hard conditions.
They provide adjustable preload and fully adjustable rebound
and compression damping. The Sport's higher-grade suspension
component's superior ability to soak up bumps translates to increased
control and enhanced comfort on the trail.
Mounted on the stylish matte black aluminum alloy wheels, the
tall and aggressive 26-inch Maxxis tires were developed specifically
for the Teryx. The tires give it superb forward and sliding traction
along with good rough terrain handling and contribute to its
class leading ground clearance and ability to overcome obstacles.
Mixing a sporting pace with rough terrain demands a high level
of concentration from the driver. Helping to reduce the driver's
workload, are features like the simple switch activated, servo-controlled
4WD system. Additional traction management is just a hand lever
away - the driver can perform easy on-the-fly adjustments to
front differential lock, via the variable front differential
control lever on the center console. Much like a sport ATV, the
Teryx Sport's rear differential always stays locked, allowing
the Teryx to slide around corners in a classic two-wheel drift
whenever the driver feels like having a little extra fun.
A fast RUV needs equally quick stopping prowess. The Teryx 750
FI 4x4 Sport meets the challenge, utilizing a combination of
dual 200mm discs up front and a sealed wet brake in the rear.
The front brakes are tucked into the wheels for protection from
debris and their 27mm twin-piston calipers are rigid-mounted
for optimum feel and control. The advantage of the sealed rear
brake is most apparent when it can keep working even in the wettest
or muddiest of environments unlike its competition. Its compact
profile further adds to the remarkable amount of ground clearance.
Of course, this substantial sport performance is matched by Kawasaki's
legendary durability and reliability that starts on the ebony
surface - tough scratch resistant Thermo-Plastic Olefin (TPO)
bodywork, that is. A steel skid plate helps shield the Teryx
engine from ride stopping obstacles.
Inside, bucket seats, retractable three-point seat belts, a padded
steering wheel that's positioned low for better control, dual
cup holders and plenty of shoulder and leg room provide a comfortable
driving environment. Standard equipment on all Teryx models,
the multi-function digital meter offers a fuel gauge, hour meter,
clock, odometer, dual trip meters, warning lights and parking
brake indicator.
A 7.4-gallon fuel tank and a 500-pound capacity, gas-assisted
tilting cargo bed mean the Teryx 750 FI 4x4 Sport has the range
and cargo abilities for long-distance fun. A cargo net and tie
down hooks in all four corners keep the goods secure. Its 1300-pound
towing capacity expands those cargo abilities further. The action
doesn't need the sun either thanks to dual 40W headlights showing
the way and dual rear taillights letting it be seen. With such
a cargo-carrying and transportability potential, it is an able
partner for leisure/recreation activities, such as day trips
or camping.
A large selection of authentic Kawasaki Accessories for the 2009
Teryx 750 FI 4x4 Sport Monster Energy are available through Kawasaki
dealers. As with all off-highway vehicle recreation, Kawasaki
encourages RUV drivers to drive responsibly and respect the environment.
