KAWASAKI BAYOU® 250 UTILITY
ATV Simple, durable, cost-effective work machine
 The
Kawasaki Bayou® 250 is the smallest work-oriented
all-terrain vehicle (ATV) in Kawasaki’s 2005 lineup,
but its durable design, convenience features and
low operating cost makes it one of the best-selling
models in the industry.
The Bayou 250 features an electric start, four-stroke
engine matched to a fivespeed-plus-reverse semi-automatic
transmission, dependable shaft drive, and sturdy
front and fear cargo racks.
The Bayou 250 utilizes independent
A-arm front suspension and it is the only ATV in
its class to feature a semi-independent multi-link
rear suspension. This design provides a smooth,
compliant ride without the complexity and maintenance
requirements of a fully independent design.
 Additional
features include triple drum brakes, hitch bracket,
easy-to-read fuel gauge and a molded-pin accessory
connector that makes hooking up electrical accessories
quick and easy. Plus, its steel cargo racks can
carry a combined weight of 110 pounds.
