Your mom...

27" tires.... At least I think that's what's on it.

pretty sure that was a RZR 800 trail

They are noisy in comparison to other machines, but I will take the noise as it is an extremely reliable machine.

Still love it, may upgrade to a 4 seater soon so the whole family can ride. No complaints whatsoever though.

I'm looking at a viking VI for the family this spring. I'm concerned about lack of power but love the idea of the entire family going at once.

If I do get a 4 seater it will probably be the yamaha wolverine x4 XTR 1000. I like my viking but if I were to change i want power, quiet, and smooth. I must be getting old.

Thanks Mr Green! Hopefully be doing some more videos after the first of the year. This year has been brutal on having fun lol.

It would be interesting. I guess it all would boil down to traction and how wet the ground is. I was ok for power, but I had my hands full getting traction.

So that radio is an SSV works radio. I cant lie I got rid of it shortly after this ride. Wasnt a fan of the sound quality for the money. I currently have a setup I piece mealed off amazon for about $100 that works GREAT!!!

Roddie the windows do get scratched a bit, but its to be expected. $400 vs $4000 for a hardtop I can replace them a few times and still be ahead. I do haul on an open trailer about 120 miles to camp and it does ok, mind you I keep an eye on it. I only leave it on in the winter, too dang hot in the summer!!! Last but not least thank you for the compliments, I have barely rode this year as we have been busy. I think I have only put about 65 miles on it since christmas. Just havent had time...

Do you close the windows when hauling? Someone said you should trailer it with the doors open but that seems like it would act like a parachute. Sorry I keep asking questions it is great to see someone that actually uses something.

Not a problem at all...I do trailer it with the doors zipped shut. I honestly worry more about the windshield than I do the soft top.

Brandon Corwin man that place looks sick. Shame I live all the way in Texas lol

nope, sure isnt...the gopro picks up all sorts of sounds. The one roof clamp rattles a little, that may be it.

Topgunviking Hard To Kill im running 26" itp mud lites with a 2" lift. I'm actually doing a clutch kit soon, as mines starting to slip a little.

Topgunviking Hard To Kill hopefully this summer we will get some more videos up, didn't have a whole lot of time last year to ride. this year I'm making time for it.

Ya IV tried a bunch of different combinations in the clutch set up. I'm in pa I do the same type of riding you do. Check out JBS there great people.. 18 gram primary greaseless weights I've used the orange secondary spring it's good if you're running a lot of mud and keep the RPM up but I don't like that for Woods riding so I use the stock secondary spring it keeps the rpm lower uses less fuel but make sure you get the slug kit for your wet clutch that's the first thing I did when I bought the machine yours might be burned up they're like 200 bucks when you go to take that off it's a left hand thread on the wet clutch drum make sure you get a new nut every time you take that off it's a stake down nut

I was wondering the same thing about the tires. Those stock Maxis Big Horn 2.0's are OK for a break-in period but a larger rim (14") and bigger (26"+) beefier, knobbier tires are a must on the Viking. The 686 CI has got a boatload of torque...it's just needs a firm grip, more clearance and you're damn near unstoppable :)

Topgunviking Hard To Kill ive never had the eps light come on. honestly in the 2 and a half years ive had it i really havent had any issues.

Thanks! I wished I had a little more time to ride...

Don't we all!

Terry Williams 2" lift with 26" ITP mud lites. I think i may bump up to 28" when these tires wear out.

Brandon Corwin oh nice it looks like a nice ride I've been trying to decide between the viking and the wolverine I think your videos just helped me make up my mind

Terry I love my Viking, I like the wolverine, but I love the Viking. I dont think I could do without the dumpbed! I put that thing through its paces. I will get some more videos up soon.

Brandon Corwin think you could do like a walk around just show the inside and how much space it has I can't find to many good videos of walk around on the viking

Terry I think I can do that. Im 6'4" tall, so i can tell you its more than roomy. The bed can hold WAAAAAAY more than Yamaha claims lol. I will see what I can do Tuesday when I have a day off...

jj bepp there are definitely times I wished it had a little more power but for the most part it does exactly what I need of it. As for stability you have to try really hard to roll it. I rolled it the other day for the first time and I mean I was leaning hard before it went over. Hopefully I will get to post some new videos soon...its been a busy summer so I havent had it out much this year.

Thanks for the info Brandon, and keep the vids coming.

sure is!

Where is this place

+jose Cordova mines and meadows in beaver falls Pennsylvania, about an hour north of Pittsburgh. pretty cool place.

+Brandon Corwin this turbo on yamaha viking

yes...I don't know how the other half does it.

+jj Bepp Sure was!

+jj Bepp 26" ITP mud lites now, the stockers sucked! Im toying around with a lift too, as if I had just a hair more ground clearance I could go anywhere!

+jj Bepp Thanks for the nice comments! I forgot the gopro sunday when we were riding, the ole girl was beastly! I promise you wont be disappointed if you get one, it does everything I ask of it and more!

+Brandon Corwin thanks, that's what I like to hear. I'll be waiting for more vids.

+Boeing767Driver Those aren't gauges, they are speakers. :)

+Gary Smedley Thank you, its all clay and mud. Fun to play in, but it isn't so much fun cleaning up...

+Brandon Corwin What tires are you running ? Got the same blue viking minus the power steering. Good Videos

Jeremy I have 26" ITP Mud Lites. The big horns clog up with mud too easy. Since changing the tires I can go all sorts of places that used to hang me up.

Eric D The radio is an SSV works. I actually just took it out and sold it as the reception was terrible, and the sound quality was ehhhhhhh. I actually just mounted a Kenwood marine head unit, with marine speakers which is 10 times better and less money invested! I also have a marine amp that I may throw in there too for the fun of it. Just a little worried about too much draw on the battery.

Cool! Thanks for the input. I saw in the accessory catalog that they offer a "second battery kit". I won't go that far, but some tunes would be nice. Out here in ID FM coverage is spotty at best, I will have to go with a satellite set up if anything.

Jake it will rub on both sides of the dump bed. Double check before you head over there, they are grooming trails through May. Bad winter toe the place up pretty bad.

Im 6'5" and I'm very comfortable in the viking, the teryx is just as roomy. You can't go wrong either way.

appreciate that. Buddy has a rhino and its just like a little tight for the liking. Honestly like the both viking and teryx so now the choice begins. thanks again!

Ryan Both are more than capable, I own the Viking, and my cousin owns the Teryx in these videos. The Viking has the ground clearance, and the Teryx has a little more power, but all in all very very good machines! The downside to both is they are a little wide, compared to some of the other offerings. That said this was the only solid instance of being truly stuck in our riding this summer!
