Shock therapy said multiple time that the krx suspension geometric was very good, need lite valving and a set of good spring to be excellent. If they throw 230hp this why be a fricking BEAST.
Kawi could easily use their 1500CC platform which is a great motor. Bullet proof in their Jetski line naturally aspirated. The Ultra 310 which is supercharged is 310hp. I don't think they would go that far. But as others have said, you need to be able to put the HP to the ground in a controllable manner.
You would take a 4 cylinder boosted krx over a pro r!? Lmfao. Your supposed to build the car around the motor not build the car and slap a bigger motor in it later. If its a totally new car from the ground up then maybe I can get on board with what your saying.
I thought my RS1 had pretty good suspension until I rode in my buddies KRX. I'm planning on selling my RS1 and getting either a Talon(for reliability) or a KRX for comfort and price.
I love my Talon. My friends have faster cars, but in the tight technical stuff we often ride in I stay ahead of them most of the time. And it's spent a LOT less time broken/being repaired than my friend's Maverick. I've replaced nothing but fluids and filters. I find the Talon more exhilarating than their cars, but they prefer theirs. I love going into a turn, dropping a few gears and shifting my way out on the throttle. Rock crawling and other slow technical stuff is much easier in the Talon because of the better visibility. When I get in my buddy's RZR TurboR it feels like I've stepped into a full size pickup.
Her is a former KRX owner, I also own a RZR Turbo S, sold the KRX. Buzzy engine, needs a new power plant for sure. Dust is a major major issue with the KRX, but most of all needs a new power plant and a lot more power.
I’ve got 2023 KRX @3500 miles broke in Sandhollow great crawler and trail machine. Like everyone says no power and when gets hot no throttle response just bog out . People tried billet fuel rails, fuel pumps , ECU change you name it . You just can’t get enough fuel to rail with stock machine .
I sank my rzr and pulled it out with a Kawasaki with 35s on it. We went through the deepest and roughest terrain dragging mine out and it just walked through it like it was nothing, plus he did it all in just 2 wheel drive.
I've owned a KRX since they came out. Just last spring I traded my 2020 for a 2023 "ES" model with the live valve suspension. I've been suspecting for over a year that the H2 motor would end up in the KRX. Now I have to get ready to trade up again... except I'm not sure I can justify $40k+ for a toy.
I will also add in, I love my krx, love the ride, how it handles rough stuff and how I don’t get feedback in the wheel but holy hell is it underpowered.
My only complaint is the power but on the rough wind rock trails I ride you can’t get over 20 mph anyways most the time it’s a snails speed on the trails
You know I am a hard core kawasaki person! I've always wanted a krx, but only have a 800, I hope I can afford one of these 4 cylinder rides when they come out. For I lime to be able to compete with can am and the rzr. I live in Illinois but go to Missouri to compete in the races that Missouri Mudders puts on, but get my rear handed to me all the time....lol would love to be able to actually be able to have a chance in winning in a krx for once. If kawasaki does come out with what you say they are. I'm going to try like heck to get one for the events in 2024.
Even just a naturally aspirated 4 cylinder. I never understood why Kawasaki didn't use one of their sport bike engines in their SXS. The ZX1400 makes around 200hp. I wouldn't really want the weight, heat, or complications of a supercharger. Just make it a badass NA engine.
Sxs are regulated to be topped out at 1000 cc. Anything over that puts it in a different class of vehicle. I think that they would be required to meet car standards for everything if they did do that, such as turn signals license plate, the whole nine yards. It would be a headache for the manufacturers to get qualified as a car company to be able to sell them. But if you want to do a swap out yourself, there's nothing stopping you. But you might have to keep it on closed courses to avoid having to make it a street legal buggy.
@@Upliftyourbrothers couldn't tell you accept Polaris is already classified for road vehicles. Probably why you have to pay new car prices for these toys. And the law may have changed recently, or something like that. All I know is that used to be the reason you couldn't get anything bigger from the factories for years. I also know that these things are way over priced. But whatever the reason for it I stand corrected.
I'd consider jumping off the Polaris ship to Kawi if they stepped up the performance package to a true performance car. Don't get me wrong, I agree this is a good car for average trail riding/rock crawling out of the box. I hope Kawi adds to their line up, a car that competes directly with the Polaris Pro/Turbo R and Can Am X3 performance cars.
Genius. We'll just put a big ol' raised scoop blower on top of that engine and suck-up all the desert sand from Glamis to St. Anthony. Herman Munster would be proud.
I spent a day in a KRX in Moab, at the time I had a YXZ and I could not wait to get back in my YXZ. They do rock crawl, but it was hot inside and lots of squeaks and rattles. I would not hold my breath until you see a 4 cylinder in a KRX. The Japanese manufactures are all tight lipped on the new stuff, so until it is released it is not real.
Depends on how much time quick rides are up and down power line More time go to the track Follow us on Facebook if you would like to come on rides with us
Wonder how a high boost krx would hand (with the bigger pully from kraftwerks) just wish the krx was faster in general so I freakin hope they bring that motor over
