FREE EASI TRAINING WITH THE PURCHASE OF A KAWASAKI MULE UTILITY VEHICLE OR BRUTE FORCE ATV
ASI®, the European AllTerrain Vehicle Safety Institute, is a not-for-profit organisation which provides safety training courses for ATV and side-by-side utility vehicles.

EASI's UK operation is sponsored by the leading manufacturers such as Kawasaki and delivers a programme of specialist ATV and side-by-side operator training courses which are designed to improve operator skills, safety levels and awareness of the capabilities of ATV’s. EASI training is important to anyone buying a new machine to ensure responsible use and understanding of
the vehicle, thereby reducing the number of accidents and injuries that may results from improper operation. EASI offer a generic loading, towing and reversing course in addition to the introductory safety training course for users who frequently use their utility vehicle to carry large loads. The course involves sourcing and identifying individual machine-recommended front, rear and combined loading weights, in order to practice different driving techniques to experience the effects and different handling characteristics once your machine is loaded. You will also practice how to secure carrying loads
safely, safe hitching and reversing with a trailer. These skills help to keep your utility vehicle in the best working condition and minimising damage to your vehicle, as well as ensuring your safety and others around you. Buyers who purchase a new or used Kawasaki MULE utility vehicle or Brute Force ATV are eligible for FREE or highly subsidised EASI operator training, subject to qualifying terms, conditions and availability. Contact your local Kawasaki dealer or visit the Kawasaki website for more information.
