Introduction
Delivering reliable, all-terrain
4x4 performance in a stealthy package
How to improve on the prime example of mid-sized ATV versatility
and fun, the Prairie® 360 4x4, is a tough question to answer.
Kawasaki meet the challenge by equipping it with a stealthy coating
of Realtree® APG HD® camouflage. Already a favorite
of farmers, ranchers and recreational users, this camouflaged
version broadens the appeal to hunters and outdoor enthusiasts
seeking a stealthy platform to get them afield and back hassle
free.
A major part of the Prairie 360 4x4's appeal is its reliable
and practical combination of a 362cc air-cooled, single cylinder,
four-stroke engine, continuously variable transmission (CVT)
and reliable shaft drive. The CVT enables the engine to operate
in its optimal rpm range, providing maximum torque regardless
of speed or riding conditions and offers high and low forward
gears plus reverse.
A switch to Maxxis tires for 2010 helps the Prairie 360 4x4 conquer
tough off-road conditions. If additional traction is needed,
the rider can send power to all four wheels at the flip of a
switch. A limited-slip front differential helps keep steering
light and precise, even in four-wheel drive. In extreme conditions
the rider can use Kawasaki's Variable Front Differential Control
lever to lock the front diff, sending power to both front wheels.
Once maximum traction is no longer needed, the rider simply releases
the lever-a simple and effective system.
Stopping power on the Prairie 360 4x4 is provided by a combination
of dual front disc brakes and Kawasaki's sealed, oil-bathed,
multi-disc rear brake system. Further speed control is provided
by the Kawasaki Engine Brake Control, which uses engine compression
to help slow the ATV under certain conditions.
The MacPherson strut front suspension and a single-shock aluminum
swingarm rear suspension give the Prairie 360 4x4 a supple ride
with 6.7 and 7.1 inches of travel front and rear, respectively.
A large, comfortable saddle and full-sized floor boards with
adjustable footpegs further maximize rider comfort.
Its steel front and rear cargo racks can carry a combined weight
of 242 pounds. Other conveniences include powerful dual halogen
headlights, and a hitch bracket is standard, permitting the rider
to tow 1,100 pounds-the highest towing capacity in its class.
Owners can expand the versatility of their Prairie ATV via the
extensive line of Authentic Kawasaki Accessories.
As with all off-highway vehicle recreation, Kawasaki encourages
ATV riders to ride responsibly and to respect the environment.
Kawasaki will pay first-time buyers of a new Kawasaki ATV $100
for completing an ATV rider safety course conducted by the ATV
Safety Institute (ASI). Interested consumers can call ASI toll-free
at 800-887-2887.
