I just bought a 2023 KRX and I gotta say it is good at everything. Nothing stands out but its solid at all things. Not fast but not slow. Its strength is probably is ability to climb and off road nasty trails better than others. I paid 23K for a new base model.
If all you can complain about is the CVT, that functions as it is designed,and the way it sounds, that is a pretty good machine in my book.
Kawasaki builds them tough. Watch component comparisons. Aftermarket clutching helps
You overpaid
With Accessories it will add up alot. Long as you useing it alot and having fun. Buy it.
It's better wrecking your everyday daily vehicle
If I could legally run that on the street, definitely would get one. That would be my only vehicle if I could.
Where i live the krx 1000 trail addition cost 22 grand
Link to those under 40 k ford, jeep, chevy 4X4's please?
Where's the turbo kit that you spoke of that was being made by kawasaki?! This was almost 3 years ago.
It cost's nearly 40k it's not worth 40k
We got one and it wasn’t even nearly close to 40k
lol wut? There 16.5 brand new??
For that much, I expect around 200 horsepower.
15000 a month from now . Economy crashed people out of work. Fire sale by june. .
Kawasaki...please put this engine in a new Brute Force 1000 👍🏼😎
@ JohnnyRebKy I doubt that would ever happen
You're basically buying a mini trophy truck. Is it worth it? Who knows, but I'm sure it's fun as hell if you have the money.
Tfl the only channel that spends most the time reviewing the outside of a vehicle rather than driving the buggy
I’m torn between getting the Kawasaki KRX 1000 or the Honda Talon R. Which do you recommend for east coast riding and why.
I was at Kawasaki dealer a week ago and saw this machine up close. It’s huge in size. Much bigger than Yamaha YXZ 1000. Suspension is also top notch. Check some videos of KRX VS TALON before you buy. I’m in love with this Kawasaki buggy. But it’s heavier and takes more space. Should be difficult to roll over compared to other UTV’s.
That’s because Canada has trash tax rates lol. The 2021 special edition is $19,999 in the states.
I think I would buy an old Jeep.Fix it up,and pocket the other 30 K.....
Fair enough but you won’t be having nearly the same experience. A Jeep is a low speed crawler. These are full on off road buggies that let you attack the terrain at high speeds. These are cheap trophy trucks not expensive Jeeps. Both have their merits
Just
Empty
Every
Pocket, and yes I have a Jeep lol
Sure, thats cheap as dirt to do that. This is for people that want more performance than that. Shows in the price. That is why trophy trucks cost 500k-1m
@@jadosa29 Are you kidding? I see these broken down on the trail all the time. They are not very rugged for the price.
Thats why id never buy a side bye side. Id get an older cherokee for half the price of this thing
It would have to be road legal with a interstate speed gear for me to ever pay that much. Id have to he able to travel in it to the trails to ever justify it
40k is not a joke. t's a luxury right there.
Kawasaki krx 1000 best of the best buggy..absolutly perfect machine and color..
While I agree the delay on the CVT can be annoying. That is an engagement safety feature that almost guarantees you will never burn up a belt. And that is nice to have when you are out in the middle of nowhere with no cell phone reception
That’s an interesting title for this vid. Canada must get one hell of a deal on new trucks, I haven’t seen anything in the way of a truck that’s even in the same general area of 20K (US), let alone the 14,850.00 (plus tax and license) I paid for mine. About a month into the Corvid crap the price of all SXS’s started dropping like a free fall elevator in the SW states.
i dont care what the hell you put on it, thats stupid expensive
Here in the U.S. it’s barely 20 grand, which is pretty normal here
They missed a huge market making it wider than 64".
80 months worth of mortgage payments!
what crack house are you living in
So a 18k machine + 5k in upgrades =40k in canada. Wanna buy my rzr and my trucks?
I have been looking for my perfect fit and I think this is it. I have a 2018 CO ZR2 (daily driver)that I am just beating the crap out of. At $50k most would call me a DA. I have been checking out all my options in a SxS. Is it the fastest? NO. I live on the far east side of Las Vegas.. Henderson NV and my back yard is a 1000 miles of some of the best trails you can find. I think the KRX is my fit. Great vid, Thanks. Im going to pull the trigger next week.
20k here in the U.S.A
Kinda seems like this machine is priced for suckers. NO WAY!
