I got a 2002 kawasaki prairie 400 4x4 that cuts out in reverse and want pull. what is the problem.

 

Welcome to the forum mike. I assume you know there is a reverse limiter on you left handlebar near the choke. I believe on yours it is a gray button. Press it while your going in reverse and should give you full power.

 

Nice choice of a four wheeler[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] hold down the reverse button, or do like some and hotwire it so its allways on and forget about it. I would also like to disable the starting in gear switch so I can start while in gear. Havent found any clear directons on that either.

 

the reverse cut out switch is in behind the coolent reservoir i just unhooked the wire and taped it up you lose the reverse light but its alot better for plowing and when your stuck and off pushing . just be careful they flip REAL EASYwhen your going fast in reverseand cut the wheels also be careful if younger riders use your bike

 

Would that be on a 360 prairie also? 400prairie XLT do you like those big tires? I am wondering because my unlce and I are thinking of new tires. Do you spin those heavy things in the mud good? I know the prairie 360 dont have alot of power but does the 400 have that much more to spin those heavy tires?

 

They dont feel that much heavier, but they do feel bigger and I lost about 5mph on the top end. They spin good in the soupy mudd, when you need them too. They grip much better in the thicker stuff and dont spin as well. But thats a good thing because you are moving forward! I have only rode a P360 once, and I could feel a loss of low end torque compared to the P400. Unfortunatly thats where you will need extra power with big wheels. There are a few people running the 26" lites on P360's though and they do just fine.
