ENGINE The ATV industries most powerful, liquid-cooled, 749 cm 3, SOHC, 4-valve V-twin engine churns out a substantial 50.9 PS 6,500 rpm. Torque output 60.7 N m 5,000 rpm lets the KVF750A accelerate with ease. Offsetting the cylinders by 90 results in perfect primary balance, for low vibration levels and comfortable riding. Its so smooth theres no need for a separate extra engine balancer, saving power and weight. Oversquare bore and stroke measure 85 x 66 mm. All-aluminum cylinders feature electrofusion-coated bores for light weight, long wear and excellent heat dispersion. The electrofusion bores save 1.5 pounds of engine weight. Large bore CVKR-34 mm down-draft carburetors are oriented for best flow into the straight intake tract for high intake efficiency and gutsy power across the rpm range. The four valve heads use large, 30 mm intake and 26 mm exhaust valves. Efficient, SOHC (Single OverHead Cam) design operates forked rocker arms with screw type lash adjusters for ease of maintenance. Vacuum-operated petcock automatically shuts off fuel flow when the engine is not running. Oval, oiled foam air filter provides a large filtering surface for excellent breathing between routine cleanings. Clever body styling has created a simple air box cover designed to allow access to the air filter by removing only one cover.
