wouldn't you get stuck in a snowbank on say an ex? I'm talking about the 4-5 ft snowbanks that you sink right into when going 10mph. I can do it on our utilities if I keep the speed up. With 2wheel drive you gotta get stuck like crazy, guess I'll find out this winter, lol.

snow riding is the greatest you can be going top speed and throw it sidways and mostliky not flip. just make sure you dont dig in. but if you do wreck in snow its like landing on a 32 degree matress. and paddle tires are great to. havent rode my 450 in snow yet but im sure itll be great just have fun

WISTECH, you are either the fastest man on an atv, or you are full of it. There is no way a atv will keep up with a sled on the trails. Even in 20-30 mph trails through the woods. Sleds have way more power, and handle a hell of a lot better in these conditions. You should really look over your shoulder, that line of sleds behind you would like it if you would pull over and let them buy. Sledding Rules!!!!!!

I TOTALLY agree with scrambler. The AtV is fun but even on a 700 V piped ect ect what am I pushing.......45-50 HP very tops??

800 Sled piped, ect ect 160 HP!!! I read somewhere that the power to weight to performance ratio of a 7-800 sled was equivilant to a Formula I race car.. Even the asphalt drag sleds are beating funny cars!!...

Quading is a blast but after any more than a foot of snow, the quad stays parked and the sled does the chewing

Check out my photos!!!

I see you have a Scrambler. My neighbor has one (well some guy that owns land beside us) and he brings his scrambler up to his land and drives it around. I think he has a 400scrambler (I know it's AWD so if the 400 isn't AWD, then he has the 500). He used to drive his MXZ around in winter but it hasn't snowed that much the past few winters so he drives his quad all over in Winter and his dad has a big 4X4. Anyways, the Scrambler looks to be the perfect quad for snow. I can drive my 250trx in snow, but it isn't all that fun when I can't move at all[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] frigin 2wd[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Heh you got that right. I can only dream of feeling the power of a 700 (I'm assuming it's a 700 Triple). I have a nice Formula Mach 1 583 and it accelerates pretty darn fast. I think I can get it up to about 110MPH or maybe even more, but I will have to get clocked cause I'm only guessing.

I was talking to a guy from a Ski-Doo dealer and asked him if there's a noticeable difference between a 600 and an 800. His reply was "it's like comparing day and night my friend". I feel incredible power in my 583 and am waiting on the day I drive an 800.

Yeah the Scramblers or any 4wd quad for that matter, will do some wicked donuis on ice. Just pin the throttle and hang on... For dear life.

I'm getting dizzy just thinking about it...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
