Kawasaki Brute Force 300 - Back to basics simplicity, and an absolute blast to ride!

[@refiloeisrael6148]

I use this ATV for Field Work in farms and I have to say, it handles so well, great power and durability. It's firm grip allows me to get out of difficult situations and on a dry road, this ATV is a legend. It is indeed a Brute Force

[@Austin-rp6ul]

Can vouch for the reliability and strength of this little bike. Dad bought one about 8 years ago, it's never had any mechanical issues and it's never not started. And it's plenty strong and stout, we've had 250lbs of corn plus me weighing 170 on a good day. Way over the "66lb" rating of the rack.

[@tieoneon1614]

Im 6'1 210lbs. Just picked up a '22 for a winter toy. Absolutley love this atv. The size and weight is perfect, it handles amazing and the suspension is great. Build quality is excellent. The reason I stopped liking atvs was how big and complicated they got, this is the exact opposite and reminds of of the old Bayou/Lakota. Low Range has serious grunt, and for any riding under 20mph it pulls the front wheels up. I could not get it stuck in 6-8" of snow either. Only thing I might add is wheel spacers in the rear to help with stability but like the man said its a hoot to toss this thing around, the sport tires drift easily.

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing your experiences, and thanks for watching!

Bought a 2024 about a month ago. Just had 1st oil change. Impressed with it so far

[@peteg337]

I just bought two in black for my boys for Christmas , gonna pic them up this week. I plan on setting throttle for beginner mode .

[@PeterLoweOne]

Father of the year!! These are awesome! They're going to love them!

[@peteg337]

I picked the 2 of them up friday , First impressions i’m very happy the suspension is very plush and finish of quad overall very nice . castings on the engine is smooth quality finish , i was aware of similar atv available but i liked Kawasaki rear tail lights , front bumper and front light setup . plastics also seemed to be nicer , Kawasaki had same price , 0% for balance , actual on location service location . Great thing is i can govern the speed for my boys .can’t wait to see there faces Christmas morning

[@PeterLoweOne]

@@peteg337 that's awesome! Thanks for sharing! Merry Christmas to you and your family!

[@efrainortiz6192]

My wife has a 2021 and she love it ,is a good atv all around..💚

[@fordhilly2116]

I got a 2023 one of those same color and everything just changed oil and everything in it runs real good

[@PeterLoweOne]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing! I think these 300's are a blast to ride!

[@tieoneon1614]

I just did my first service too. Seems after about 30 miles the motor got stronger after it broke it. It wouldnt rev out very far before, now it pulls up to 50mph

[@rzl07375]

It is a lot more fun than some bigger machines, I got the 750 as well and its fastfor sure but dam these 300 models are a riot. Wanna add some more fun to them? Big gun exhaust muffler, open UNI filter, and Dynojet jet kit. Its like a cvt sport quad. Sounds like a sport quad coming down the trail.

[@PeterLoweOne]

Haha! That's awesome! I love the 300! I agree, they're fun to drive! Isn't that the point? Having something that makes you smile!

[@rzl07375]

@@PeterLoweOne yup fun and cost man, tired of quads being north of 10k.

[@usaf4dbt]

What about the hand controls? Is the brake, and throttle hand controlled? Is there a clutch hand controlled? Is there any foot controls?

[@footballpro5256]

I'm a little concerned about the 2WD and the power. How would you think it would be up hill or in wet conditions?

[@PeterLoweOne]

Yeah, that's fair. I don't think Kawasaki is trying to pretend that this ATV is going to be the number 1 rated off road vehicle as far as it's capability, but I will say this. It's just fun to ride! It's surprisingly capable, it can wag it's rear end, and for most trail riding, it really is great! The light weight does give it a nice feel, and probably enhances it's capability. But if you're finding yourself in areas where you absolutely need 4WD with front lockers, then yes, this unit is going to struggle. I just think that for a lot of people, this will work just fine. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!

