New colors no extra power no extra seats wow just wow! And they made a big deal of it. Very disappointing!
Go big, or go home...I was looking to add a narrower KRX to my fleet. But, no dice.
I think that for what it was built and geared for, it has no need for any more power. For the riding I do, and most trails here, you honestly very rarely have the opportunity to open it up. I know I'm in the minority on this, but I'm not a run fast, jump far kind of rider. I think the KRX was built for rock crawling (which is why I bought mine) and the HP is perfect for that. Jeremy McGrath kind of proved that in the KOH's. He was beating all but six of the monster turbo machines with his basically stock KRX when he made a mistake and broke something in the front suspension. He fixed it and still finished 29 out of 131, and one of only 33 to complete both laps. By that same token, the low power switch is a joke. Can't imagine why ANYONE would ever use that.Yeah 2021 models pretty disappointing. They should of learned form their issues (knuckles, etc) and already had a turbo in the wings ready to go.
People can say you don’t need turbos blah blah, but the industry is moving forward and can am, polaris and speed utv (which will be the best car by a long long ways if it comes out as they say) will be leading the way. The kawi, according to shock therapy gurus, has the best suspension geometry of any stock utv...it just needs power...we have a kawi in our group and I’d agree...it’s a great ride but way, way, way too underpowered for ME and my riding. It’s got similar power as the xp1k from 5 years ago. The kawi is light years ahead of the talon...I wish kawi would of pushed the edge and had a factory turbo ready to go
