you could plow thru 4 feet of fresh powder? You mean you could slam thru a short snow drift? (even then I have my doubts) I would personally pay to see video of anyone on a four wheeler, let alone a 2x4 sport quad drive thru 4ft of snow.

They are indeed all Suzuki's with different plastic. 06 was the last year Kawi had the kfx400.

These do like to rev a little more than the 400ex, but you can change the front sprocket and it helps a lot on the trails.

Ha! I read and thought the same thing.

The 700r must be his "internet bike". He's so much cooler online...

I had an 01 Warrior (hence the name Warrior226) sold it and bought a Z400. Right before the new crop of these bad-*** 450's hit the market (go figure). All I do is trail ride, and alot of people are trail riding them 450's! You could probably pick up a descent, used Z for probably less than $3K now.

No I ment what I said,My Wolverine in 4x4 could plow through 4 ft of fresh powder no problem with ITP Mudlites,but try it on a 2x4 you will fail..If I can do it on my 350 Wolverine,dont you think those big-bore utes would mke childs play with fresh powder?? I have no video,some guy on a sled told me I looked like a white comet flying through the field,he said he could not see me or the ATV just a big white cloud and a cloud-trail ..

My Raptor will never ever see snow..
