So I have had my Teryx4 Blue EPS since January 13, 2012. Super excited about the purchase. Sold a 2009 Polaris Ranger 700 LE (running out of room with the kids getting bigger) and moved back to Kawasaki. Here is a break down of my experience thus far.

Positives - Excellent Handling, Sporty ride, Nice Smooth Power, Lots of Room, Rear Axles look very beefy, not sure about CV strength though.

Negatives - Drivetrain slack makes popping noise. I took it back to dealership to have them look at it for them to only tell me this is normal for the 750 engine and that it also does this on the Brute Force 750. Had a slight issue with the 4wd system. Got into some water (nothing crazy deep) and the 2wd/4wd electronic indicator started flashing back and forth (it was only the indication, no actual movement of the solenoid). I was able to make it stop by switching it into 4wd and then back out. Since then I have dielectriced greased all my connections and it has stopped.

One thing I do miss though is ground clearance as I had a 2" lift on my ranger and plan on doing the same with this one. Haven't read enough reviews though about kits other than the highlifter 2" and still not sure what size tires I would be able to fit with the lift kit. Any help on this would be appreciated.

So far have about 19 hours on the bike, 9 of which where spent in the Ouchita National Forest of Arkansas riding Wolfpen Gap and Le Fouche Mountain Trails. Bike handled incredible. Had 4 full size adults and 2 kids riding in the bike and it still crawled and had plenty of power. The skid plate did take a couple of hard hits and so did my new rims, but that is just the cost of having fun.

Will try and post some picks of our trip.

Thanks for posting. I'm looking at getting a blue eps T4 in the next couple of weeks. My Brute 750 also has the drivetrain slack. Really only notice it on rough, steep descents. After almost 1,300 miles on my Brute I still don't like to hear it, but I'm convinced it's normal. Post back with any other findings.

the 2wd/4wd flashing is normal operation to indicate the selection has not happened. It wasnt a water shortage, all of them do it (you can read about it in the owners manual). If you want a sure way to switch out of 4WLock & 4WD... as soon as you make the switch back let off the gas for a quick second. That'll relieve pressure from te drive system and it'll switch out (works like a charm for me). But yeah if after you make the switch and it doesnt switch for X amount of seconds... that blinking is simply and driver indicator that the selection has not yet taken place. Its supposed to do that.

Thanks for the review! ...hope you enjoy the T4!

Thanks IAC. I wasn't overly concerned about the 2wd/4wd since I did not actually hear the switch over or any grinding. Though I have read on the forum that others are having problem with the front differential.

My biggest concern at this point is ground clearance. I saw the pic of the red t4 with silverbacks and thats what im leaning towards, but want to hear from someone with experience on this setup. Dont want to be the guinea pig. Learned years ago being the guinea pig is COSTLY!!! HaHa!

Here is one with a CATVOS 3 inch lift and 31 inch tires. I really like the looks, just not sure if I want to go quite that big with mine.
