Default Prairie 300 vs 360...........

Aside from the fact that the 360 has selectable 2 and 4WD and that fron tdifferential that can be locked, I wanna ask- which one can prance around easier? I was always under the impression that the 360 with an additional 72cc's, the 300 is 290cc, remember- that it would clearly have an advantage. But I've been told that the P360 is quite notably down on the power scale and got the impressiong that the P300 had a little more spunk.
I have a Lakota 300 now, same engine as the P300- and couldn't be happier with it, but I could use 4WD..........
Thanks............

well i have rode both the 300 and the 360 which i own and the 360 is alot nicer becasue u dont have that 4wd engaged all the time on the 300 the 300 seemd to pull once u hook up and get some grip the 360 doesnt seem to me that it pulls and jerks once it gets grip wather its in4x4 and locked...the 360 has alittle more top and a little more low end the 300 seems to me where its an auto it seems to me that its undgeard compeard to the 360 yes i know te two are diffrent sizes but it just seem to me that the 300 could have some more guts under it

The 360 has the better motor. Dragged a 300 before and smoked him.

Even with the mods to my 360, My wifes 300 will take me every time off the line. I do run 25" tires on hers and 26" on mine thats probably be the big diffrence. The 300 is a higher compression motor than the 360 and Kawasaki has used that engine for years because it is a proven performer for it's size. I tend to like the 300 better than the 360 truth be known.

Thanks guys- I was leaning toward the 360 for it's features and slight sophistication over the 300, but recently found a detroit locker from HighLifter for the P300. Oh yeah- on another threat a fellow with a 360 commented concerns of the engine seeming to run at high rpm's when just moving along, he was told that it's the nature of the beast. Is this infact the condition of the quad, if so does the 300 act more normal..............