They are on sale for 16 k new in the us
I’ve already seen them down to 15999 in the us, in Nashville Tn, I love this buggy
Dropping quick all over down to $14,665 here in N Arizona buy next month be perfect timing I’d expect
13994 in Charleston Decatur Illinois area at owen motorsports
I wonder if this is because of the looming recession?
I’d buy it, if I was in the market, I really like the buggy, I have a maverick 1000r, I think we are gonna see a lot of lower prices on non essentials for a while..
That's a base price to get you in the door ..... I went to a spot that advertised the 15,000 dollar price buy the time they wrote it all up tax and title the price still ended up being over 20,000..... So I just went and picked mine up at my usual dealer and walked out a little over 21,000 with a roof tax and title out the door ...... but I'm more than happy with mine
Under 16000 in Sacramento!
I paid 20k Out the door for mine with glass windshield, roof, heater kit and wiper kit installed. Well worth every dollar spent.
Where and what dealer did you use
@@austinhertzfeld3474 carns equipment in clearfield PA
Where's Stephen????
Green light is better for hunting. You will have more contrast and the game will see it way less. So not only for the looks
Bought mine for $14,995 in Virginia
Red Dawn OutDoors with all this accessories?
what dealer?
I paid $18k for mine brand new from Michigan
Waitin for that 4 seat with a turbo!
When is turbo kit available
Mud, a hot 4wd Kawasaki one Crazy Canadian, id say this is going to be a great video!
My jeep pateiot 4x4 16k new. Brute force 05 7k plus 2k over 16 yrs still running hard
40 grand 😳. You guys up in Canada get ripped off. Selling for 15k here in the US.
Absolutely but on the other hand we have enough space and medical personel in our hospitals to take care of us ...an its free
Mario St-Jacques right, our government is messed up!
Mario St-Jacques free? Dont they tax the 💩out of your paycheck for that free service?
Bruh I literally bought mine for 16k our the door
You got to be kidding feller
Can you get a rear view camera to see around that spare?
He said it in the description. at the beginning of the video when he was showing the audio system, he said that there's also two cameras you can get on the front and on the back that works on the screen from the deck.
My buddy sent me a link today where they had krx 1000 for 13994 at owen motorsports in Charleston-Decatur Illinois...US of course but very sweet deal not sure if they have hidden fees I'm sure they do that's just list price
Except its not 40k. Try 20k.
I love Kawasaki, I don’t love them THAT much.....
I love Kawasaki and I do love them that much!
Same here, i love my Kawi, but outside of the product that i bought, I can't love anything else from them.
Frydaddy 15 I don't love anything that much : D
I saw it at a dealer last week. It’s huge and heavy machine but looks great with top notch suspension and ground clearance for attacking difficult terrain. Should more stable and difficult to roll over unlike other UTV’s.
Only issue I see is it’s underpowered for this weight. Also dealer wanted US $27000 base price with no accessories.
Buy one 2 years old and get it for $10.000
THX for a great vid, keep it up. I love what you do, the TFL crew should be thankful to have you.
So the KRX- right now its high on my radar, very much interested in this unit. For an NA engine rig its probably the best BUT I think you are also hitting the nail on the head when it comes to VALUE. Its new and its hot so value is not a concern for Kawasaki right now- ALL of the accessories are way too expensive! the base unit price is still at least 2 to 3 grand higher then it should be (I feel the same about the base Talon)- to my point. Here in the southeast of USA, TN to be specific. I can get a RZR 1000xp for around 16K. This unit a few years ago was THE sxs to have and it is still awesome especially for the price compared to all the other units at the same price point! That's a lot of upgrades or money saved for the cost difference.
But the Polaris is a pile of garbage compared to the Kawasaki, and especially compared to the Honda. The Can Am is equally shit if you want to compare build quality and reliability. The Yamaha is a good choice if you want a raw and reliable rig.
I think I stick with my atv. Not worth spending that much on one of these new, Mabey pick one up in a few years used for a fraction of the new price!
1/4 of this upgrades like fenders and mirrors and bumpers should be stock for this crazy high price. Soom they will offer you engine and transmission as optional components.
Useless, the price makes that vehicle nothing more than useless extravagance, especially when we are entering into another depression.
I've been pricing out an X3......the KRX is in line if you factor in the beadlock wheels and front diff.....plus, the KRX built like a tank.
