I am a tour guide and use 5 of these machines, just started the fourth season on brutal rocky rugged terrain. Most of the vehicles are pushing 6000 miles, i can give you a laundry list of all the weak points.... 1) EVERY exhaust manifold has cracked and been welded 2) The door latch mechanism gets dirt in them and doors wont close. 3) Coolant fans are garbage we lost a motor over that. 4) Rear CV axel goes, good luck replacing them. Had to send it back to the dealership and they drilled and threaded the case like a clutch puller. 4) primary clutches were all done around 4000 miles 5) seat rails need to be lubed constantly or they freeze 6) every unit started consuming oil after 4000 miles 7) All the steering racks have failed and been replaced. 8) We replace all the tierods, bushings, brakes every season. These machines get washed at the end of every day before they are parked. Not a Kawasaki hater just a list of things to look for, all brands have a list im sure.
Love my 2020 KRX. I've got 6K miles, not kilometers, on mine, all high desert (rock, jeep trails, washes) and some road miles. I've gone through clutch weights and tires but nothing else. She's a goat in the rocks! It's my first SxS and I'm very happy with it. I've learned a lot about SxS's since I purchased the KRX and if I could do it all over knowing what I know now, I would still choose the KRX. I hope to get many more miles out of her.
You have just confirmed my opinions about the KRX as my lady and I are now older and not into holding my beer,...watch this brand of riding. I live in Northern Calif. with thousands of miles of logging, mining, and abandoned logging railroad beds and I would not go in a mud bog if you paid me
Glad i could give some insight. At the end of the day this isnt the machine to run at 90+ all day but if you need something that will cruise trails at 30 its definitely a contender
I've been eyeing these units for a few months. Seems like the way to go. Drove one around the dealer lot last weekend. Loved it. Only thing I noticed on 2 different ones (I took the base and the trail for a quick spin) is that when I turned switch from 2wd to 4wd the display did not show it instantly. Didn't matter if I stopped, L, H, N, at a very slow crawl. I did hear the actuator every time I switched it and I think it was actually engaging and disengaging properly. Almost seemed like there was a "lag" on the dash.....it would finally display it properly after rolling along a few feet it seemed.
Makes sense that the light only came on once it was fully engaged. I know the diff lock will only come on once you roll a few feet to let the wheels sync with each other.
Good to see that Kawasaki’s back in the game of building good reliable machines the Teryx was an absolute indestructible side-by-side and now I see the KRX is right there with it. They really lost a lot of business when they had so many engine failure’s on their brute force quads, and the original Teryx side-by-sides. As far as speed goes, I think people are playing Russian roulette when they’re driving fast like that on the trail. You’re hearing more and more stories of sticks going through or making their way through the door or the firewall or whatever and killing people are hurting them seriously. That kind of speed has no place in the bush and it’s disappointing because years ago when I had my dog, she would run beside my machine or behind it or sometimes in front these days with the way the machines are being so fast and the way everybody’s driving them I would never even think of having my dog running on the trail like that. It will be interesting to see what this new Kawasaki is that’s coming out “the Ridge” but looks like it’s going to be a big four seater, luxurious station wagon. It would be nice if they would upgrade the Teryx4 keeping all the reliability, but making it quieter.
No argument there that kind of speed lends itself towards accidents. Im excited to see what the new ridge looks like even if it is a big boat for comfort!
Great video, wanted to touch on the accessories you mentioned come on the KRX. Not all of them come with that stuff, I bought my 2023 new & it was bare bones. I added a roof, sliders, windshield from Kawasaki & added an aftermarket sound system.
My 2021 just turned 2200 miles. One transmission. Two clutches Carrier bearing One way clutch Horrible spring sag Now it is using a quart and a half of oil on a 180 to 200 mile ride! I can't wait to see what happens next! And to be sure! Never again!
That's is the pathetic part I am a member of a group of retired couples that do trail riding and site seeing. A lot of higher speed riding which the Polaris and Can Ams tolerate far better than the KRX 1000.
comes with bi wheel drive and quad wheel drive , just imagine guys calling there motor bike a quad just to sound cool or whatever . BaHahaha I mean Is It a truck or a car. A BIKE. go cart -> BIKE golf cart -> BIKE snowmobile-> BIKE Tractor-> BIKE outboard -> AH HA BIKE rc car -> bikey Bahahaha .
