2007 Kawasaki Kfx 700 Reviews
by , on
Always a favorite, the Kawasaki KFX700 all-terrain vehicle (ATV) continues to be popular among off-road enthusiasts.
Its powerful V-twin engine, automatic transmission and racing-style chassis, make aggressive riding on the KFX700 fun and easy, from morning to sunset. For 2007, in addition to Kawasaki's trademark Lime Green color scheme, the KFX700 is available in stunning Black Marble, or cool Meteor Blue.
The KFX700's power and performance begins with its engine. The liquid-cooled, 697cc, four-stroke, 90-degree V-twin is matched to a performance-tuned continuously variable automatic transmission. Combined, the powerful engine and automatic transmission eliminate rpm and shifting concerns because it's in the optimum powerband at all times. This allows the rider to focus even more attention on choosing good lines, whether it's on the race track or trail.

Other features include shaft drive, powerful dual front disc brakes and Kawasaki's sealed, oil-bathed, multi-disc rear brake system. The KFX700 also features the industry's first mass-produced ATV chassis with a racing-inspired single lower front frame tube – the design preferred by cross-country ATV racers.
Rear suspension duties are handled by a motocross-inspired swingarm with a piggy-back reservoir shock, and ITP Holeshot tires provide the KFX700 with maximum traction and maneuverability.
Rounding out the features list are sport-style serrated footpegs, a protective engine skid plate and a powerful 45-watt headlight.
