Mine did the same on my 04 700 prairie after first ride.Brought it back to dealer it was a loose oil pump pressure regulator.They had to pull side off motor and tighten,fine since.

If that's the case (where the relief valve came loose), DO NOT run the engine!
You will have a severe engine damage due to the lack of (forced) lubrication, starting at the top end first.

i had the same problem the relief valve your taking about is going to hard to get at unless you tear your engine down and split the crankcase what my dealer told me to do is remove the rear swing arm and the you can see the valve and get in there and tighten it the dealer said it is a common problem i guess unfortunetly mine was tight but the oil pump was in about a dozen pieces and accordining to the dealer i had the only quad from kawi that had that happen to good luck