Motorcycle engine like that would have to be drastically redone to effectively get low end torque and reliability. More usable torque would be better in a 3 cylinder, 4 cylinder would be smoother but enough low-end. They definitely got enough real-estate for something good
U want Cable wearing them replacement cable or hydraulic shifters which one u prefer?. I preferred hydraulic powered so smooth just good plumbing that lasts longer than cable.
The SxS market will have to all go 4 cylinder. I love my 2019 Talon. I could only imagine a CBR 1000 200 plus HP motor with the Duel Clutch transmission. Kawasaki, Honda and Yamaha would crush Polaris and Can-Am of their high horse.
@@cjcallen5974 well as of right now the most powerful X3 SxS is built by Whalen Speed. It lays down 500 WHP. It has compound turbo chargers. Its built for drag racing only and is unable to be used on the trails.
check out evolution powersports silver x3 m3 car it is over 800hp, and is mainly a sand drag car, but can still be driven around. it will destroy the whalen car. not doging the whalen car as it is super sick as well but the evo car is something else
@@cjcallen5974 I’ll have to check that out, think you. Someone else said something about a X3 but I couldn’t find it. Every time I look up world record holder SxS, most powerful SxS, Whalen keeps pulling up. I’ll look up that X3. It sounds sick.
And when is this supposed to happen?! This was put out almost half a year ago, and they just released the 2024s with zero differences. So when are they putting the 4 cylinder inline supercharged engine in the krx?!
I mean supercharger and keep it geared low for woods riding. Not everyone wants to go play in the sand. Desert riding is boring as fuck. I need woods and full throttle hill bombs.
I've been outta the game since around 06 when sxs's we're really getting popular. Kawasaki was almost unbeatable then and I grew up on them from the early eighties. Always a power house so I won't give up on em to up the ante. Sounds like they've been outta the game for a while!.
@@UTV-A pretty sure they were the first in the game with the mule, which was pretty much for farmers and everyone talked about how slow they were. They CAN make it happen.... And will.
@@traestuart384not sure if they were first or the John deere gator was first, but the mule wasn't really useful at all in any kind of mudd. All the ranches around were eager to switch to Polaris when the ranger first hit the market though. They pretty much used them for everything out the barn lots and kept the mules on solid ground there.
@@UTV-A given you couldn't keep a straight face in the first 10 seconds i don't think you got anyone 😂.. we'll have to see what the deal is with kawi. Honda has the engines in F1 and street bikes if they wanted to they could really be a competitor.
Paid cash for a new KRX 1000, few mods, lots of extras. No offense, but the Pro cannot do what the KRX does. Neither can the X3, the Talon, or the YXZ. Now they are releasing a KRX HO beast? Who do I need to hunt down at Kawasaki?
I purchased a new 2021 KRX 1000 in the fall of 2020. The only positive trait this car has is the ride. Overall it is a bloated pig! Too heavy to move itself around! Transmission went south at 400 miles, which took almost a year and two dealers to get it going again! It is the hottest and the dirtiest machine you will find! At only 2000 miles the clutch is shot and the intermediate driveline bearings screaming!. Our last ride was a 180 mile day ride and it used almost 2 quarts of oil! The KRX is unproven garbage and you better check the reviews on the Kraftworks blower and all the drive problems people are having with them. My advice is to stay with a tried and true brands. Don't provide Kawasaki with their R&D at your expense!
So much for the sport sxs from Kawasaki. 😂 Tired of waiting, plenty of other options. They have the baddest street bike and the most pathetic “sport” sxs. 😂. “You’re not going to win drag races”. No kidding, you just got gapped by 20 school buses before you even left the starting line.
Katie stole most designs from polaris.... not the other way around! Ha ha ha and the krx 4 seat came out before the pro r so his other statement about the guys that had both was misinformed
Shock therapy said multiple time that the krx suspension geometric was very good, need lite valving and a set of good spring to be excellent. If they throw 230hp this why be a fricking BEAST.
Havasu here.. love the way people are able to just go crank it up!.. keep 'em going fast!.
The krx and the supercharged jet ski are made in the same building. Been delivering Eaton superchargers there for years.
This better not be a belt 😤 DCT all the way
Kawi could easily use their 1500CC platform which is a great motor. Bullet proof in their Jetski line naturally aspirated. The Ultra 310 which is supercharged is 310hp. I don't think they would go that far. But as others have said, you need to be able to put the HP to the ground in a controllable manner.
Kawasaki can throw th8s motor in a Vulcan SS
rov is limited to 999 cc. different set of standards and rules.
Well let’s see. The Kawasaki H2 motorcycle has a inline 4, 310 HP and 121.5 lb-ft or torque engine in it. That would fit nicely in a KRX.
I’d be excited to see it with 200hp. It’s an excellent car. Just slow as a snail.
Very excited too see what Kawi has up its sleeve. I would take a 4 cyl SC over any of the current offerings.
If all of these parts come true I think it will be the best option
You would take a 4 cylinder boosted krx over a pro r!? Lmfao. Your supposed to build the car around the motor not build the car and slap a bigger motor in it later. If its a totally new car from the ground up then maybe I can get on board with what your saying.
PRO R is a big step to try to compete against
@@motorcyclestig8539 yes they would have to work on suspension for sure too

