Kawasaki Teryx
Kawasaki Teryx Factory Roll Cage
Roll Cages, Side Panels & Doors
The Kawasaki Teryx has a roll cage that looks pretty similar to
a Yamaha Rhino. Separate headrests are located on angled bars behind occupant's
heads. Seat belts are mounted on the vertical outside part of the cage. The
Teryx cage is removable in about the same locations as a Rhino. The Teryx does
have one additional passenger grab bar on the ceiling
It is interesting that Kawasaki chose to not come from the
factory with more to keep the driver and passenger in the vehicle.
Although the Teryx does have a molded plastic area near your feet to help keep
them in the vehicle, I would have thought that Kawasaki would have gone farther.

The Teryx fuel fill is directly below the passenger seat instead
of behind it like on the Rhino. This will make it a bit more difficult for
aftermarket manufacturers to build a side door.
What to look for:
-
Material selection - Chromoly, mild steel or aluminum
and what wall thickness. Each material & thickness has pros and cons - cost,
strength, weight, etc. Make sure you ask questions.
-
Cage Design - Gussets and triangulation increase the
strength without adding much more weight.
-
Removeable? - Most aftermarket cages are bolt-on. Besides mounting to stock lower bars, does the cage
add any mounting locations? A custom made cage that is bolted or welded to
the frame is stronger than one that bolts to the factory cage location, but
cost will increase and you won't be able to get the cage off as easily or at
all.
-
Restraint Mounts - Make sure the cage includes a bar
behind the front seats for attaching shoulder harnesses. Shoulder harnesses
should be attached slightly below your shoulder level. If the cage does not
allow for this, find another cage. Restraints should be as short as
possible, and mounting them down on the floor seriously affects their
effectiveness.
-
Head Clearance - Make sure that all parts of the cage
are sufficiently away from all passenger heads.