Nice I’ve sure used mine was street driving while I was out of work on shoulder surgery driving 30/60 miles at 60 mph with 35s no issue other than it lives gas no break in period for mine soon as I got it went to royal blue and wind rock and beat on it hard love my krx over 2600 miles on it now
@@countryslickerofficial no I haven’t but lately I have noticed slipping and when I drive long ways on roads or high way belt temp got up to 3 bar back in the summer maybe it’s stretched I took cover off to look at belt and it looks brand new so I’m thinking or hoping it’s stretched before I got injured I had 900 miles on machine but when I got street legal and was in a sling if we needed to go anywhere Costco or anywhere I drive the krx lol lots of fun hell I had as much on the roads as I did the trails I work at m&m mars I even drive it to work some 33 miles one way I love the machine
Good informative video thanks...I don't drive mine hard like you do...just bought the 2023 trail edition. Would spring sag not be related to your driving style? I drive slow in the trails no dropping hard on suspension...and that's why I'm not to worried about the skid plate either...can't Imagine hitting anything that hard...the trex 800 has pretty much the same set up as far as skid plates.... have owned 2 and never bottomed out hard enough to ding it that much
Right on congrats on the purchase! It could potentially affect the leaking of nitrogen, although a seal that is holding internally shouldn't leak more or less due to how hard you drive it. Honestly I just believe it's a time thing. Even loosing a very very minor amount equates to noticeable difference as the years go on. Spring sag wasn't a very discussed subject until recently and I think that's due to the krx not being a brand new model anymore and there being some machines a few years old now.
D3 OFFROAD here on TH-cam did an amazing in-depth review of the sag issue. He proved it was the nitrogen levels in the Fox shocks. I pasted episode below if TH-cam allows it. th-cam.com/video/5rlf6yqnWhE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=n6DaQpbTsDJ70x2b
Been watching so many KRX videos and I also live in AB. I decided to shy away and will wait to see what the gen 2 looks like. I bought a can am and have had zero issues! Well over 2000km and not a single issue. I'm just hoping can am also comes out with a new 100ish hp machine as in the 1000cc NA class the mav sport is lagging in suspension department (only reason to consider krx was the suspension travel and storage)
@@adampetten1009 definitely not without issues they all have their quirks. Those can ams are definitely top of the game for power. Which one do you run?
@countryslickerofficial had a sport XXC but now have a Commander XTP Max since I got kids. Love it for a quiet interior and it's very comfortable. The longer 4 seater helps well as this class of can am do "bounce" around at speed. X3 which I've driven and drove with is bonkers but expensive and so little storage. I looked at the KRX as a mini X3.. still get the trailing arm rear suspension which tracks better than a arm. Polaris blow belts but worse catch on fire... seen 3 burnt rzrs this year alone no burnt anything else. Oct 1st we may see a Gen 2 KRX. otherwise I'm expecting a big update in MY26 to the can am 1000cc NA lineup as it's very stale now
Yes, me and the wife just retired and are excited to go exploring. We just moved and are four minutes outside Fish lake national Forest. We also have sand dunes 1 mile west of us.
Appreciate the review. The waiting on OEM parts makes me nervous. They’re having big savings right now on 2024s which seems a little odd so early in the year. ??? Glad to hear about the lockers as Can Am lockers suck. I’m actually waiting to see what this new Ridge will be.
My expectations were that this machine is meant for Alberta, nice review. I will be determining if 2 or 4 seater by the end of this summer and making purchase for 2025. I love how beefy the machine and I can fit in a damn seat, tried to sit in can am, felt like a kids booster seat lol
@@countryslickerofficial who knows, may be they will put factory charger on 4 seater by the time 2025 is here 🤷♂️ then I will be able to rock 35s no problem.
I actually made these out of 3mm thick abs plastic sheet. I find i hit them often on trees and would rather break the cheap abs and remake them than replace expensive actual fenders. Other than physical hits off trees they hold.up very well to mud and snow. And for 50 bucks cheap and easy to replace.