Kawasaki nailed this unit on fitment, overall quality, and has an overbuilt suspension. They ticked all the boxes. Unfortunately they really missed it with the engine and CVT. While CVT is the most popular transmission in the UTV world, it does have the most HP loss at about 30 percent from crank to wheels. I could hardly imagine how much nicer this buggy would be with a slight weight loss, and a real transmission like the YXZ or the Talon.
They did NOT "nail it" with the suspension- already numerous reports of spring sag AND issues with the lowers A-arms causing damage under full drop and hard steering- its a first year unit- these are hopefully the bugs they will work out.
In Canada not US in Cali there like 20,000 or 18,000
Fox powersport in wyoming michigan had them for $5350 of the price and gave me $250 off for military..total of $5600 off..it was like $14,900 with setup taxes and anything else they add on to it..it was about $17,700 out the door
I gasped at the price until I saw the conversions.
To be fair, the $20,500 USD MSRP price is highly competitive with the other major brands with similar models. In fact, the KRX is a much better value when you consider you're getting 31" tires, beadlock rims and full half doors from the factory. That's easily over $2K USD in upgrades. As far as other accessories, the factory accessories are priced about the same as factory accessories from other brands. I own a Can Am Maverick turbo I can attest the factory accessories prices are high. KRX accessories will become cheaper as aftermarket companies begin making more of them. BTW, here in the U.S., several dealers are offering $5,500 USD discounts on the KRX models. If I could only get my wife to let me sell my 2017 Cam Am so I can get one of these beasts.
I paid 30k with all Kawasaki accessories. Would never do it again. Accessories are china junk. That awesome so call suspension looks great, springs will sag out like most other machines. Rides nice for awhile. Subwoofer catches and holds mud,water and dirt great. Can clean out. Won’t last. Machine is obnoxiously noisy and hot in the cab. Very slow. CVT and wet clutch set up in great. The best technical rock crawler I’ve ever had. But great video.
I’m not to impressed with mine either. Very first ride the lower knuckle blew out and stranded me. It was a nightmare to get out of the west va mountains.
Becareful crashing in dirt bush
You are wrong about it being the best handling sport SxS. The Wildcat XX has better handling and can easily out run the KRX...
I’m speaking from experience of actually driving these two machines back to back.
Kawasaki is gouging folks for the accessories. If you remove the sport designation and compare it to say something like Polaris Ranger Northstar Ultimate, a unit that comes fully enclosed, with heat, air, glass windshield and wiper, bumpers, winch etc, it makes no sense why the basics should not be a part of the KRX for the unit price. The concern for me is that this is a new unit, the aftermarket hasn't had time to build a list of accessories. Why spend $26,500 plus tax and then two thirds more of that price to get what are basic accessories. #Kawasaki.
Get a base 25k CA.in us 20 to 15k
Want to go anywhere fast? Just buy a used dirt bike for 4k.
Very accurate review on power to weight ratio. It wasn’t meant to compete with the more powerful SXS but will be a solid rig for trails. Hopefully the turbo will help it catch up with pack like Honda is trying to do...both late to the game and slightly unimpressive IMO, especially for the $$$. All SXS are pricey though
you could buy 6 4wheelers for the price
They are toys. The only choice for consumers is, how much money do they want to spend on a toy? 5K ? 20, 100? Really is no justification for them other than fun. So we can argue all day long about whether the price is fair or not, but it would be pointless on a frivolous product like this. IF we were talking about a ranch/farm or work utility vehicle like a Gator or the likes, then sure, what you get for the $ becomes more relevant. IF I could justify a toy in the 20-40K range tho, I would consider a Jeep. Get all the comforts of a road vehicle with options to get down and dirty at the same time. But that is just me.
No way that is nicer than the Can-Am for that price.
its heavy, its slow and its too wide to go on many trials in many states.....i just dont understand that thing
The only thing I see going for this sxs is the suspension. Other than that like you said most trails will be really tight, it's slower than a Honda Talon, and unless all you do is rock crawl there are much better choices out there.
I think the vehicle is priced right (if it included the roof and tailgate). The accessories are just too much $.
Right away I hate it. CVT transmissions are not reliable.
Over 20k miles in 4 different rzrs no transmission issues...only a few broken belts.
Cvt is not reliable ,LOL
How many SxS's have you owned with a CVT? 🙄
Well if you’re smart you wouldn’t buy anything in Canada. Lol. Way too expensive there.
