KFX50 - ATV

For many families and their friends, riding all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) is both a passion and a social activity, so the Kawasaki KFX®50 is an excellent model for parents who want to introduce their children to this lifestyle while teaching them how to ride safely and responsibly.

Designed for riders ages six and older, the KFX50 ATV offers the simplicity of operation that helps adults teach children the important fundamentals of proper and responsible ATV control. At the same time, the KFX50 is easy to maintain, so families can spend more time riding the trails together rather than wrenching in the garage.

The KFX50 ATV is powered by an air-cooled 49cc, two-stroke engine that features automatic oil injection, so premixing fuel is unnecessary. Safety features include a removable power plate in the exhaust and a throttle limiting screw so parents can regulate speed, as well as a walk-behind ignition cut-off tether that stops the engine at the parent’s discretion. As a added safety feature, the parking brake must be applied in order to start the engine.

The engine rides in a steel frame and power is transferred to the rear wheels by lightweight chain drive. Suspension duties are handled by dual A-arm front suspension with dual shocks and a single-shock swingarm on the rear, while stopping power is provided by front and rear drum brakes.

Other KFX50 features include full floorboards for confidence and safety, one-piece seven-inch wheels, and a simple seat latch that provides quick and easy access to the air cleaner.

Available in Kawasaki Lime Green—a kid favorite—the KFX50 ATV comes with a six-month warranty that can be extended up to three additional years.

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.