[@alittlebitofeverything5090]

I have a 21' brute force 300 and I'm 6'1" 230lbs. It halls ass for a 300 and is great for trail riding. It will climb just about anything wet or dry. It depends what kind of riding you are going to do. It is not for long straight aways/fields high speed driving or deep mud. I ride mine on my property and there's really no place to open it up. I couldn't justify getting the 750 for the trails I ride on along with almost triple the price.

[@donkeyhasweed5479]

I’m struggling to get the rear hub off

[@kimkeller5392]

Would you say it has power steering? Was asked this question. All I know is it steers so easy.

[@herrtomas6729]

You know, I’d really like your job! You get so much fun…… 😊

[@PeterLoweOne]

I wouldn't do well sitting in a cubicle! Most of the jobs that I've had throughout my life are jobs that I've pitched to various employers. Now that I'm self employed, I get to really narrow down to doing only the fun stuff! 🙂 Besides, if I wasn't having fun, nobody would watch!! It's part of the job!

[@JodyAikens]

Is there away to make it go slow for my daughter. She doesn't need to be going that fast yet

[@SuperErniejr]

This is an awesome unit

[@PeterLoweOne]

It really is! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

[@hal511bm]

Very nice. Thank you.

[@PeterLoweOne]

Thanks for watching!!

[@hal511bm]

@@PeterLoweOne I was very much enjoyable. Thank you again.

[@ann-mariegoddard4187]

My daughter has a brut force 300, she has friends over riding in the fall, went to take it out today and it's missing the tie that runs from the gas tank, it won't start, is the missing tube the problem? Where can I get one?

[@PeterLoweOne]

I wouldn't be able to diagnose things in the comments section. I would try your local Kawasaki dealer. They should be able to help.

[@doobyboy21]

If this engine is as reliable as the bayou 300 I'd buy it no questions asked !

[@PeterLoweOne]

I've heard great things about the reliability of this engine!

[@brianguillot3403]

Is the rear shock adjustable ? Can I make it stiffer ?

[@PeterLoweOne]

It's got some preload adjustment.

[@markdecker6078]

a lil rocket ship..........got a 24 so far i dig it

[@kennethdeas1955]

Is it big enough for a 250 lb 6 foot male?

[@PeterLoweOne]

I'm about 175 and the same height. It's great for me. It has enough power to move you around well for sure, but I'm not sure how much the suspension is built to handle. It will sit lower with you on it than me.

[@paymethanks]

100% my brother rides his like nothing he's 6'2, 275 and it's perfect

[@alittlebitofeverything5090]

Absolutely, I was worried about that when I bought mine. I'm 6'1" 230lbs and no issues with it.

[@franciscodjr6333]

is it automatic transmissio or manual

[@PeterLoweOne]

It's automatic.

[@TuranRuis-df4zn]

How do you turn it on

[@PeterLoweOne]

Turn the key. Press the start button.

[@Chaseolivier_productions]

I have this quad and if you watch my videos, it kinda gets destroyed but the hitch bends easily and they need to put beefier shocks. If my dad were to sit on it it would almost max out the shock so 2025. Please have a better shock.

[@lorryx8829]

is it manual or automatic?

[@alittlebitofeverything5090]

Automatic, Low, High, Neutral, Reverse

[@Chaseolivier_productions]

And the bumper needs to be beefier

[@chasin21]

Lol cute atv, it's like an 750s lil son xd

[@herrtomas6729]

Hi

[@PeterLoweOne]

You're first today!!

[@Slayer11-c3g]

it's not 300cc

[@PeterLoweOne]

Ok, 271. You understand that I'm calling it by its name, and I round like I do with almost every other unit that I review, as does Kawasaki with it's naming conventions.

[@paymethanks]

just picked up two 23's and Jesus they're such a freaking blast to ride

[@PeterLoweOne]

Haha! I've been saying this for a while! Thanks for sharing!!
