Just bought a 2023 Pro FTX EPS the other day. Now i have a new obsession!!!
I’ve dreamed of having one since 2015. It was a big day for me! Haha congrats
Going to go pick up one of the diesel versions on Saturday, they have a ton of torque and are complete work horses. Already know I'm gonna have buddies talking smack on it but in my heart I know its supreme.
Ok so when I read this comment, I didn’t want to respond with what I was thinking cause I don’t wanna be a Debby downer or anything. But I wouldn’t be a good CZcams person if I didn’t tell you what I know. I’ve heard a lot of bad things about diesel models. There is also some videos out there about how they have no power up hill, no speed. I have. A buddy and his won’t go over 15 mph. If you watched my video I’m sure you’ve done your research about that model. I just wanted to make sure you are aware of that. They may have fixed those issues I really don’t know. But only you know what’s best for you so you do you. Thanks for watching!
Make sure your seatbelt is fastened, it’s a safety feature on the mules
At 16:12 you grabbed the three wire connectors. What are those for and where do they run to?
I stopped listening when you said that yamaha was garbage !!! You definitely are not a mechanic with those comments. Yamaha viking 700 is one of the toughest side by side on the market.
After cleaning the break area spray with Pam, will keep mud from sticking on brake cable
Ty for this video, I've been looking for about a month, to me it came down to Polaris or the Kawasaki, WOW what a difference in price, but no one around me can keep them in stock, I even told the sales rep, find me a used one then, he said, yeah right. Now I see why every other brand you can get used, new or barely used, but finding a new or even used kawasaki is like finding gold.
Wow. What state are you located in?
@@TexasEmpire south Carolina
I was about to say that’s crazy. But nothing surprises me anymore.
I'm in walterboro sc.
Parking break should not do that if adjusted properly. I have a 2020 with 17,500 miles on it. It is our ranch rig in the bridger mountains north of Bozeman MT. I had the same issue at first but once i figured out how to set the tension on both sides it will hold a 1000 pounds in the bed on a 12+ % grade.
The door latch is simple to adjust, it’s just two 10 mil screws. My glove box was sticking to I just sprayed it with a little silicone spray and it works like a champ now. Don’t use any petroleum based products like WD40 it will swell the grommet.
Thanks
I agree with you 100%. I know someone with a diesel one and it’s a “MULE”. It slows down a good bit going uphill, however whatever you need it to do, it will do. I’ve never driven a gas one, is the gas model’s torque really that much less than a diesel?
This is probably one of the best videos on the MULE, if not the best.
Thank you for a great review , we want to buy one and we were undecided on which one to get (honda pioneer, kawasaki, polaris) but kawasaki is definitely in our price range. Will be using it for hunting, taking kids for ride , work. Unfortunately due to status of our country seems there are not any in stock in our state. We will need to order and wait a few months.
Dang covid
Great review👍
I am interested in the 2023 Mule Pro DX diesel.
Will be using it just for hunting so the 30mph top speed will be fine.
Your thoughts on it would be greatly appreciated.
Unfortunately I don’t have any hands on experience with the dx. But what I have heard is it struggles to have power up hills or pulling a heavy load. They may have improved that with the 23 model but I’m not sure. There is a guy on CZcams with the dx model and he has a pretty solid review on it. If I find it I will tag it.
Enjoyed the video. Currently debating between mule and can am defender. Mostly for farm work so im leaning heavily towards the mule. look foward to your upgrade videos.
Hey there GREAT VIDEO! I have a tiny 6 acre farm with 3 horses. I am looking at a 2022 Kawasaki Mule Pro MX to haul feed, hay, manure buckets from pastures. Also, pull an arena drag and manure spreader. Do you think it will be sufficient? Thanks in advance for your advice.
how well does it climb? Does it have a skid plate?
It does have a thick plastic skid plate. It’s climbs pretty dang well. Everything I’ve tried to go up it’s gone up. I wouldnt take it to Moab or anything crazy like that.
@@TexasEmpire thanks for the reply
I just realized that you have the fx
I’m looking at the pro mx….
Are they the same ?
Do you find the unit to be stable ? Not tippie?
@@30303738 so the pro mx is a little smaller and I would imagine has better stability. I have most definitely got mine tippy. And it’s ha worries passengers. But I have pushed these machine to their limits. And no just how much I can get away with.
What about the DXT diesel ?? Noise seems loud on video but I have a fuel tank on the farm reason why I'm looking at the DXT. But power compared to Gas, speed and all is it worth it.
I have no hands on experience with the dxt. But I have always heard they have no power especially going up hill. Like they will only go 5mph. Again that’s only what I have been told. I’ve never seen one run in person
What working weight strap or breaking strength strap do you use to tie down your Mule when transporting on trailer?
Great video.
Could you use this in flooded timber? Not to deep water but going through some water?
I don’t see why not. I’d look into some sort of rust prevention. And grease the lower stuff more often
Quick question. Local Law Enforcement buggy headlights and aux power are out on Kawasaki Pro FXT. I can't find a good diagram to try to help them fix it. They have a low budget and covid closed their maintenance down. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
Those are on the same circuit if I remember right. I start with fuses. And if that don’t work start at the head lights and follow the wires back looking for issues
Like mine ...bought it for the same reasons. I am thinking I could take maybe 3 sumo wrestler's hunting in it at best. But hey that's a load
I agree! Haha
How is the noise on these, rode in some older models and they were very loud.
These are a lot quieter than the old ones. But can am is definitely quieter. With that being said I have gotten to 70 yards of deer with out them knowing. And about 50 on some pigs.
@@TexasEmpire thank you for the info. I looked at the Textron/artic cats/tracker, they are super quiet. I worked on them in Army, just want a balance between work and hunt and not very loud.
So it’s a FX not a FXT?
Mine is an fxt.
Does your wife drive/like it? I want one for me (hunting/work/play/etc) but the wife will be enjoying it too. Don’t want something she’s gonna have to manhandle when she loads up the kids.
She loves it! The only complaint is the gas pedal as you bounce your foot pushes and let’s off cause of the orientation of the pedal. They make a pedal helper which I need to get.
Just bought a mx pro with eps ,my wife has had shoulder surgery and she says she loves it!
💪👌👍
