Nice Grizzly! You should be in "low" in situations like that, especially when there is resistance like mud, incline, or towing. High range will destroy the belt quickly otherwise.
You gotta build up to that. I destroyed an engine because I was 19 and thought I knew better than the manufacturer, so I raced a truck when I got 2 blocks away from the dealership with my BRAND new bike. By 1,200 miles the top end sounded like it was coming apart. I generally try to avoid buying anything with less than 5000 miles on it now because I don't like to do the brake-in period, and don't wanna get something that some retard like that guy trades in after 500 miles that is ruined already but that the symptoms haven't shown up yet. In the couple times recently that I've HAD to buy brand new, I follow the brake-in instructions to a tee! (Another 20 miles to go on the 2024 Grizzly XTR I just bought 2 weeks ago)
If u got it brand new, I Hope you read the brake in instructions or at least listened to the sales person when they said how to brake it in. If you romp on it right away like this moron did, it won't last more than a couple thousand miles at best.
The gas tank is vented to the back axle so it probably sucked up some water and thats why it shut off just check where things are vented before you do that lol
U better check the air box filter cause u now have water in it.. yeah ur lucky u didn't destroy the engine there cause u definitely got water in the motor.. idk how it suppose to sound but for some reason it dont sound right to me.. the exhaust sounded different there when u pulled it out of the water but idk
Reminds me when I bought a brand new 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland went straight to my buddies house and backed it into his swamp flooding the whole interior.
Your bike stalled cause steam was sucked into the air intake and choked the engine out, id suggest snorkels if you want to play in water (not deep) and your gas tank vent hose is down by your rear diff i suggest relocating that higher so it doesnt suck up water into your gas tank.
Mud like put her in low and she'll really go ! Diff lock should have been able to get you out either in reverse or forward. You gas tank very runs down the back tube almost to differential. In water it will suck water up into the tube and can kill motor. Either reroute it up by front or at least under the seat. Enjoy your grizzly they're a awesome machine....
Lol. When you buy that new quad and your buddy influenced you into doing something you shouldn't have haha. The only ones laughing at you are the ones from the sideline while their looking at 13k floading in water. But it brings great memories and tears.
Nah they can handle it mine has been beat on way worse then this for the last 6 years since new never ever broke. I have got water in it a few times but then I just pull the plug drain it and it’s good to go.
its a grizzly. it will be fine. Yamaha has constant tension on the belt with their CVT system, which makes it more reliable and less likely to burn a belt. other brands will allow the CVT to slip because they don't have the separate clutch system which is why they go through belts more often.
lmmfao . i did this to our arctic cat 1000 15 minutes after delivery . i would have given anything for pic of the wife's face when i came out of that woods .
The 1st mile is always the hardest🤜💥🤛

give me anxiety watching him hammer on it in high and the tires not spinning. Prayers to that clutch and belt.
But it’s a grizzly it’ll be aight
Yeah, the guy was clearly an idiot.
Awesome job getting that out young man.
Bro that winch is sick. Glad ur having fun💪🏼
Nice Grizzly!! My Honda Rancher 420 4x4 is the same color as yours.
Good to see your enjoying your machine to the fullest. Most people keep it in the garage and pretend to test it.
Exactly

It's 8/24/24 and I have a bran new 2023 King Quad 750 with 2 miles on it and you know what, I wouldn't do that!
I absolutely 100% truly agree with you. I would not spend that type of money on a ATV and treat it like that.💯💯💯👏👏👏
Too funny. I just bought my first 4 wheeler today and I can see this exact thing happening to me too.
Just senddddd it haha

Nice Grizzly! You should put in low when you're winching! 🤦♂ 😁
Yea that my bad thanks i love it it was me riding its my buddies channel
The gas tank is vented to the back axle so it probably sucked up some water and thats why it shut off just check where things are vented before you do that lol
I think it’s the steam from water getting pulled into intake
Nah, the Griz just didn't want to be ridden by an idiot!
When it said all terrain vehicle, pretty sure it didn't mean use as a boat or submarine.
He paid for all terrains and darn it he is going to use all terrains. lol
💯💯💯👏👏👏
Little fyi keep tension on your winch when your putting it in or your gonna get a birds nest an it’s not fun I learned the hard way
U better check the air box filter cause u now have water in it.. yeah ur lucky u didn't destroy the engine there cause u definitely got water in the motor.. idk how it suppose to sound but for some reason it dont sound right to me.. the exhaust sounded different there when u pulled it out of the water but idk
Just water in the muffler packing changing the exhaust note, the air box on these is above the seat.

Front left tire not even turning, lock the front diff.
Had 20 miles on mine love dif lock

Dang boy low range is there for a reason

I get it tho bro o got stock tires and d9 t wanna beat it up I did same shit
That rider is one badass guy
HA
This is why you dont buy used quads.....LOL
Oh yeah 👍
LoL Not exactly how I broke in my grizzly. But hey, to each his own right. The grizz will take almost any abuse you throw at it.
Next time in that situation, turn the quad off and leave ot neutral. Just a little advice
Low range dif lock and get dirty yerself on left side walking it back a bit then giver
There is a name for this ....... now what was it ?? Oh yah ..... Hill Billy
I just don’t understand the obsession with taking a four wheeler in deep water and mud, why ruin such a nice bike.
This was definitely not intentional by any means!
Ok, you had to smoke your belt there. It looked like you were in high. If you were the belt has some issues now lol
Nah they can handle it mine has been beat on way worse then this for the last 6 years since new never ever broke. I have got water in it a few times but then I just pull the plug drain it and it’s good to go.
More money than brains. Lol
Low gear no h
It’s a Kodiak, first of all 😂
No it is not a Kodiak it is a GRIZZLY.
Tell me your a rookie without telling me you are a rookie…😂😅😅 R.i.p powertrain