Ah socialism
As a Canadian, to dam expensive for 112hp. Sorry.
Is this guy for real!?? What the f*** is he smoking bc I want some lol Kawasaki is prob the cheapest based 1000cc on the market with the Honda pioneer but they are 2 different side by sides. Is he making the claim if buying 2 KRX’s
2000 pounds? That’s a whopping 900kg! Lol
Lol bro that cf moto is at the back of pack actually probably didn’t even make it out of the parking lot
Jeffrey Eby Jr ok junior, so what would u know? What machine do u have? You channel hasn’t got any content, so I assume you’re just s troller!
CF Moto Z8 nah got a teryx 800
Jeffrey Eby Jr 🤪😁🤣
So the CVT makes it act like it has turbo lag
it has a wet clutch to handle "shock" load, its why they can claim such longer belt life BUT its also a big disadvantage in performance- the LAG is very real in these wet clutch units.
I paid 17000 with 6000 in accessories bring the total to 23
Where
@@frankbrattoli2727 Sloans in Murfreesboro Tn.
@@Mezorude thanks. These are way over $20k here in new jersey
@@frankbrattoli2727 yeah check around Nashville area most TN stores will price match.
This sxs in Arizona is $15,000 base, very cheap! Yours has thousands of dollars of worthless shit.
That's a ripoff. Assuming I had the money, I wouldn't pay more than 20-25k.
around 18k in Michigan
$900 for a ATV winch (that’s right, I said ATV). 🤦♂️
@ Jeremy Rhodes Kfi they are cheaper
Priorities....................sub woofers?
Caution, old age happens much sooner than you think. I know, I regret spending all the money I did in my youth on gearhead stuff. At least I did stop smoking 30 years ago!
Only 20000 grand in usa
Lol $40,000 Get on the Kawasaki KRX Facebook pages that about sums up the quality These things are snapping front knuckles like they’re going out of style They are having problems with coolant leaking oil leaking and they are under powered. I bought a first year KFX 700 Back in 2004 that Was a mistake Nothing but problems out of that atv Then I bought an 05 KFX It’s been a really good machine I’m sure the KRX Will be a good sxs When Kawasaki gets all the bugs worked out but first year machine lol No thank you
Yes, it's a costly machine to purchase up front, yes you can buy an old Jeep and build a pretty good machine to go offroad and have a lot of fun. Which is perfect if you have the garage space, a welder, chopsaw, notcher or tubing bender, a rack full of tubing, couple ARB or Detroit lockers, offroad shocks, 35 -37inch tires.... See where I'm going here? If you spent 20 years accumulating a pile of tools, and parts, then yeah, you can build a buggy for $10 grand in. But start pricing out a quality build and parts alone can start adding up $20-30 grand if your starting from scratch.
Just a note, very few people go all out with accessories from the dealer, right off the bat. Windshield, roof first, after that bumper and winch. Or the other way around depending on where you ride.
My opinion. Yours may vary. If I met you on the trail in your Jeep. and I in my side by side, I would still share a cool beverage with you and swap stories about the cool places to ride
They priced it way to high just like teryx after consumers noticed comfort is only thing going for it with great shocks and tires
A couple places I've looked at they are 13500 to 16k
Give it a min they will all come down just like my 18 teryx4 I paid 12k for it with front rear bumpers roof.......kawi thinks they are always greatest shit to run the earth but realize later brand loyalty keeps people in check and I enjoy the kawi utvs because it's like a raptor it's not a grizzly not a yfz it's ment for trails rocks creaks tight cornors vs rzrs and stuff just got to big to powerful for what we use them on.
Base price is higher then a base 2020 Corolla.
I'd rather have a vehicle that I can do both on and off road and several other things with but if that's what you like then buy it
Excuse me did you say 500+ USD for 4 points????? Go to PRP and get a 4 point for 120 max bro that's scummy from kawasaki, the rest is decently spendy too, especially how slow they are and how soft their springs are but dang...i cant get over the cost for those cheap harnesses..
That’s a lot of poutine🤑
Its clearly not worth the money.
I've been seeing these sell for 18
$15.5k at UVC powersports
18k polaris are 35k to
If you ride slow af krx is for you lol
It's not worth it ,even if it came with a super model 👎🏾
i like it but not 40k worth lol
