Built around Kawasaki's atv motorcycle platform, the 2017 Kawasaki Brute Force 750 4x4i EPS pairs a 749 cc (45.7 cu in) liquid-cooled engine architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 50 HP (36.5 kW) at 6,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 59 Nm (43.5 lb-ft) at 5,250 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 66.8 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (5,250 rpm) and peak power (6,750 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Brute Force 750 4x4i EPS measures 315.1 kg (695 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.16 HP/kg (6.3 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 909 mm (35.8 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1 mm (0 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 18.93-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
