2012 Kawasaki Teryx® 750 FI 4x4 Sport
Bumpy desert two-tracks. Rutted fire roads. Unpredictable backwoods trails. These are the native habitats of the Teryx® 750 FI 4x4 Sport, the hot rod of the Kawasaki Teryx recreation utility vehicle lineup. With its lightweight alloy wheels controlled by high-end, gas-charged shocks, the Teryx offers a superior level of wheel and chassis control, even through rough terrain. That control translates into more four-wheeling fun.

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
Digital Fuel Injection System - The fuel injection system is controlled by a 32-bit ECU 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 conditions
Digital Fuel Injection System - FI system permits easy engine starting at low temperatures and utilizes an Automatic Idle Speed Control and Automatic Fast Idle function to help ensure smooth engine warm up
Digital Fuel Injection System - The high-pressure fuel pump located inside the tank features a unique reservoir chamber at the bottom of the fuel pump that ensures air does not get into the fuel system
Digital Fuel Injection System - Specific Teryx-sized throttle bodies and optimized ignition timing have maximized low and mid-range torque and ensure excellent response at high rpm
Kawasaki Automatic Power-Drive System CVT - Featuring high and low ranges, plus reverse, this advanced continuously variable transmission provides a direct feel from the engine and instantaneous acceleration – ideal characteristics for sport riding
Kawasaki Automatic Power-Drive System CVT - Transmission utilizes a high-grade, super-durable belt designed to handle the high output of the engine. The drive converter shaft is hard chrome-finished for durability
Kawasaki Automatic Power-Drive System CVT - The CVT Belt Protection System prevents tire freewheel, improves rocky terrain performance and reduces belt overloading by adding Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) data to the system
Kawasaki Automatic Power-Drive System CVT - Unnecessary belt wear is minimized with a system that reduces engine speed if the engine operates at high rpm for more than two seconds while the rear wheels are motionless
Kawasaki Automatic Power-Drive System CVT - A large intake duct, located to keep water and debris out, provides plenty of cooling air to the CVT
Kawasaki Automatic Power-Drive System CVT - Heat shielding on the exhaust pipe below the intake duct keeps intake temperature down

Sport-Focused Suspension - Independent rear suspension provides an ideal balance of rider comfort and handling at high speeds
Sport-Focused Suspension - Rear torsion bar helps minimize body roll
Lightweight Aluminum Wheels and Large 26-Inch Tires - Lightweight cast aluminum wheels offer great looks and cut unsprung weight by 2 pounds per wheel
Lightweight Aluminum Wheels and Large 26-Inch Tires - 26-inch Maxxis tires developed specifically for the Teryx help provide great traction and handling
Selectable Four-Wheel-Drive / Variable Front Differential Control - Selecting two or four-wheel drive is as easy as pressing a switch located on the dash; electrically selectable 2WD/4WD system engages instantly
Selectable Four-Wheel-Drive / Variable Front Differential Control - Limited-slip front differential reduces steering effort under normal four-wheel drive operation, while Variable Front Differential Control permits the rider to distribute torque equally to left and right front wheels for maximum traction via a hand lever located between the seats
Selectable Four-Wheel-Drive / Variable Front Differential Control - Rear gear case keeps rear wheels locked and turning together for maximum forward thrust
Wide-Body Chassis - Large-diameter thin-walled tubular steel frame combines high rigidity, light weight and mid-engine placement – a perfect combination for performance riding
Wide-Body Chassis - Tubular cab frame meets SAE J1194, 7.1.1, 7.1.2, 7.4, and 7.5, requirements as a roll-over protective structure (ROPS)
Wide-Body Chassis - Performance-focused suspension is designed for high-performance riding
Wide-Body Chassis - Wide track helps provide a great ride, but unit is narrow enough to fit in a standard pickup truck bed
Wide-Body Chassis - Chassis has 11.6 inches of ground clearance, which strikes a perfect compromise between great low-CG handling and the ability to clear tough off-road obstacles
Wide-Body Chassis - Narrow frame concept maximizes the length of the front and rear suspension’s lower A-arms for excellent road-handling performance and minimal geometry change throughout the suspension’s travel
Wide-Body Chassis - Chassis serves up a near-perfect balance of bump absorption and taut steering
Wide-Body Chassis - A hinged, forward-tilting front hood and headlight assembly highlights aggressive styling and allows quick access to the radiator and front suspension components for easy maintenance and suspension tuning
Wide-Body Chassis - The tilt bed’s frame is engineered with extra rigidity for a high degree of durability