You just can’t get enough fuel to rail with stock machine .
Yep
That odd as kawasaki list 2024 as a parallel twin In fact when I listen to this it even sounds like a parallel twin
The h2 engine would be epic
For sure
I owned a h2 it was nice but I like my bmw s1000rr better
And the price point goes up and up and up
That’s nice ,there is a lot of people waiting for a Brute Force 1000 to be released.
I sank my rzr and pulled it out with a Kawasaki with 35s on it. We went through the deepest and roughest terrain dragging mine out and it just walked through it like it was nothing, plus he did it all in just 2 wheel drive.
Nice it’s great for that riding we just don’t get much mud stuff here. Our need is more speed and suspension is key here
4 cylinder engine is the best choice
Totally down with all that !
What cage is on this car? Looks like it was edited out.
Suspension breaking and the damn axle snapping. Plus the boots over the axles. These are problems I have. Would like to see a better set up there.
I've owned a KRX since they came out. Just last spring I traded my 2020 for a 2023 "ES" model with the live valve suspension.

Ya I’m worried it’ll be the most expensive one
I couldn’t imagine my Talon without suicide doors. Sure is nice to open the doors sometimes while driving to let all that cool air in.
I will also add in, I love my krx, love the ride, how it handles rough stuff and how I don’t get feedback in the wheel but holy hell is it underpowered.

We want DCT
Get Honda Talon they built with it like a car hydraulic that had.
Give me a KRX with 200 or more HP and I’ll ditch Polaris

Check in October, sounds like that’s when we’ll find out!

Kawasaki and Honda have the technology to dominate the SxS industry. Look at their motor cycle engines. They can easily put those engines in a SxS.

If they'd put the bike motor in with its transmission, or a DCT, I don't think I could keep myself from buying it. CVTs work, but I find them boring.
Why do need this on trails keep it in the desert I’ll take my rmax any day still does 75mph no need for turbos or super chargers plenty get up and go

The Pro R is a Bikeman Stage 3 kit
Can always put the 116 hp ridge motor in there and gain a horse.
