Thinking of looking at a 2010 Brute 750 with low miles, it needs new headlights right off the get go but anything else I should be looking for with these machines?

4 wheel drive actuator has been always a issue. Easy to replace if fail but they are $400

I would take a good look over the fuses under the seat, that block has be known to fail.
Also take a good inspection of the front steering parts (I don't think they're factory greasable), when I had my 08 a few years back they develop slack in them causing a loose steering feeling.

I have also heard of some of them burning synthetic oil (mine included) but perfectly fine with dino oil

If you look hard enough you can find a cable shift for them.

I have an 08 that has been thru 2 fuel pumps, other n that nothing has failed that I haven't broken! If the pump does go you can buy the guts for it for about 1/8 the cost of Kawasaki parts
