Camso X4S ATV track system in the deep snow with a Honda Rubicon 520

[@CarQuestion]

This is the kind of fluffy snow that is really deep and will get you stuck even with a snowmobile if you are not careful! Even if the Honda Rubicon is not the most powerful ATV, it can handle the deep stuff and a lot of work we do with it here on the land!

Most extensive and well recorded video of a Honda on tracks. Really appreciate seeing the video.

[@panzermagier]

What a machine!! Definitely the Honda legacy lives on I love my rubicon!

[@TheKingkingg]

Awesome, thanks for sharing this awesome Honda and tracks system.

[@CarQuestion]

Glad you like

[@jasongilliland9508]

That's awesome. I love my Honda, have a matching one to yours. I think that Hondas are the best and best looking.

[@coryboyd7958]

That's incredible!!

[@CarQuestion]

But it can be done ;)

Living in a place that easily gets 4 or 5 feet of accumulated snow and temperatures up to -40 degrees, I get anxious just watching this guy drive up these steep slopes. Will he make it? Or will he get stuck? In snow that deep he won't be able to walk back home, so he'll freeze to death before help arrives! Good thing the camera man is there to help him... or keep him company as they both freeze to death before help arrives.

This is an odd comment, I'm pretty sure he is right next to his house, but even if he wasn't, all he would have to do is have snow shoes, water, a garmin inreach, and an emergency shelter/sleeping bag nearby. A snow machine can also get stuck out in snow that deep and the same applies. Its not about what equipment you are using, its about your emergency planning if that equipment fails and your backup equiptment.

Двигателю немножко тяжело но пойдет , Лайк

I guess it's the wide track surface area that prevents you from sinking. I suspect for most uses a snowmobile is a better solution, though.

[@CarQuestion]

With tracks flottability is better since there is more than a single track. For speed a snowmobile is better but also requires more Maintenance!

[@ragdump]

Snowmobiles are more of a toy and a Quad with tracks is more useful You live way back in the woods like me they are more useful

[@Mossman4u2]

To me it looks like not enough track footprint per weight load. Constantly digging too much and struggling to get up on top.

[@johnsteiner9542]

Would you do these tracks again? Or do you wish you had purchased a different brand? Do you feel these tracks suck too much power for the smaller single cylinder machines?? I’m on the fence of ordering a set of these for my Suzuki and would love an honest feedback. Thanks.

[@timking2194]

I think I will get the exact same setup for work. Is that a 520 dct with power steering. Any problems with it ? Thanks

[@CarQuestion]

there is a limit to everything. The power steering help, but i won't push it if it won't go. So problems with it: no, but it could be problematic on all machines since it's not a light setup and i can't imagine how heavy it can become when it's full of wet snow.

6:35 its a snow plow :)

[@janom2687]

How wide and long is the Honda with Camso tracks?

[@brettyurkiw8166]

What’s your top speed with the tracks on hard packed snow?

[@CarQuestion]

i'll try to check that out a weekend on GPS

@@CarQuestion ok thanks

[@vitalitimofejev6086]

Cool🤗👌✌️

[@CarQuestion]

glad you like! :)

[@channelnamehere4065]

How often is one expected to replace tracks? Do they wear similar to tires?

[@CarQuestion]

Since we use them mostly in slow, wear is really slow. There is more danger for tear!

[@channelnamehere4065]

@@CarQuestion thanks! Tempting but for half the price of the ATV itself, it becomes a value proposition! Lol like buying $40k tires for the $60k truck, you know what I mean? Lol

[@CarQuestion]

Having a sled and an atv doubles that amount ;) for me it’s the perfect machine to work with it all year long !

[@dennislesh2374]

That's $4800 per track for a total of almost $20,000 for the four..........correct?

[@CarQuestion]

Nope for all the kit installed

[@brandonhyson2563]

This video killed!! me, I wanted to kick him off the wheeler drive that thing like you stole it she can handle it. Hondas are built for a beating!!

[@livethecrazylife5779]

Man ur lugging the motor good way to kill a Honda there

[@CarQuestion]

Don't worry, it can take much more than that! There is no bad red rev in that video.

[@BBlackmen]

Well I'm a city person so I have a city person question what the difference between this machine and a snow mobile

[@CarQuestion]

Snowmobiles have ski's in front and a single rubber track. An ATV comes on wheels, and we use a Camso Track Kit to replace the wheel with 4 tracks! This is more for work than the speed with that configuration, but traction and stability are more impressive with an ATV equipped with a track system. It's also a great way to use it all year long instead of having 2 différent machines and have more maintenance! A snowmobile will be way faster in the deep snow of a flat surface. Both are fun to drive!

[@BBlackmen]

@@CarQuestion. Wow thanks for answering I've always wanted one actually wanted one of each

[@gordlockwood1213]

My buddy and I are planning on getting Kodiak 700 ES ATVs and having Camso X4S tracks. The difference is mostly not having to buy 4 machines between the two of us, one ATV and one snowmobile. The 700 can go all year. If you watch videos of people going up super steep and deep stuff above tree lines, they are running 1000 cc machines with huge tracks with long lugs (and carrying lots of extra gasoline). They can go where snowmobiles are going. That's not where we will go.
