- - Honda is good? (https://www.kawasakiforums.com/forum/off-topic-6/honda-good-17993/)

So I got a new Rancher 400 4x4 for christmas and I took it out in the woods. Well there is a place with old train tunnels that are filled with water. I was getting near the end of the 2nd one when the water came up past my exhaust. I was getting scared because I don't know if the rancher has a built in snorkel or not. So I eased off the gas like a dumby and it stalled. I was about to **** myself and I had my step dad ( the one who bought the quad) pull me out. I tried starting it and it was just blowing out water from the exhaust. So I figured I'd let it sit and pray to god that it didn't hydro lock. So i hear dripping and I guess there is a hole in bottom of the airbox because i heard water dripping out and after the dripping stopped I tried starting it and it fired up like nothing. After that incident I kept riding and came to a muddy hillside. I put it in 4wd and in automatic, Punched the gas and it went straight up. I mean this ledge was a 90 degree angle.

I still love my KLX250S though:)

I actually started my cat 4whlr today after it sat for a long time and my kid was rippin up the snow out in the field.It's easy to get a different toy out of the garage now that two are at my fathers.

Well my bike is clean now or else I would show a picture. I still can't believe the power this thing has. I climbed every hill in two wheel drive. The one hill that was litterally straight u and down I used 4wd but other than that it was beastly.

RE: Honda is good?

hey will, check the air box, there should be a clear sealed up tube looking thing on the air box to drain in that situation. most if not all atv's have them set up like that.
