The KFX 700 Engine is a familiar liquid cooled four stroke V-twin, single overhead cam design with four valves per cylinder and wet sump lubrication. Also included are two Keihin downdraft carburetors and tuning designed to provide a wide torque curve for power across the entire rpm range. Who needs a motorcycle for raw power ?!

The KFX700 ATV also comes in traditional Kawasaki green if you’re a diehard team green fanatic. Kawasaki has clearly been paying attention to the ATV racing scene as well as can be told by the fact that the 2009 KFX 700 sports a racing style chassis design made popular by many GNCC ATV racers. Do you recognize the team green Kawasaki beast in these pictures?
