Cooper Nash imagine being that ignorant it’s 20+ year old bike and most of em get rode the hell out of and still start and go 10 year old Polaris can’t even handle a little farm work
My Dad still drives his 1988 Honda TRX300 4x4 that I grew up riding. Only thing he’s had to replace was one starter, one battery, a seat cover and tires. It’s a tank!!
@@fulldrawoutdoors1685 300s will only spin 26s at a good rate other than that your gonna need to have a gear reduction but can ams can run up to 34 stock I’ve had 300 they are good bikes but they ain’t spinning any tire that’s bigger then 26
hahaha!! all the things to carry on your front rack & you got a set of bolt cutters. I've been this deep on my buddy's sportsman 850 (he has snorkels I don't) all good until I got high centered on a rock. Took my Outty, snatch block, & a sketchy ass dead tree to get it out.
I'm a canam and honda man, but I must say in terms of everything besides power hondas are better. Also, 570s have plenty of power so I'm assuming you've never drove one.
How many times do you change your wheel bearings a month, lol, I use to change mine once because I always had it in water, literally every day after school, I drowned it out 3 times and it still ran strong, wasn't a Honda though, it was a Suzuki, junk bomb lol
my Kawasaki prarie went under 10 feet of water during the recent flooding in Louisiana and it still started right up after...poured water out the tailpipe but idled great after 5-10 minutes of water coming out I took it for a ride and it was just like it was before😂
I have a 2016 Honda rubicon 500, it will not idle underwater unless I keep on the throttle. I really don’t wana change the exhaust out is there anyway to make it idle under water? Snorkeled and rad relocated
I've had Hondas since 1983. Just recently bought a Polaris Ranger Crew because it fit my family needs and Honda didn't make a sxs like the crew. As soon as they do I'll sale this one and get the Honda.
Is that 520fa? And still running after that? In finland we have such a big problems with transmission... All the time fault and fault. I havent even been on the water yet but having huge problems with shifting...all the time goin -- Desided to sell my 520 away because can not find solution for faults of transmission. Got codes for every ride i had...this 520fa is junk. I had hondas since 2009 and these atv's has been great. Now i have desided that this honda is really my last...nothing buy the problem. And the is only 25h on.
I set in a pond handle bars deep the other day on my brute for like 30 minutes fishing 😂 and the box was dry I did a lot of snorkel work though it’s sealed tight lol
Sometimes there are holes in the back of the displays that allows water to get it and ruin the displays. Like the Polaris/Suzuki/Yamaha have holes to seal up. Just a heads up.
Does anybody know of an aftermarket exhaust that isn't extremely loud because I do a lot of night riding in some woods in some urban areas and don't want to be waking anybody up.. But need a exhaust for the power gain..
my brother had a 250 artic cat and he locked rear ends with my buddy on his 350 Honda and the only reason my brother didn't drag him around was cuz my brother artic cat kept popping out of gear now keep in mind my brothers artic cat was ragged out at this point in time but he done and went places that Honda tried but couldn't make it but I'm not trashing Honda or anything you like them cool I just thought I would throw that story out there. I own a 2014 grizzly 550 and that thing is a beast
What mods do you run on this beast besides a snorkel? I swamped my arctic cat last weekend and had to pull the plugs to flush the water out.. Your vids make me want buy a bran new rubicon lol
except ostacruiser has proven it about canam's. kinda how youve proven it with honda. you can nay say all you want, i know guys with canams that have had no issues and working on over 10k miles still strong. just as deep water. CVT works. thats why everyone uses it, and its a hell of a lot cheaper to make. theres no arguing that. Hondas transmission only works because of the lack of power. Look at toyota for instance, they make great sedans and old vintage 4x4's but their new pickups are all junk. Youre always beating on canams but theyre still the champ these days.
Puppy love ur vids man!!! If you dont mind i want all the upgrades you got on your red Foreman! Send me a list of the upgrades plz Can i buy a snorkel kit online and it fit and work like the ones you make?
I forgot to put my overflow hose on my carburetor and I ran that 300 all through river rats and around the house a few weeks before I took off the carb it had sand all in it
@mudpuppy I just want to say thanks and keep it up! Im a huge Honda fan since my first Honda recon back in 03' lol now I'm highly considering getting the Rubicon over the foreman I recently own
I'm not a water riding Karen but do they cause you any Grief in Florida for water crossing or riding In creeks? I got written a $500 ticket last year for a river crossing that was part of the trail and I thought it was drastically unfair considering the circumstances. Most place's fish and game like to cause problems for us guys that like going deep.
@@MudPuppyOffroad that's honestly were I should be! Love watching your videos new and old. You've given me lots of build ideas. Thanks for the great content
Yeah .when I'm not on the gas at all it feels like it's gone cut off when I'm not pullin a water wheelie like we got in some deep stuff and we had to float it and my pipe was under and felt like it was goona cut off
I just sold my 2001 Honda foreman 500 because the codes wouldn’t stop flashing and I was tired of dumping money into it. If it ran good I probably would still have it. I now own a 2014 can am xmr 650. Ridiculous!! Not even close to comparison.

