Kawasaki mule pro 2015

Got my GR Manufacturing windshield installed - love it!

Received some of my other "parts". Got the Kawasaki horn kit. Rear bumper was back ordered. Got the rear Boot protectors - front on back order.

Here are a couple pics.

Looking awesome!!! I got the bed mat through Kawasaki and would have to give it a big "thumbs down". Too thin and prone to fly out of the bed while underway. Way too flimsy and cheap for the money. Don't waste your money. Floor mats are the same thickness and not worth it either. Should have been twice the thickness. Get a horse stall rubber mat and cut it to fit both floor boards and rear bed and save $200 would be my advice. What did you have to give for the windshield? Was it tough to install? How's the quality on the skid plates / AArm protectors? They are sure pricey. Hopefully an aftermarket, aluminum version will be available shortly. Ditto front blade.

Center console, however, I really do like. The fact its removable a huge plus. The Warn 4500s, I also like very much.

I'm thinking of spraying the bed with LineX, leaving the "track" where the nylon glides need to slide to grow/shrink the bed's sides unsprayed. Curious if anyone else out there has sprayed the bed of their Mule Pro?

Easily installed and removed without tearing up the seats. Great height to rest an arm on. Shop manual from Kawasaki still on back order

I also used horse stall mats for my floor and my bed mat and they work GREAT! Also not too expensive, and can be cut with a skill saw.

If you want to spray they bed take a look at Rhino liner. I will cost about $120 (4 bottles and the spray gun) and you will easily be able to do your entire bed (2-3 bottles at the most) and have plenty left for another project. I have used it several times on ATV racks, implements, my old Mule bed and floor boards, etc....

Rear bumper, horn kit, front and rear A Arm guards, bed divider all ordered today...... I'm bummed as the shop manual from Kawasaki is on back order. Has any other Pro FXT owners gotten a copy of the official shop/service manual?

 

[Code54]

There was a guy selling them on Ebay for a good while - may want to check there. Think a PDF version was under $10 if I recall correctly.

 

[W3IAX]

I got the Service Manual on CD off of E Bay - High Definition Manuals for $14.50.

It appears to be very good. Searchable, able to zoom in and out, etc.

I like the new Mule, BUT that seat .... I dunno.

Has anyone added the power lift? I visited a dealer this evening and he said it was $1000 list adder for the power lift. Also, does anyone know if a front basket is available? Thanks!

I read it only has a 250 pound capacity so I didn't care to investigate further

6 guys in the seats would be a hellva lot more than that.

I believe he was referring to the lift, not the machines weight rating.

I did see it was about $900+ so that ended my interest in it, thought it was way to expensive for what it was. I did look at the install instructions and it does not list a capacity - would think it would lift the entire 1000lbs bed capacity???

I did see an aftermarket front rack but don't recall where. It was not factory but a custom outfitter.

The capacity of the hydraulic cylinder to lift the dumping bed not the capacity of the entire mule. I own a pro FXT and it is one great hauling machine

I am looking to buy a new UTV. There are so many good choices I am having a difficult time making a decision. At this time I have it narrowed down to a Mule, Gator, or Ranger. I can't decide if I like the 6 passenger option on the mule or not. Yes sometimes it would be nice, but the regular bed is 4 cubic feet bigger all the time. I also think it looks a bit sportier with less cage. I definitely want Camo because it always looks cleaner. The power lift is also a must, my dealer said it will lift at least 1000 lbs and maybe more. Although I found the flat bench seat comfortable I think it is kind of ugly and cheap looking. At this time I am leaning towards the 3 passenger mule, I also really like the gator. The Gator has a package that includes power steering and a power lift. The bed also comes from the factory with a linexed bed. I haven't looked closely at the ranger yet but I might. I am pretty sure it is either going to be a mule or a gator. It might just come down to the best deal.

Both the Gator and the Mule and nice UTV's. I don't use my 6 person seating much but it is handy when we have a few people that want to go riding but normally just have it set to 3 person mode and have the "big" bed.

Exactly what we do. I have a 2015 Gator, and normally keep it configured with one row of seats, and the larger bed. But when we have guests, and want to ride around our property, it takes about 30 seconds to open the second row of seating, and *poof*, off we go.

Sure is handy. We have two kids and if they each have a friend over my wife and I will take them all for a simple "trail" ride and go hiking down on the farm and the 6 seats works perfect. Never would have thought I wanted a 6 seat SxS but even when my elderly parents are over they sometime go for a little ride around for fun after dinner on a nice summer evening. Kind of the swiss army knife of the off road world.

Thank to all here with the positive info on their experience with the PRO-FXT.

Just took possession of the LE model in red to use on our CA vineyard.

Now to do some additions...LOL
