Introduction
The Versatile, Reliable RUV for
Work or Play
With its wide range of capabilties, the Teryx® 750 FI
4x4 recreation utility vehicle is the perfect companion for work
and play. Work chores highlight the Teryx engine's class-leading
power and torque, while riders will appreciate the enhanced throttle
response and optimal performance of the digital fuel injection
(DFI®) as they blast down local trails. The fun, reliable
Teryx proves to be a gratifying ride.
The Teryx's smooth, fuel-injected 749cc V-twin engine produces
a prodigious amount of torque, while its digital fuel injection
system automatically adjusts to match changing conditions. And
its sport-tuned wide-body chassis offers a wide track that helps
provide a stable ride, but still allows the RUV to fit into a
standard pickup bed.
Durable and reliable power is the name of the RUV game, and nobody
can touch the Teryx's 749cc 90-degree 8-valve V-twin. This engine
is not only plenty powerful, it's 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. Cooling
system mods made last year a larger cooling fan for more
airflow and a larger diameter hose for more coolant flow
make the engine even more reliable.
The Teryx's advanced digital fuel-injection system includes functions
for automatic altitude 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. Also, an ignition
cut-out won't allow the Teryx to be ridden away when the parking
brake is engaged. The clever braking system protection 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 packaged within
an advanced chassis that's narrow enough to navigate most 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. The upper frame adds roll-over protection,
and there's 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, taking you practically
anywhere you want to go. A cockpit-adjustable variable front
differential control even lets you fine-tune front-end traction
for slick or tricky terrain.
Long-travel four-wheel independent suspension, adjustable Kayaba
gas-charged shocks at all four corners, a rear stabilizer bar
and mid-ship engine placement all work together to tame tough
trails, with a high-performance long A-arm double-wishbone suspension
design that reduces camber changes for sharp steering and excellent
wheel control 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 while driving down hills. Specially designed 26-inch
Maxxis tires designed specifically for the Teryx are the final
ingredient in its amazingly agile and stable handling characteristics.
A large selection of authentic Kawasaki Accessories are available
through Kelly's Kawasaki for the 2012 Teryx 750 FI 4x4. As with
all off-highway vehicle recreation, Kawasaki encourages RUV drivers
to drive responsibly and to respect the environment.

preventing riding with the parking brake on
Digital Fuel Injection system
· Digital fuel injection enhances throttle response
and automatically adjusts for changes in temperature and elevation
for optimum performance in a wide range of environments
· The fuel injection system is controlled by a 32-bit
CPU and continually monitors coolant temperature, air intake
temperature, throttle position, air intake pressure, vehicle
speed and crankshaft angle to automatically meter out the ideal
amount of fuel via two 34mm throttle bodies for extremely stable
power delivery regardless of the conditions
· FI system permits easy engine starting at low temperature
and utilizes an Automatic Idle Speed Control and Automatic Fast
Idle function to ensure smooth engine warm up
· High-pressure fuel pump located inside the tank features
a unique reservoir chamber at the bottom of the fuel pump to
ensure air does not get into the fuel system

timing maximize low and mid-range power and high rpm response
Kawasaki Automatic Power-Drive System CVT
· Featuring high and low ranges, plus reverse, the
continuously variable transmission provides a direct feel from
the engine and instantaneous acceleration ideal characteristics
for sportier riding
· Transmission utilizes a high-grade, super-durable Kevlar-impregnated
belt designed to handle the engine's prodigious output. The drive
converter shaft is hard chrome-finished for durability
· The CVT Belt Protection System prevents tire freewheel,
improves rocky terrain performance and reduces belt overloading
by adding Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) data into the system
· Unnecessary belt wear is minimized by a system that
reduces engine speed if the engine operates at high rpm for more
than two seconds while the rear wheels are motionless.
· A large CVT intake duct, located to keep water and debris
out, provides plenty of cooling air to the transmission
· Heat shielding on the exhaust pipe below the intake
duct minimizes intake temperature

and rear suspension's lower A-arms for excellent road handling
performance and minimal geometry changes throughout the suspension's
travel
· Chassis serves up a near-perfect balance of bump absorption
and steering control
· The tilt bed's frame is highly rigid for added durability
· Inset headlights complement the modern, aggressive styling
· Hinged, forward-tilting front hood enforces aggressive
styling and allows quick access to the radiator and front suspension
components for easier maintenance and suspension tuning
Sport-focused Suspension
· High-performance, single-chamber, preload-adjustable
gas-charged Kayaba shocks provide excellent fade-resistant damping
performance in the toughest conditions, while providing 7.5 inches
of plush, controlled wheel travel
· Independent rear suspension provides the best balance
of rider comfort and handling at high speeds, along with 7.5
inches of sport-tuned wheel travel.
· The preload-adjustable gas-charged Kayaba rear shocks
feature piggyback reservoirs, further reducing the tendency of
oil to froth under hard conditions, while a torsion bar out back
helps keep body roll to a minimum
High-performance Brakes
· Dual front 200mm disc brakes gripped by rigid-mount
27mm twin-piston calipers provide powerful, fade-free braking
and solid feel. Discs are tucked inside the wheels where they're
protected from debris
