remember to lubricate everything when your done riding through water. Grease all your Zerks and apply a lubricating (teflon based preferably) oil to places that need it. (WD-40 IS NOT A LUBRICATING OIL, WD stands for WATER DISPLACEMENT, it will gum up and do everything opposite oil should do after time!)

This issue was on the 800. I just got the pics from the guys I met at the trails. I know it is not too worthy of mentioning now, but this is the trip that I found out about the slit in the breather hose. I wonder, if water went in the hose and then down into the engine, when engine died and no pressure on inside off hose. You'll see the pic before too long!

I now have a virgin quad, Is there anything that I could do to the radiator to help clean up time?

Nice one Instigater! Way to give her heck.
I wish we had some holes like that here in Michigan. I'd like to try it. Thanks for the pictures guys.

BassBlaster, you are correct, It is Wayne. About 3 minutes from P2 on the blue trail!

You guys may not believe me, but I had traction. I was putting along when someone wanted me to stop for a pic. Then, it hesitated and stalled. From now on, if they want a pic either, have the camera ready, or by your own stinking quad and do your own photo shoot. I haven't got time to dilly dally or sign pictures either!

lol....I have a buddy that got stuck in that same hole on his Big Bear. Had to be pulled out by my father in laws Sportsman 700. As soon as he pulled him out a fella came through there on a Kodiak and made it. My buddy was embarrased and went and bought a Kodiak that week.
