Goes good...I'm sure the light weight of it helps.

Granted, all the snow here is frozen/crusty from the super cold weather, and isnt too deep...so traction is decent. Once I finish the break in, the Realtors go on, and then I'll be roosting up the white stuff....just like the pic in my avatar...

The trx is awsome in the snow. It is better than my yfz in the snow. My yamaha just spins.

As I posted in the other thread, 15-20 degrees here, with choke on, its started in 1-2 kicks. In general, its that way all the time. One time, it did take me a few more kicks (3 or 4) to get it lit.

I rode yesterday up on Greenwood Lake NY. It went great! My friend had a 250r with more clearance and I did pretty well riding considering the snow was a little deep.
