The Prairie® 360 4x4 increases the
versatility and fun factor of the baseline
Prairie 360 platform with an advanced
four-wheel-drive system. This combination
gives farmers, ranchers and recreational
users a practical ATV that’s ready
to get dirty, haul heavy loads, and explore
challenging terrain.
Moving the Prairie 360
4x4 ATV along is the steadfast 362cc air-cooled,
single cylinder, four-stroke engine combined
with Kawasaki’s continuously variable
transmission (CVT). With high and low
forward gears plus reverse, the CVT enables
the engine to operate in its optimal rpm
range, providing the rider maximum torque
regardless of speed or riding conditions.
The Prairie 360 4x4 ATV
utilizes dependable shaft drive and gives
the rider the added benefit of selectable
four-wheel drive operation. At the flip
of a switch, the Prairie 360 4x4 rider
can engage all four wheels for added traction
in adverse riding conditions. The Prairie
360 4x4 utilizes a limited-slip front
differential, so steering remains light
and precise. When maximum traction is
needed, the rider can utilize Kawasaki’s
Variable Front Differential Control by
pulling a lever on the left handlebar
to send power to both front wheels. When
maximum traction is no longer needed,
the rider simply releases the lever—a
simple and effective system.
Stopping power for the
Prairie 360 4x4 is provided by dual front
disc brakes and Kawasaki’s sealed,
oil-bathed, multi-disc rear brake system.
For added stopping power,
the Prairie 360 4x4 features the Kawasaki
Engine Brake Control, which uses engine
compression to help slow the ATV under
certain conditions.
The Prairie 360 rides
on supple MacPherson strut front suspension
with 6.7 inches of travel, while rear
suspension duties are handled by a sporty,
single-shock aluminum swingarm with 7.1
inches of travel. It also features a large,
comfortable saddle and full-sized floor
boards with adjustable footpegs for maximum
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.
Authentic Kawasaki Accessories
are available through Kawasaki dealers.
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.
