2006 KAWASAKI BAYOU® 250
UNBEATABLE VALUE FOR HARD WORK OR PLAY
 Ranchers,
farmers and outdoor enthusiasts looking for a simple
yet rugged and affordable all-terrain vehicle (ATV)
that can work hard and play hard can look to the
Kawasaki Bayou® 250. With its durable four-stroke
engine, electric start, five-speed transmission
and steel cargo racks, it’s one of the best values
on four wheels.
The Bayou 250 ATV utilizes independent A-arm
front suspension and 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 12-volt
accessory connector that makes hooking up electrical
accessories quick and easy. Plus, its steel cargo
racks can carry a combined weight of 110 pounds.
Authentic Kawasaki Accessories are available
through Kawasaki dealers or they can be purchased
on the Internet at
www.kawasaki.com.
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). Interested consumers can
call ASI toll-free at 800-887-2887.
