According to the new dirt wheels they have a spy photo of a new kawasaki high performance machine and they were talking to various people in kawasaki and in the atv world,and they said they woodnt be surprised (wink wink) that it was the new 650 v-twin from the praire with a auto transmission..I dunno how a new sport auto wood be accepted tho,personally id rather see them pout that money into a race machine,but it should be good anyways.

kawasaki hasn't done anything in the sport atv world in years. Even their zx-7r streetbike hasn't been updated for about 5 years or so. If they do any type of sport quad it is a step in the right direction. Also, if it's half the quad their 650 prairie is, us raptor guys are in trouble.

That picture has been on the internet for a couple months. It is the kawasaki with 400ex rear plastic and trimed banshee front plastic. They look like 4-stroke pipes to me.
