KRX 4 es Live Valve - Comfortable, Capable, Pure Kawasaki

After a few weeks playing in the desert with the new Kawasaki KRX 4, we headed to the Tusher mountains in Utah to get some mountain trail time at nearly 12,000 ft. This gave us a chance to test the comfort, capability, and power of the KRX 4. Check out the video for our thoughts as we wrap up our time with the KRX 4... for now...

I have been thinking about the ES version just for the live valve fox shocks. My two seat KRX with Shock Therapy RIS was fantastic. Nobody has the four seat ES and they dont know when they will get some. So, I just got back from driving to Southern Calif from the Phoenix area and bought a two seat RZR Pro XP Ultimate. I got a deal I couldn't pass up. I have never sat in one or seen one up close until yesterday when I went to get it. So far I am very happy with it. Cant wait to for a trail ride in it. I'm only around 5 miles from Shock Therapy so I will probably head over there to get the RIS done to it. This will be my last side-by-side I purchase, at 66 this is it...

You guys should come to Colorado . We have some great high county rides.

[@DerangedOffRoad]

We totally need to!

[@caddybentley07]

Love these went to Hatfield and McCoy trails and the Kawasaki dominated

[@kash7865]

You mentioned about noise I would be using one for some on road around town driving dirt roads [street legal] leisure riding no real rough stuff wife and I both have back issues like the KRX 4 for the leg room and cab comfort. So would it be too loud for that type of riding just be looking for something quiet with leg room. Have not drove any of the new sxs yet just in the beginning stages thinking about one.

[@DerangedOffRoad]

Honestly all sxs are kinda loud. The best option is to use either a communication device or just ear protectors. With that said I do plenty of riding without that and it doesn’t bother me a ton. When you go on long rides for miles in a day the headsets are where it’s at 💯. -Garrett

What up guys could I ask where your riding? And also love the windshield I bought from you guys for my krx

The trails are up above Beaver Utah on the Tusher mountains near big John flat. Some are part of the Paiute trails system. We LOVE the area! -Joe

[@RCinOC]

Why blow up that spot. I ride my dirtbike all over Ut. Yes, it’s a popular spot. We don’t need anymore sxs up there. Keep them in the deserts and sand dunes . I’m 52 years old and would like to make it home to my family. I’ll be on my crf450rx. I can’t tell you how many close call’s I’ve had with the rental ppl in sxs. At least you guys drive slow. Back to my point. Please don’t blow up Ut. Video all you want. But, loose lips sink ships. We would appreciate it. 🤙

[@jeepslivin]

Ok so for "back east" goes.... Know you break over and ball out with it. Drive one at night in dover ark for 4 hrs ballin and it is a tight trail beast. Used rock slider once to pivot around turn but if you can drive...it will go with confidence

They are Cardo packtalk bold headsets. They’re awesome! Click the link in our description to Rockymountainatvmc and search cardo, you’ll find them. -Joe

[@boblaws9851]

Even a Talon would have ridden smooth on those trails. LOL The true test is when you hit trails like we have here in the Colorado rockies. They will put any suspension to the test and you will find any weaknesses. You can also spend all day running at or above 12,000'. My 2 seat KRX runs just fine at those altitudes, and it's not a light machine the way I have it set up. If you guys ever get out here and need a guide, give me a holler...

[@DerangedOffRoad]

Oh come on don’t spread lies about the Talon. We had some pretty rocky areas though. We would love to get up to Colorado at some point. -Garrett

[@bryanvass1791]

Looking at buying a 50 inch side by side. I live where there is a lot of 50 inch trails. Do you think Kawasaki will build a 50 inch machine

I don’t see one coming in the form of a KRX, but that’s just my opinion. -Garrett

hi guys, could comment on the trailer tie downs you guy are using 🙏 did the track tie down system come with your trailer?

[@DerangedOffRoad]

I put it on myself. I used four ten foot tracks total and bought the straps at harbor freight. Best investment ever to be honest!!

I will need to check for sure, but mine has now rusted at all after almost three years.

Question would the electrical part of the suspension, would it go bad with all the mud /water ?

[@DerangedOffRoad]

It shouldn’t have any issues but anything is possible.

[@vash0046]

@@DerangedOffRoad would you recommend going to the extreme or since it’s electrical it’s always best to stay dry and get wet here and there ??

[@DerangedOffRoad]

I have always been a person to keep my electrical stuff dry as possible. I have never found an issue running in rain and wet conditions lower streams, but I choose to never send my stuff into water over the dash.