Check out D 3 Offroad, they have two KRX’s and do shock rebuilds. They are Canadians if you have not come across their channel yet. You might be able to just recharge your shocks w/nitrogen they have seen sag do to nitro leakage
I want to check reliability and how the belt life is on the vehicle. I plan on buying a SXS and the kawasaki seems to be the option i am piviting towards but i want real user feed back. Thank
they have a lot more aftermarket stuff that's really good. I bought mine over a year ago and have outfitted it very nicely. Go to full acess UTV or right coast , but my 1st choice is full acess.......also super ATV had some stuff.,but full acs ess lives these things

Yea😂, but power not everything, I want a good solid bike… the cab noise in the krx was rough though, we had the teryx4 years ago, loved the bike but the cab noise led to the sell of it, I’m thinking hard
Nice mate! Thanks for the info. Many years ago my Aussie buddies and I used to spend our evenings building buggies and racing each other on some amazing sand dunes in Lancelin, West Australia. I have always been an adrenaline junky, but have been committed towards the responsibilities as a bloke. I le that new tech can supply me with an instant MONSTER. But, I'll sacrifice some horsepower for dependability. I'm past the days of slamming beers and falling out of the buggy. Ignoring ever shifting dunes.... Your video helped me out. Cheers mate. I hope common sense prevails in your country and Trudeau is banished.
Comments on here wow did you come to watch the individuals personal expierence or just bash /hate on Krx? Its all good I get each of us are fan boys for our brand. We personally own the KRX4 es se model not the same but still Krx we love ours the FOX live shocks are amazing. It aint the fastest obviously we know that but we trail ride and we have yet to not get through the "shit" we have driven through.Thank you for the review sir.
@@countryslickerofficial Polaris has had the turbo out for 10 years. It’s not really an issue. In 2020 they went to a liquid cooled turbo in their pro line and it’s been even more reliable. It always gets me when people say ‘I don’t want this option or this option because it could fail. ‘ By that logic, you should be riding an actual bicycle since it will have considerably less moving parts than any sxs
Riding trails is good. But the transmission just makes it unrideable garbage to me. If I want to take the family down a dirt road on a nice leisurely ride it just makes for a horrible experience. 5.5k rpms at 25mph and horrible drone. These need only selectable gear automatic or manual.
@@countryslickerofficial I was just helping out a family member with financial problems keeping it and paying the payments. Didn’t really research it because I would have helped regardless. I was just really surprised how much I don’t like the machine. It’s the special edition 4 seater. It is very good on trails and technical stuff. But anything faster it’s just not for me
I agree with most of your review....but quit calling it a BIKE!! "Bike" is short for BICYCLE--meaning 2 wheels. Machine, car, SXS, buggy....I don't care, but BIKE is definitely wrong.
Lol i was waiting for someone to call me on that. Bad habits run deep ;) when i first got it i couldnt stop calling it a car and people hated that too.
Lol my 21 xrs smart shox is so much better then the Krx suspension wise, and it keeps u locked in the seat. Krx you are getting tossed around everywhere. You have under rated the 72” wide x3.. it’s definitely not the best suspension!!
Steering is much better than my can am x3.. feedback is sub par with the x3.. it’s a solid machine, but it’s meant for slower riding, cannot keep up to x3! My father in law owns a Krx so I definitely know what I’m talking about.
I dont know my man, that xrs has a lot of money in the shocks and it can take the big hits but that low speed dampening isnt quite up to snuff in my opinion. Does yours have the external reservior bypasses?
@@cullens165ablewhat a terrible absolutely terrible opinion. The xp1000 is garbage. You have no idea how that buddy of yours set the krx. It has like 24 clickers on each corner. Also the front diff probably blew going up a crazy rock climb pulling the broken rzr.
Want to see this thing in action? Here is the favorite ride of winter 2023 full sending the KRX in the snow!

Spring sag is an issue with any make or model SxS on the market.
This has been a very helpful videos to watch. This will make my buying decision easier. Thank you.
@fitnessbysami7972 your welcome! Glad to hear your pointed in the right direction. I think this machine fits a lot of boxes for people.
Great honest review. One of the most informative I've seen......Great job!
Thanks buddy i appreciate it
Comprehensive and believable review. Appreciate the details and explanations 👍
Thanks for watching!
Love watching your videos and shorts. Been following you for a while, would love to go on a ride with you. We have a KRX 1000 too. Love our machine.
Awesome to hear others loving the krx! I post my rides in alberta ohv riders and on Instagram often so hopefully we can connect for a ride soon!

Stay tuned for my next video i believe we fixed the sagging.

