Yamaha bruins in small creeks...will they float if u get off.......and as long as u get off and hold up the rear end no water will get to the belt

 

i dont know about the bruin, but i did hear that the older foremans float... belly up, but its still beter than at the bottem.

 

it might float,,,,,,but not by much,,,,and if it was,,,,,it wouldnt be running

 

my wolvey floated in my pond when I got off it I still had that 23".

 

why wouldnt it be running

 

for it to be floating,,,it would be almost entirely under water

it would need a good snorkel setup,,,,or it would suck water

same with the cvt

 

main thing in water is if u get in really deep to get off and lift it up and pull somewhere where its out and try to keep the throttle going as high as it goes to keep water out of yur exhaust...any quad will float because of the tires...trust me.I know ive got fully submerged with a grizz and it floated when i barely lifted up on it....

but the main thing is to keep it out of the deep water period and if water does get in there and it dies DO NOT START IT BACK UP until you tip it upside down to let the water leak out

man my hands hurt from typing all this but hope it helps

 

It depends on how deep the creek is. ive put mine in somewhere around 2 feet of mud and it didnt float. im not gonna be the one to try this one. let someone else do it

 

same here.lol.
