I've read that there motors are stronger than the prairie but the frames are weaker.

go with the kawie, The can-am cost too much more. You could save the money and buy the warranty, put tires on and a cdi, and come out with a better machine for the same $

best sport utility ever made; if Kawasaki would get their head out of their ()() and upgrade something once in a while. That thing was around for how many years without any real upgrades and still never lost a shootout that I've heard of.

You are right. The Prairie has yet to loose a shootout to date. And it was still mentioned in January's Dirt Wheels in the big bore shootout that it wasn't even in! Too bad they're gone. Oh well, I have two.
