Yes. First you K&N, clutch and pipe the Grizz. Then you stuff a potatoe, real tight, in the exhaust of the Prarie. That move will make the race close but to garantee a win you will have to remove one of the rear tires from the Prarie. With these mods you will beat the Prarie by about 2 legths in a 1/8 mile race. Sorry about that but I couldn't resist. I had the good fortune of riding (for a whole day) a Prarie 700 this last fall. I own a Grizz with many mods and the Prarie hands down beats the Grizz in every aspect except ride comfort. The Prarie does beat the Grizz in ride when you are beating down the trail real hard. The Prarie was much more predictable in corners and rough. Am waiting to see what Suzuki is doing with the Prarie and I'm sure the Grizz will be gone.

I have rode a praire 650 and it will throw your stomach into your throat. The Grizz is a better bogger than a Prairie in that aspect but if Kawi or Suzuki ever decides to put IRS on one or their machines then the Grizzly will be mounted on antique collectors walls

My Grizzly would run very well against the 650 Prairies but the new 700 there is no way. It is like night and day. The slow speed ride and probably rutted mud goes to the Grizzly but I do believe the Prairie will take it every where else. That power is awesome.
