Product description
The Only High-Performance V-Twin Powered RUVLiquid-cooled, 749cc SOHC, 4-valve, fuel-injected, 90-degree V-twin engine is the most powerful engine in its class
Ample torque output from the oversquare 85 x 66 mm bore and stroke engine contributes to the Teryxs superb acceleration and allows powerslides on command
The 90 V-Twin configuration offers perfect primary balance, resulting in low engine vibration
Aluminum cylinders are Electrofusion-plated for light weight, long wear and excellent heat dispersion
Engine can be started in any gear when the brakes are applied
Electronically controlled Kawasaki Engine Brake Control helps to slow the RUV when traversing steep down hills
Positioned mid-ship for optimum front/rear balance good for power slides and cornering control
Ducts located by the cargo bed direct cooling air to the engine
To maintain the ideal engine oil pressure the oil level was raised and the crankcase breather room and the area around the oil pump were revised
New top piston ring with revised twist angle and reduced end gap, and the shape of breather room in the generator cover was changed to decrease the oil loss
Radiator is compact and placed high in the chassis for better protection against mud and debris
New Digital Fuel Injection systemHigh output 750cc twin engine now has digital fuel injection, which enhances throttle response and automatically adjusts for changes in temperature and altitude
The fuel injection system (controlled by a 32-bit CPU) 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
Instantaneous fuel delivery from the fuel injection makes its response sharper than ever
FI system permits easy engine starting at low temperature and utilizes an Automatic Idle Speed Control and Automatic Fast Idle function to ensure a smooth engine warm up
The 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
Specific Teryx-sized throttle bodies and revised ignition timing have increased low and mid-range torque as well as improved response at higher rpm
Revised ignition timing when in reverse combined with low-speed operation and deceleration FI settings better enable the engine to deal with increased moisture when driving in shallow water
Improved Continuously Variable TransmissionFeaturing high and low ranges, plus reverse, the CVT provides a very direct feel from the engine, and instantaneous acceleration ideal characteristics for sport riding
Transmission utilizes a high-grade belt thats highly durable and designed to handle the high output of the engine
The CVT Belt Protection System better prevents tire freewheel, has upgraded rock section performance and less belt overloading by adding Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) data into the system
For better protection against water entry, the intake and exhaust ducts were changed, with the new exhaust duct opening located higher and the revised intake duct flowing more air to the CVT for better cooling
Intake temperature reduced with heat shielding on the exhaust pipe below the intake duct
New Airbox designIncreasing air cleaner box volume and changing the ducting shape and length lowered the noise level near riders heads
Selectable Four-wheel-drive / Variable Front Differential ControlRider can select twoor four-wheel-drive operation by pressing a switch located on the dash
Electrically selectable 2WD/4WD system engages instantly
Limited-slip front differential reduces steering effort under normal four-wheel drive operation, while Variable Front Differential Control permits rider to distribute torque equally to left and right front wheels for maximum traction via a hand lever located between the seats
Rear wheels are locked and always turning together for cornering control
Wide-body ChassisLarge-diameter thin-walled tubular steel frame offers high rigidity a perfect base for performance riding
Meets SAE requirements as a roll-over protective structure (ROPS)
First with sport performance-focused suspension low-speed comfort not a main design priority
Wide track helps provide additional stability
Chassis has 11.7 inches of ground clearance for clearing tough off-road obstacles
Utilizes the sport ATV long dual front A-arm suspension and narrow frame concept to maximize the length of the front and rear suspensions lower A-arms, contributing to excellent road-handling performance
Chassis offers the right balance of bump absorption while limiting understeer
Able to tackle corners in either a drift or grip style and operate beyond the limits of its rivals
Sport-focused SuspensionHigh-performance, single-chamber, adjustable gas-charged Kayaba shocks offer excellent fade-resistant damping performance, even in hard conditions, while providing 7.5 inches of travel
Independent rear suspension provides the best balance of rider comfort and handling at high speeds, and 7.5 inches of travel
The adjustable gas-charged Kayaba rear shocks feature piggy-back reservoirs, further reducing the tendency of oil to froth under hard conditions
Both front and rear shocks are preload-adjustable
Increased rear suspension damping and compression force and decreased the stabilizer stiffness contribute to improved ride quality
High-performance BrakesDual front 200mm disc brakes gripped by 27mm twin-piston calipers and Kawasakis sealed, oil-bathed, multi-disc rear brake system provide maximum stopping power in all conditions
The compact size of the rear brake design contributes to a favorable ground clearance
The front discs are recessed in wheels for protection from debris, while the rigid-mount calipers deliver enhanced brake feel and increased control
Large 26-inch TiresThe 26-inch MAXXIS tires specially developed for the Teryx maximize forward traction while offering excellent control characteristics for both aggressive cornering and sliding
Mounted on 12-inch rims, the largest tires available in the RUV category provide good rough terrain performance and obstacle clearance
Cargo CapabilityCargo bed offers substantial carrying capacity with a 500 lb capacity, tie down hooks in all four corners, standard cargo net and sizeable dimensions
Gas-assisted tilting cargo bed facilitates dumping cargo and is now a standard feature on all Teryx models
ErgonomicsPlenty of shoulder and legroom to comfortably accommodate two adults
Form-fitting bucket seats and retractable three-point seatbelts hold rider and passenger firmly in place
Steering wheel positioned low for optimum control when sport riding
Upgraded Multi-Function DisplayNow standard on all models, it includes a digital speedometer, clock, dual trip meters plus 2WD/4WD indicator, water temperature and fuel injection warning indicators
New for 09 features include digital fuel gauge and parking brake indicator
Additional indicator lamps include CVT belt warning, neutral, reverse and low oil pressure warning
BodyworkRevised rear mud guard shape
Body work is made of high-gloss scratch-resistant Thermo-Plastic Olefin
Steel floor boards and engine guards for maximum protection
Battery and electric parts located higher, further out of the way of water and mud
Revised rear mud guard offers increased mud protection
