It's Official

Kawasaki's site says 2012 brings EPS but it's not a 850. But still available in black!

Quite expensive too...

BRUTE

are you ordering one today G Bob??

At that price he can get one for he and Jo

It surprised me. I don't really know why it did - but it did! I bought my 08 in Nov of 07 for $8026 or so out the door (7.25% nc tax in there), with a winch!

That is quite a jump.

It seems lately all the "big" quads have been creeping up $400-$600 per year.

Plus power steering is ~ $600 option on the Grizzlies over a non- PS.

The prices of the new Yamaha's are also scary compared to my 2007 model year.

Get the checkbook out....

I like the look of the Metallic Tungsten Gray (SE) model ~ shiney wheels

Some of the new stuff

• Kawasaki’s high-grade Electric Power Steering (EPS) system offers both enhanced handling and increased ride comfort.
• Upgraded fuel injected 90-degree 749cc V-twin Engine offers more power and enhanced low-rpm performance
• New six-spoke cast aluminum wheels replace the old plain steel units and make a significant styling contribution while offering a more premium image
• Re-styled bodywork (hood, bumper, fenders and headlight surrounds) are key elements of the Brute Force 750’s new wide and rugged design
• Upgraded cargo racks feature stronger 1” tubing that is over 25% larger in diameter than the previous versions and integrated tie-down hook loops for added convenience
• New instrumentation is easier to read at a glance and features a multi-purpose digital display with speedometer, odometer, dual trip meters, fuel gauge, engine temp, clock, hour meter, and 2WD/4WD icon, plus indicator lamps for EPS, neutral, reverse, belt and oil pressure
• New stronger double-cradle frame features additional reinforcement at critical points for increased ride comfort and enhanced ability to absorb shocks when sport riding on rough terrain

I like the front end on mine better the dule lights looked nice

Yeah I like my dual lights better. Guess at that price I'll just have to hang on to my old dog

We'll let our Brutes grow older together Bob!

Nice looking machine. The price. Yikes! It's our own fault partly, I guess. We want all the ginger bread but still want it to cost the same as the basic quad we bought ten years ago. All those cool acronyms~~ EFI, EPS, IRS, ESP, GYC ...~~ cost big bucks. I doubt any of us would want to go back to riding a 300 Fourtrax. Or even 450 Forman's (cough!!). Can you imagine stepping off your current day plushmobile and swapping it out for a straight axel no frills yesteryear quad? But...10 Grand...Ouch!