That sounds like a super sweet build to me how do you like the 35s vs 33s?
Thanks for review, thinking between the krx and x3, the krx I test drove is very loud on inside, the power of the x3 is unbelievable 😮
No argument there. Running an x3 i fell in love with the power
Yea😂, but power not everything, I want a good solid bike… the cab noise in the krx was rough though, we had the teryx4 years ago, loved the bike but the cab noise led to the sell of it, I’m thinking hard

Haven’t read one bashing or hater or complaint except yours.
get 1/2 trail armor..
full access trans skid
Brute poly motor and trans mount bushings
Silly Kehds,…
That’s a buggy!
A bad ass KawaPowa buggy.
haha that is true def buggy is a better word for it
Calling a sxs with a steering wheel a bike is just crazy lol.
I was going to buy one back in 2020 for 18k , now they gone up so much, 34k trail package..😢
I paid even more for mine if you can believe it
I almost turned the video off the sec you called it a Bike! It's a Buggy! Lol!
My bad! I've since changed habits
Usa a trail krx1000 is 25k i would of gpt a pro xp sport same price, more hp and not really any weakness
Im not sure long term how that turbo will work out with the extra moving parts.
@@countryslickerofficial Polaris has had the turbo out for 10 years. It’s not really an issue. In 2020 they went to a liquid cooled turbo in their pro line and it’s been even more reliable. It always gets me when people say ‘I don’t want this option or this option because it could fail. ‘ By that logic, you should be riding an actual bicycle since it will have considerably less moving parts than any sxs
@dchambers25 the problem with buying a Polaris is it's a Polaris.
I don't see any bikes here
why do people call these bikes? they are absolutely cars
Bad habit i suppose
@@countryslickerofficial just sounds silly. bike is short for bicycle which means a vehicle with two wheels. its a cool car
For some reason I think it's just a Canadian thing. I've heard them call snowmobiles bikes as well
Rig buggy UTV side by side or sxs not a bike
It's not a bike
Riding trails is good. But the transmission just makes it unrideable garbage to me. If I want to take the family down a dirt road on a nice leisurely ride it just makes for a horrible experience. 5.5k rpms at 25mph and horrible drone. These need only selectable gear automatic or manual.
@knunn5171 I think your looking for a Honda or yamaha then. Sounds like you bought the wrong machine for your application
@@countryslickerofficial I was just helping out a family member with financial problems keeping it and paying the payments. Didn’t really research it because I would have helped regardless. I was just really surprised how much I don’t like the machine. It’s the special edition 4 seater. It is very good on trails and technical stuff. But anything faster it’s just not for me
@knunn5171 that checks out for sure. For the cruising I feel like the r max or even the maverick is a better beast
It’s not a bike ….
It's NOT a BIKE...
I agree with most of your review....but quit calling it a BIKE!! "Bike" is short for BICYCLE--meaning 2 wheels. Machine, car, SXS, buggy....I don't care, but BIKE is definitely wrong.
Lol i was waiting for someone to call me on that. Bad habits run deep ;) when i first got it i couldnt stop calling it a car and people hated that too.
How many months of the year does that junk sit in your garage? I wonder
Lol my 21 xrs smart shox is so much better then the Krx suspension wise, and it keeps u locked in the seat. Krx you are getting tossed around everywhere. You have under rated the 72” wide x3.. it’s definitely not the best suspension!!
Steering is much better than my can am x3..
feedback is sub par with the x3.. it’s a solid machine, but it’s meant for slower riding, cannot keep up to x3! My father in law owns a Krx so I definitely know what I’m talking about.
I dont know my man, that xrs has a lot of money in the shocks and it can take the big hits but that low speed dampening isnt quite up to snuff in my opinion. Does yours have the external reservior bypasses?
I rode in a stock krx and the suspension was rough. Rode in a xp1000 and it was way smoother. Also we got a guy with a broke front diff on his krx.
The x3 is not the best lol. Do you enjoy the low ground clearance and the huge ass end kick?
@@cullens165ablewhat a terrible absolutely terrible opinion. The xp1000 is garbage. You have no idea how that buddy of yours set the krx. It has like 24 clickers on each corner. Also the front diff probably blew going up a crazy rock climb pulling the broken rzr.
bike lol
When you call the SxS a “bike”, I lose all faith in the accuracy of your review.
