2010 KAWASAKI TERYX™ 750 FI 4×4 SPORT

Detail upgrades, high-performance suspension and aluminum wheels

The Teryx™ 750 FI 4×4 Sport recreation utility vehicle adds upgraded, fully adjustable, high performance suspension components and lightweight cast aluminum wheels to the proven Teryx platform. The result is a dominating combination of off-road performance and practicality. For 2010, the Teryx Sport features updated styling for a more aggressive appearance, a new forward-tilting hinged front hood for easier access to the front suspension and radiator, a new more rigid tilt bed frame that helps prevent warping of the cargo box, and a new larger radiator fan that improves cooling efficiency.

What’s New for 2010

  • Revised styling provides a more aggressive appearance for the front end
  • New hinged, forward-tilting front hood simplifies access to the front suspension and radiator
  • Upgraded tilt bed frame is more rigid to help prevent warping of the cargo box
  • New larger radiator fan improves cooling efficiency

Key Teryx Sport Features

  • Liquid-cooled, 749cc SOHC, 4-valve, fuel-injected, 90-degree V-twin engine provides excellent power with a distinctive V-twin sound
  • Ample torque output contributes to the Teryx Sport’s superb acceleration and allows powerslides on command
  • The 90° V-Twin configuration offers perfect primary balance, resulting in low engine vibration
  • Electronically controlled Kawasaki Engine Brake Control helps to slow the RUV on steep descents
  • Mid-ship engine placement provides optimum front/rear balance for maximum cornering performance
  • Radiator is placed high in the chassis for better protection against mud and debris
  • Digital fuel injection enhances throttle response, automatically adjusts for changes in temperature and altitude, and permits easy engine starting
  • Continuously Variable Transmission features high and low ranges, reverse gear, a very direct feel from the engine, and instantaneous acceleration – ideal characteristics for sport riding
  • 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
  • Two- or four-wheel-drive operation, selectable by pressing a dash-mounted switch
  • Wide track chassis design helps enhance vehicle stability
  • Large-diameter thin-walled tubular steel frame offers high rigidity – a perfect base for performance riding – and meets SAE requirements as a roll-over protective structure (ROPS)
  • Performance-focused suspension designed for high-speed operation over varying terrain
  • Chassis has 11.6 inches of ground clearance for clearing tough off-road obstacles
  • Sport ATV inspired suspension features a narrow frame concept to maximize the length of the front and rear suspension’s lower A-arms, contributing to the Teryx’s excellent handling traits
  • Fully-adjustable shocks allow tuning of spring preload, compression and rebound damping
  • Front and rear shocks feature piggy-back reservoirs, further reducing the tendency of oil to froth under hard conditions
  • Cast and polished aluminum wheels offer reduced unsprung weight – by about two pounds each – and increased strength over a standard Teryx’s steel wheels, and add to the Sport model’s appearance
  • Dual front 200mm disc brakes gripped by 27mm twin-piston calipers and Kawasaki’s sealed, oil-bathed, multi-disc rear brake system provide maximum stopping power in all conditions
  • Large 26-inch MAXXIS tires were specially developed for the Teryx to maximize forward traction while offering excellent control characteristics for aggressive cornering and sliding
  • Gas-assisted tilting cargo bed offers substantial cargo room, and features a 500 lb. capacity, tie down hooks in all four corners, and standard cargo net
  • Plenty of shoulder and legroom to comfortably accommodate two adults
  • Multi function display is standard on all Teryx models, and includes a digital speedometer, clock, dual trip meters, digital fuel gauge, plus 2WD/4WD indicator, water temperature and fuel injection warning indicators
  • Bodywork is made of high-gloss scratch-resistant Thermo-Plastic Olefin
  • Steel floor boards and engine guards for maximum protection
  • Battery and electric parts are located high in the chassis, out of the way of water and mud
  • Large 7.4 gal. (28L) fuel tank lets the fun continue for a long time between fill-ups
  • The Teryx Sport is compact enough to fit in the bed of most full-size pickup trucks
