Built around Kawasaki's atv motorcycle platform, the 2010 Kawasaki Prairie 360 relies on a 362 cc (22.1 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 80.0 x 72.0 mm (3.1 x 2.8 inches) with a 8.3:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Prairie 360 measures 276.1 kg (609 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 909 mm (35.8 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,252 mm (49.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 13.62-liter (3.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
