2012 Kymco MXU 500 4x4 IRS
When you’re looking for the most exceptional value in an ATV available today, look no further than the MXU 500 4x4 IRS. The MXU 500 incorporates a totally new redesigned chassis with anti-sway bar and class leading independent front and rear suspension for precise handling in the most extreme terrain. The reliable single cylinder 499cc 4-stroke DOHC water-cooled engine now includes an Keihin 36.5mm carburetor with auto choke for flawless cold weather starting in any elevation. Power is delivered to the wheels by our maintenance free sealed shaft final drive including smooth automatic CVT transmission with reverse. Shift on a fly 4x4 traction helps conquer tough off-road conditions while our front Differential Lock is a flip of a switch away for the most extreme off-road conditions. Large world class disc brakes both front and rear for secure controlled stops, 2” receiver hitch, and easy-to-read multi-function digital display complete the package.
