I can do better than my sportsman in the mud with my scrammy if I keep it pegged going in and not let up til I get out of the hole. The bad thing is if you do this you will get covered. The sportsman hammered through a hole keeps you alot cleaner

 

who rides a quad to stay clean

 

I agree!

Anyone can lift a big bore 4x4 and go thru everything. I like the challenge of my scrambler when I ride with guys that have big utility quads w/ more ground clearance. Makes for a fun ride. Love my scrammy!!

 

This is me crossing an outlet on my scrammy...It was plenty deep for me and had a wicked current. Doesn't look like much but its the out let that feeds off of our 5 finger lakes here in central new york so it gets alot of water flow. Were I cross is the clamest spot. HAHA i love crossing the water its alot of fun. I tried to do it in 2wd and i didn't even move 1 foot put it in 4x4 and it just starts eating through the water....

Wife's TB 330 runs great in the mud and even better now with 25" mudlites over factory rubber. Some days u just got to go out and play in the mud, thats what 4 wheelin is all about. Get a power washer and do a good cleanin when you get back and you should not have any problems. Nice clip pgt have been through a few spots like that and their alot of fun.

 

I know i love 4 wheeling. The worst part for wheeling for me is waiting to go four wheeling. My machine has been in the shop for close to 4 weeks now ive been praticly sitting on the phone waiting for them to call me im going nuts and as it slowly gets colder and colder i could be riding but now this damn shop is taking there swaaaaaeet old time.

 

Even w/ the smallest sport type tires I could find, Kenda 20" for sport riding, it's is so amazing how great the quad still is in all situations like climbing a muddy, wet, leaf covering very deep top soil up a really long steep hill, this thing just screams up & then even in mud that I start to bottom out in, which isn't too high now w/ the small tires, the 4wd gets me through even across deep streams (keep the belt dry I relocated my vent). I love the machine.

I forgot to mention deep snow. I helmet cam video taped my winter ride 2 years ago w/ PA ATVing club at Marienville PA which people couldn't believe the footage & bad the conditions were. I was the only sport type quad to make & believe I just barley made it. I got stuck 3 times. The snow was 1foot deep in the tracks & MUCH deeper than that everywhere else which I was in most of the time. Hard to stay in the tracks at speed. I studded my tires but they're only 20" sport tire & small knobblies like Holeshots. All 2wd's had to turn around & many 4wd's didn't make it either for whatever reason.
