I rode a 2010 Kawasaki 750 Brute Force yesterday - Honda Foreman Forums : Rubicon, Rincon, Rancher and Recon Forum

I went for ride yesterday and my friend gave me a (almost) new 2010 Kawasaki 750 Brute Force to ride.

I did like the power and the engine braking. Throttle response and torque is impressive. I think the transmission, clutch or what ever it is whines way too much, it sounds like a turbo winding up and a big old Cat. There is tons of heat coming from both sides and it warmed my legs a lot more than I cared for. At speed it nose dives a bit too much for me going into corners but I think the shocks were set on the softest setting, and the ignition key is in a real stupid place. I did like all the little storage places, one right there for my camera. And I didn't care for the shift gate either. I never needed to lock the front end but I do like the idea that you control how "locked" it is.

Did I mention that ALL RZRs don't have a clock in the instrument cluster?? How stupid is that??

Here's a couple of short videos from my ride today. One was riding a trail, one was when I got caught in a hail storm and the last one is what I enjoyed most about the 2010 Kawasaki 750 Brute Force while riding it out on the Paiute Trails. (well on a county road LOL)

Sorry for the poor sound quality in the last video, all you can hear is the wind.

It was also the first time on this road for me so I had to be a little cautious, I about missed one of the turns.

After riding my Rubicon for 13,000 miles I find belt driven ATVs weird.
