beleive me if your on anything bigger than a 250ex you can see the tire marks in the snow at full throtle.

but i enjoy as much snow as possible , makes for some trick snowboarding trips

[underpowered]

i like about 6 inches, 4 wears off too quick. 6 usually last a while, but as long as me have snow, im happy

[TheFontMaster]

Powder, lots and lots of powder. I ride quads, but snowboarding comes first:eek2:

[Atkins]

I hate snow, but enough to make the streets real bad so I can ride the streets all day long.

[mxdad]

8-12" So we can hammer the roads!!!

[400exrules]

i want about 6 inches of snow, but the most we ever get is like, 2.....and it melts by the next day

[theTman]

as much as possible...i love snowmobiling and snowbording

[Honda400exrox]

If I had a quad it would prolly be 6 inches of powder, but that only lasts for the first few weeks of winter, then we get like 3 or 4 feet, which makes for good snowmobling:D

[JDiablo]

Whatever the amount is so there is no school,and state emergency.

[deathman53]

no snow, I absolutley hate snow, makes everything a pain in the ***.

[vinson581]

snow is a pain in the *** but road riding at all hours of the night is just a blast. its so open and going on the highways on a quad isnt a everyday thing :D

[Hon300ex]

people around me called the cops today for riding on the road with 4 inches:mad: i dont know what to do i wish the people would just come out of their houses and ask us to stop because we would stop

[Honda TRX250ex]

5 feet sounds good:devil:

what did the cops say

[Hon300ex]

well we had just put are quads in my freinds garage but i imagine he have would he taken are names and were we live. we know most of neighbors well and we asked a few of them if they would care if we rode on the street and they said nahh just have fun. i wouldnt care im someone came out and told us not to ride on the road because we would have stopped but i dont like how they were being sneaky and not saying anything. i know its illegal, but we live in a small neighborhood on a not busy road. o well what can you do?:ermm:

[400ex28]

1FT

[onefast400ex]

Im gettin 8 inches tommorow so im goin to hit the streets.

[rollie]

No snow at all

[Quad18star]

Depends if I want to go out quadding or snowmobiling.

On the quad , usually just a few inches of snow is good .... 3-6 inches . For sledding , atleast 1 1/2 feet so that all the fallen branches and stumps are covered .... 4 feet or more for powder riding .

I took my 450 out today for the first time in almost 1 1/2 years ... there was only about 2 inches of snow covering the ground , but it sure made for some good sliding around corners on the road . Sucked out on the lake though .... time to put the studded tires on . :macho

I've blasted down the lake with my 450 with over a foot of snow . Once you get going just hold it to the bar and lean back as far as you can so that the front tires are barely touching . It's kind of fun ..... just be prepared for sudden change of directions and hold on tight in case the tires dig in . 5th gear wide open and having the front tires stick can catch you by surprise ..... but you'll know what happened after you've picked all the snow out of your helmet !!!!:grr:

f'in right doggy

[Plante400]

i like the normal 2-3 feet we usually get:p

8 inches is my favorite

[Mxjunkie]

3-4

stays, then goes away..


Anything more stays for too long and pisses me off..

i like zero inches. we have like a inch or 2 and i get stuck non stop with my 400ex.

[bigbadbrad]

well that depends if you mean in a storm or a season

for a storm i say about a foot or more at a time, enough to bother cleaning with my plow truck and enough to get out of school also.

for a season after adding up the all the snowstroms i would say about 5-8 feet to keep the sledders happy and to keep them on vacation longer

[z400roosteR]

anything......please:(

You get stuck with only 1 or 2 inches ???? I didn't think that was even possible .... heck I've seen Power Wheels trucks blast through that much with ease .

Might be time for new tires on the 400ex if 1 - 2 inch is giving you problems !!!! :p

[Trevor]

from 6-8 inches

[400exc]

well i get stuck in some parts of my yard with 2 inches of snow. and theirs like a half inch thick of hard packed snow on road and drive way and i have to push it with the throtle on so i can get mooving or i jest sit their spinning in the same spot. and i have bran new kenda 18"

I like it about 6-8 inches so when it catches u off guard n throws u off it doesnt hurt n the handlebars are on the snow n dont reach the ground

[Hondadudeehhhh]

i like 70 degrees and zero inches of snow or rain. I cant wait to move down south :devil:
