(PRWEB) July 10, 2005 — The new Masai A300 & A450 Adventure models were launched this week at the Transvalquad show in France – the largest ATV show in Europe.

These two quads are SUV style, which sit between utility and sport models, for those who require some practicality without sacrificing design or performance. Both models are fully Euro-2 homologated for road use.
The A450 is a powerful liquid-cooled machine, with an impressive output of 45hp in derestricted form. It features dual disc brakes at the front, with single disc at the rear, and is fitted with a 5 speed manual gearbox with reverse. There are two lockable storage pods on the rear mudguards, and a rack is fitted as standard (not on the show model pictured). The RRP is a very competitive £4595.

The A300 is also liquid cooled, and generates 18hp. This power is fed through a fully automatic CVT gearbox, which also features a reverse gear. Just like its bigger brother, it has dual disc brakes at the front, with single disc at the rear, and a carry rack fitted as standard. The RRP for this model is just £2895.

These new Adventure models will be available in the UK from authorized Masai dealers in August.

Kawasaki KFX400 ATV Is a Great Chioce for ATVin

Uncategorized Wednesday 24 November 2004

The popular 400cc sport all-terrain vehicle (ATV) class appeals to riders who want the leading edge of power, performance and exhilaration.

These competitive riders are purists who will accept nothing less than a manual transmission for maximizing engine acceleration, demand powerful braking performance and typically choose the fastest line through a turn. Kawasaki’s answer to this high-performance demand is the KFX®400 sport ATV. The KFX400 ATV is powered by a 398cc, liquid-cooled, four-stroke engine featuring double overhead cams and four valves atop a chrome composite-plated aluminum alloy cylinder. Fed by a new 37mm high-performance carburetor, it includes electric start and has a counter balancer to reduce vibration.

The KFX400 ATV engine utilizes a “dry sump” design, with the engine oil being carried in the tubes of the high-performance chassis instead of the traditional location beneath the engine. This design enabled engineers to shorten overall engine height so it can be placed lower in the chassis for enhanced stability while providing higher ground clearance. Transmitting power from the engine to the rear wheels is a high-performance five-speedplus-reverse manual transmission and efficient O-ring chain.

A high-performance powerband requires an equally advanced chassis, so the KFX400 ATV engine rides in a high-tensile steel frame and subframe. Suspension duties are handled by dual front A-arms with new fully adjustable shocks that provide 8.5 inches of travel, while an aluminum-alloy swingarm with fully adjustable shock provides 9.1 inches of travel on the rear.

Contributing to the KFX400’s low, 373-pound dry weight are competition-inspired aluminum-alloy wheels, and stopping power is provided by dual front disc brakes and a single rear disc brake.

As with all off-highway vehicle recreation, Kawasaki encourages ATV riders to ride responsibly and to respect the environment. Kawasaki will pay first-time buyers of a new Kawasaki ATV $100 for completing an ATV rider safety course conducted by the ATV Safety Institute (ASI).
