I personally don't know about the 360. Haven't heard good OR bad about it. Check out the "Kawasaki" thread here.
Good luck!!!!

Well it doesn't sound like you've heard from a woman on this subject!!! Iam 5' 115lb. yes I really am LOL and I ride a 00' Kodiak and LOVE IT!!!! In fact I've rode the rancher, a Polaris, but none of them were as " comfortable" as the Kodiak, yes they are more $$$ but worth it I think. Mine goes on the trail, to the dunes, and winch's people out regularly. Thought you might like a womans opinion. Also my husband and brothers get get on it and also have a good time. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Thought I should add that the auto and push button 4X4 is awesome and I love to have the stability that it offers, sometimes I chicken out on the rough trails but my husband can take it through ANYTHING[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img] hope this helps ya out!!

Have you had a chance to ride a kawi 360 yet? I can get a new 360 for a few hundred more than used Kodiak. Kawi also has pretty good $ deals right know!

Rowdy-- Be sure to check/consider the weight of that P-360, I heard they were "porkers". Hear they weighed almost as much as the P-650! Don't know that to be true, but it is a consideration. My P-650 weighs 604lbs. DRY/635 Trail-ready.

Hi Rowdy, well NO I haven't had a chance to ride the Kawi as of yet. I was just reading about the weights from trx450 and the Kodiak weighs about 555lbs. I know Yamaha has good deals right now too I think they are like $49 a month but anyway GOOD LUCK!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] GO TEAM BLUE

Went to dealer to look at 360 looks good a little smaller than 650 looked like it would fit the bill. Then I took a test ride my feet were still buzzing after I got off!! 650 must have spoiled me but that thing had a bad vib right a slow trail speed so it's off my list. I may just get her a 300 auto 2x4 price is right and no buz.
