The capability of a mule is way more than this guy tested for. I have literally never gotten a mule stuck in the mud been working with them for over 10 years. But he is right if you like to go fast on trails. This isn't the buggy for you, but if you want to get there, pack out your gear and whatever else this will do it and do it well.
I had a 2019 just like that one, it would go through about anything and pull 1500 lbs , I have had three rangers and two mules , and mules are the only ones I miss
Good review. We bought a 2023 XS,FI,XC. We love it on our farm and added a bed liner, trailer hitch and roof. Work horse all day and plenty fast enough not to mention legendary reliability and the best warranty in the business. No one else has 25 years of producing a proven utility vehicle made in the USA
Great video TK! I have been waiting literally for years for this review! It's a great little machine within its capabilities, which are pretty surprising. I particularly like the high-placed air intake built into the roll-cage!
I have had two ranger 900 xp's , ranger 570 ,Cfmoto z950 and 19 mule just.like that black one, I sold them all and the mule is the only one I miss, and I might get another mule at some point, mule was built better that any of the ones I had
What if something goes wrong? I read reviews and watch videos all the time about Kawasaki not doing an adequate job with standing behind their products. I went round and round with them myself on two products. Issues were never resolved. 3 dealerships went out of business by me. Shady business practices. I refuse to buy any Kawasaki products myself for that very reason. Apparently, many other people are seeing issues about this. I realize every company has some type of quality control issue now and then, but how you handle those situations determines the reputation of your company, dealerships included. Average "Joe" can't afford most of their products without going into more debt, especially with financing. Q? want or need.
My buddy has this exact machine, he runs wi th us with our ranger mid-sized, and a canamechanical special razor. It's a tough little machine. It's slow but it goes everywhere our machines go. For the price point as these have creeped up drastically in the last few years, you can buy a cfmoto uforce600 for just a few dollars more. So pick your poison and enjoy.
So does it off road really well I’m definitely wanting to look at one later it’s price is good I’ll probably get a used one I would get this exact model I know it works really well but I’m curious on how well it off roads
The only thing missing is... the left hook! You didn't take it into the woods the way you took the Pioneer 520 a while back. Is it because the mule can't do that stuff, lack of time, or some other reason?
Search Mule Bercomac on UA-cam. I put chains and a snowblower on mine. Works amazing. Be sure to have a trickle charger on your battery though as it does discharge when not in use. My cottage is off grid so I use a solar one and hang it vertically to keep the snow off it
Yes! I purchased the KFI plow with the side wings (helps hold the snow in place) and it's actually phenomenal. Again, not very fast, but it will do the job superbly!
@@andrewsbbq lol you must not have had a new Honda lately. Their quality has gone way down. I had a 2020 pioneer and it was the biggest turd ever. Had multiple problems with it. Rear shocks were built wrong from the factory. So 2 weeks old and down for a month waiting on new shocks. Then at 6 months the fuel pump died. Plus it had a handful of recalls for steering and brakes. Sold it and bought a Kawasaki Teryx and haven't had 1 problem in 2.5 years and 1200 miles. Plus the fit and finish was way above Honda
@@bigseff23 interesting my neighbour has a 2021 Pioneer 520 and beats the shit out of it with no issues. He’s gotta have 2,000 hard kilometres on it. It works his farm and he takes it moose hunting, ice fishing, and pulls way more than it’s rated for This Mule is a bit too bare bones and underpowered to be worthwhile imo. It’s an offorad golf cart.
Well, an off road 4x4 golf cart with low-range and a dump bed for the price of a mid-range atv. A LOT of storage, VERY simple mechanicals. 2 seats vs one seat too. Any SXS you CAN afford is better than every SXS that you CAN'T. Within its capabilities it's great. It's the spiritual off road version of an original VW Beetle: low-power, Spartan simplicity, reliable, fixable. Cheap enough to be modable. There are much, MUCH more capable machines, no doubt about that. However, used appropriately it can be a good machine. Cheers.

I love these reviews on lower end affordable options on side by side. Great content!
More to come!
Great review, nice machine with a low price point. Very tempting.
Great video....I had a 2007, 610 mule for 18 years, it was a great machine, never had any problems other than batteries and I set of tires
I had a 2011 610 XC loved that vehicle.
Why not use mapping app for speed?

Kudos for doing "Real People" reviews and not 20-50grand machines.

Ah, with the Chinese made engine, air cooled yet.. What about the differentials?
Very dependable machines

Glad you liked it!
Roll cage air intake on my 2024 does not have a bug screen covering the two holes. This mule is replacing a 2005 610 mule, that is still a workhorse.
Buying one tomorrow with the front windshield, winch and Moose snowplow.

How was the steering effort on the mule compared to your ranger 570? Our ranger crew 570 is brutal to turn. Thanks!
Why not just download a speedometer app on your phone?
I love mine. I have loaded it down with bricks and i wasnt really careful. Shines!
I have one for work around my property, It is perfect if you have to hop in and out of it a lot

Love my mule best bang for the buck
Just put a knn sticker on it and feel the power!!
Great video. Help me purchase my SX XC for working around my farm. Thank you.
A little faster one to replace my traxter Xl would be awesome and seating for another half a person lol.
Why pace your speed with a tundra? There are GPS phone apps that tell you speed
Because tundra is better than ford Chevy or Ram and just simply more reliable even the speed O is more reliable than a IPAD app
5 1/2 ft truck bed?
Looks like you barley fit inside. Might be an ok kid's machine & thats it.
This thing is tiny. One person and a half passenger capacity.

Just logistics in this case. This was shot at a local trail close to where I live. Couldn't make it up north to Ironwood that week due to travel.
Cfmoto 600 >
Any snow removal information on this small Utv?

Good size for tight woods but to slow when they ever gonna update this kawasaki?
This speed is THIS model… get the pro mx to be faster….
Dont want it i got a teryx 800 but would like something smaller that will go over 25 mph at least 40 preferably
I think I’d spring for a Pioneer 520
Kawasaki gives you 3 year warranty though. Honda only 1
@@bigseff23 you don’t need a warranty with Honda. And I would hope in 3 years on any new machine you don’t need a warranty claim on any brand

Glorified golf cart !!
That is a ridiculous comment. Congrats
3” what can I say, it’s just not enough 😂 wow how sad my 41 year old Honda big red does 51mph.
Looks very silly in that trucklet.