Ho Hosko your brute force can’t do that, full of shit
This is funny because I’ve seen can ams idle under water for 30 min straight
"Thing runs better under water" We call that a submarine haha
Yeah Honda 300s are hard to break and easy to fix
Because they don’t have enough power to break anything

I'm confused, I do this all the time with no issues
ronald cuevas he’s just talking crap because he thinks can am suck yet he’s probably never even driven one
Chance Holmes he had one. Well at least the shit base model 570L.
im also a little confused. he acts like honda is the only brand that can go under water, lmao

I have a question!To make a snorkel the airbox need modified or the cvt come from the carburetor?
How do you keep your bike from floating ? I have a 2012 420 EPS on 29.5 wide outlaws ... The whole bike floats. Can't get the rear end down ...
29.5 widers are terrrible for that 14" wheels help
Mud Puppy Lol it floats almost like your rubicon did on 8 tires ... just not as stable . 29.5 skinnys do any better ?

Foot shift manual. The FAs do well in water for us too though
I set in a pond handle bars deep the other day on my brute for like 30 minutes fishing 😂 and the box was dry I did a lot of snorkel work though it’s sealed tight lol
Factory air box seal? Or silicon? Got a 18 and was wondering if factory seal is good enough
Factory
Have you heard of omc gaskets? They have one for 20 bucks. But alot of people are saying run factory seal
@@damonbridgmon7199 have them one my 300s not needed on Rubicons
@@MudPuppyOffroad sweet thanks Man! I hope the factory seal will hold for like 20 minutes. I'm gunna habe it smoke tested after I install the snorkel
It would be cool if u went back to the same channel and do the same on the renegade, I bet it will have zero issues at all
How did you get yours to Idol underwater
Now that you sre going to the pod, need to check and make sure no venting holes in the back before the screen gets ruined
what
Sometimes there are holes in the back of the displays that allows water to get it and ruin the displays. Like the Polaris/Suzuki/Yamaha have holes to seal up. Just a heads up.
honda is sealed :)
What year is that and what mods to idle/run underwater
30’ MotoHavoks
nothing like the sound of a honda underwater 😌
Looks like alligator territory 😜 🐊
So is this shaft driven or Chain?
Shaft
I put a 2005 Honda foreman 500 in water that deep before and it didn't have a snorkel but it still runs as good as ever
Man I wanna get a snorkel so bad for this sole reason I just have no clue on how to do it and dont wanna screw anything up lil

What happens if you run out ofgas

I hate how about exhaust pipe gets full of mud but it does run underwater awesome
why dont you run your vent lines inside the air box
there is a small vacuum in the air box which can in theory pull water in at times
Christian Amy oh okay gotcha
Lmfao I seen a canam under water for a hour and she just fine
Have you not seen ostacrusier do this he has done this a lot on the p trail on his old renagade 1k with the catvos lift

Most stock Atvs will float with just a little extra air in the tires.. I use 10psi when I know I'm going to ride deep water 😉

smoke a belt everyother ride
run extremely hot very uncomfortable (im sure thats not an issue in the ice up there lol)

NO front locker visco lock is a joke on laws
flimsy thin frame and bumpers and rack supports all cheap stamped steal
fenders give zero mud coverage and scratch easy
tiny dity side of air box causes lots of filter maintenance
