The Power Wheels Kawasaki KFX is the ultimate in realistic ATV riding fun that any kid could wish to experience. Just like a real life “adult” ATV it has amazing traction and will perform on wet grass(so long as it is not too wet), mud, gravel as well as in ruff terrain and rutted areas.
It comes with 2 speeds the slower reaching around 2.5 mph by pressing down the foot pedal, whilst the faster speed – achieved by using the twist grip throttle and the gas pedal will have the little terrors whizzing round at around 5 mph! There is also reverse.
All this is powered by a rechargeable 12 volt battery. At this point it is worth mentioning that having a back up battery is a good idea so that your little adventurer isn’t made to hang around waiting for his/her Power Wheels Kawasaki to recharge, whilst these are not cheap it is worth while. Investing in the 12 volt fast charger I found was also money well spent.
For younger children and those who are just starting out the Power Wheels Kawasaki KFX has the a high speed lock out facility ensuring safety and building
confidence before stepping up a gear. It also boasts a power lock brake system.
All that said, probably the most important thing to any child is the fact that it looks realistic with its sporty design. Its ability to ridden virtually anywhere will be sure to give hours of fun and adventure for children of all ages. However, with all the rough and tumble which can be involved in such active play a safety helmet may be worth consideration. Whilst this is not strictly essential wearing a bicycle helmet will give good protection should there be any mishaps – you could of course push the boat out and by your little monster a motorcycle helmet!

As you can see from the dimensions the Power Wheels Kawasaki KFX is really not suitable for use indoors, it is very much an outdoor toy and this is worth considering before you buy – storage should also be considered, although I know of one which has been left out in pouring rain and still works perfectly, although it is probably not a good idea for this to happen on a regular basis!
One small moan would be the noise generated by the hard plastic wheels on concrete or other hard surfaces, the good thing is that it is possible to purchase rubber bands or tyres which will fit over the wheels. Not only will these reduce the noise but they also help improve the already favourable traction.
Your Power Wheels Kawasaki KFX will require assembly when it arrives but this really is not difficult even for those of us who are not particularly good at such tasks, and you do receive everything you need in the box.
In all this is a great fun toy to have around, it seems to be very durable and the charge on the battery lasts for a decent amount of time. Kids seem to find it easy to ride and operate, but some adult supervision especially for younger children is advisable.
