FIRST LOOK: 2024 KAWASAKI BRUTE FORCE 750

By the Staff of Dirt Wheels

Several months ago, Kawasaki released information on its 2024 ATV models, and our spirits sank when we noticed the Brute Force 750 was MIA. How could Team Green drop one of our favorite big-bore 4×4 ATVs from its lineup without warning. We asked, but they remained silent, although with a devious grin. Fast forward to January 2024 – It’s back!

NEW STYLE

The 2024 Kawasaki Brute Force received all-new bodywork that brings its appearance to modern levels. We can still see a hint of the old look in the seating area, but the front grill and wide fenders are everything but dated now. The design also provides more splash protection, which we don’t remember it lacking to begin with.

NEW FUNCTION

So long halogen headlights and hello bright LEDs. New headlights only add to the bold appearance, and we’re happy to see the addition of a direction LED pod light to the handlebars.

A full color display is also new for 2024. The screen’s background color is selectable in either black or white, and screen brightness adjusts automatically to suit available light. Display functions include a digital speedometer, 2WD/4WD drive indicator, fuel gauge, odometer, dual trip meters, dual hour meter, clock (12h/24h), battery voltage, Kawasaki service reminder, oil change reminder, and Bluetooth Indicator. A number of indicator lights surround the digital display for high beam, neutral, reverse, warning lights (engine, coolant temperature, CVT, oil, EPS, and battery voltage.
