KFX®50
A
popular youth ATV that lets parents decide
The Kawasaki KFX®50 is a great starting point
for beginning ATV riders age six years and
older. With its wide 27.6-inch stance, full
floorboards and environmentally friendly
air-cooled, four-stroke engine, the KFX50
delivers solid performance and stable handling
to provide a good foundation for young learners.
An adjustable throttle stop, CVT transmission
speed limiter and lanyard safety switch allow
the rider's confidence and skill levels to
increase while parental control is maintained.
Once riders are confident enough to operate the
KFX50 on their own, parents can still maintain
control over its operation, thanks to the keyed
ignition which helps to prevent unauthorized
use.
The KFX50 has styling like that of the larger
KFX models and boasts features such as electric
starting, single-shock swingarm rear suspension,
A-arm front suspension, dual front drum and
single rear disc brakes. The compact entry-level
ATV also incorporates full floorboards, which
provide extra comfort and safety for the rider.
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.
Authentic Kawasaki Accessories are available
through Kawasaki dealers.
