Default z400 in the snow?

How is a z400 in the snow? Theres an average of 5 inches of snow on the ground around here and just wondered how it does in the snow.

I was riding in 7 inches over the weekend with my Z and it did pretty good for a 2wd quad. depends on the tires u have to, but i would say pretty much as good as a 2wd quad will do in the snow

all quads are pretty much even in the snow if they have fresh tires. if you going to be running in snow alot, try Paddle masters, their paddles that are made to run in snow.

i got mine stuck in a foot and a 1/2 of snow. But it will do fine if i ride in under 8 or 9 inches. I bottom out thats the only reason i ever get stuck.

I can make it threw 12 inches of snow. If u sit on the back of the seat and put it in 3rd gear u can go but it is really slow, but it can be done this is what i have been doing. Have fun riding.
