i bet that was fun to clean up:eek2: i used to love mud when i first got into riding, but now i try to stay clean. less time cleaning it, and less parts screwed up from mud sounds good to me:)

i did that once on my 300 and decided to never do it again. taking 2 days to clean it wasnt to appealing

yah, first day out on my 400ex i got covered in mud......needless to say......i go around most mud holes instead of through them now.:o

cleaning sucks

mudding is definitly fun, and the razr2's let u get through alot.. but yea cleanign is exciting.. espeacially after the mud concretes to the head and head pipe

presure washer does wonders when it comes time to cleening mud.


I usually keep it cleen at the begining of the ride, but on the way home. well instead of slowing down to go through the puddle I try to skip across it, and sometimes I make it with out getting wet. I will poast some pics sometime soon.

done that alot and after last night i remebered how much i like my little $70 power washer. the quad lost atleast 15 pounds. tried to cross a feild lugging it in second and hit about every soft spot in it and gave up, just plowed thru everything in third.

ya it took me 3hrs to clean with a regular hose..and just wiping the mud off with my hand...the HD's let me go threw anything and everything...great mud slingers...and that was at haspin acres in indiana...i paid 20 bucks for a weekend of riding..and it rained all weekend..needless to say im not gonna be out my 20 bucks....so i rode..and thats like 20 mins of riding time..

blah...that stuff is bad for bearings, seals, and bushings...i had a 250x that i used to play in the mud with all the time...replacing axle bearings at 80-90 bucks a pop wont fun

i knew i should not do it but i tried anyway. the guy behind me had to pull me out I ended up saying screw it and bought a ute to bash in the mud. now my 400 can stay clean.:D
