2022 KAWASAKI MULE SX XC LE - FULL IN DEPTH WALKAROUND

I decided to get in the office early this morning to take a walk around this Mule SX XC LE that we ordered in for a client recently. Obviously I know getting inventory in at some places has been difficult. Believe me. We encounter these delays every single day and HOPEFULLY we will all get thru these tough times. But until then, if you haven’t had the chance to see, touch, and feel a Kawasaki Mule, here’s an in-dept walk around the one we have in right now. Again this one is already sold but please feel free to ask any questions or add any comments you feel necessary! I love hearing from folks, love answering questions, and I enjoy hearing from current owners as well.

    I have this machine and if you decide on the trailer hitch with ball, remember to remove it before you dump a load, but it's easy to forget. The tailgate will smash the ball and put a lovely dent on her as you dump. I also installed a 60'' KFI plow with Warn winch that plows very well. This is my 4th Mule and have never had an issue with any of them.

    You’re very welcome! Thank you for your comment! It’s funny you say that because we always have coined the Mule models as “golf carts on steroids”. These things are absolutely tough. They’ll do all the things a utility machine would do but are a little more tame for campgrounds and neighborhoods. I think you’ll love it!

And you’re correct, the windshields for the new Mules does allow access to the front storage. I’ll tell ya, Kawasaki really has this machine dialed in pretty well. If I had to be picky, I would like to see them add a factory trailer hitch to the back of the machine. But other than that, I love these Mules.

    A few years ago my boss had a 2007 610 mule that he let me use for deer hunting and I thought it was a really great machine. So three years ago I had the chance to buy a 2016 XC awesome machine. Now I got the chance to buy a 2022 new and just waiting for it to arrive. This one is the camo model so its a touch different. But I don't like the tires and rims so I'm getting new ones and in all my searching I cant find the wheel offset to buy new rims can you let me know and thanks for the video now I know what I'm getting hope it gets here soon by the way the boss uses mine now but still has the 2007.

    Hey there! The Mule is much more of a hard working utility machine than it is a play machine. They do well in the trails but lack the power to get thru mud pits and so on. Plus the suspension on these is set pretty stiff so you can load down the rear dump bed.

Before the MX, they never had anything in that mid-size range except for the MULE SX and the MULE 4010’s. Which, power-wise, don’t quite add up to the PRO-MX. We have an MX in stock right now I’m going to try and get a full walkaround on here soon.

The Mule is a very job oriented unit. No crazy frills or thrills. Top speed of 24 mph. The Wolverine models start with a parallel twin 850 and go up to a 1000cc. They are much more sport oriented compared to the Mules.
