Default Playing in the mud on the 850...

My little backyard mud pit..lol.....no match for the XP though..even in 2wd..but it is worse than it looks..if you try to ease through even in 4wd you'll be on the frame pretty quick..

Sorry for the crappy quality..taken with a regular camera...vid camera was dead so my wife grabbed the regulr camera..
Funny side note..since the regular camera won't zoom I tricked my wife into getting closer..she got a little muddy..you can hear her at the end..lol

Here's another..I was easing along..I did switch into 4wd for a second here instead of backing up and hitting it again..once i start moving again I went back to 2wd.

Actually, that's a pretty nice mud pit. Beats the heck out of the so-called mud pits that are a 3 foot hole filled with water.

LOL... took you 10 seconds to go through that pit, and it will take you 2 hours to clean up the quad.

Sorry to hear about wifey getting a little muddy. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

That looks like friendly mud. Out where we ride if you find mud it's like red clay, it does not just spray off, will stain the finish if left, and adds about 50 lbs to the quad before you can clean it off. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]

You know listening to it run the pit sounds like a high powered speed boat going across water! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

My son said... "Leave it like that... that's how a quad is supposed to look". LOL
