Hey kc awesome ride man that first hill was something else up and more up 😳 lol Got to love getting that bike running after flood twice no less , cant beat it when all bike ride home no tow . Watching all you guys south riding killing me ha ha at least 4 more weeks here before melts enough ride 😒 . Thanks for sharing great way to chill relax 👍

[@kcatv9556]

Hey Norm, yes, indeed have an all the machines make it back. Running is a good thing! LOL. Thanks for watching and dropping a comment my friend hopefully the snow amount and you can get out soon!

[@yamafanatic8720]

I always have a tube of di-electic grease with me , I always put some on my spark plug boot/ spark plug, works great , if you don't ride the wave right in deep water you'll start sputtering if you don't have any di-electric grease. great investment/ good practice IMO , Great Video but the way ! Safe travels

[@kcatv9556]

Yup totally agree. I have di-electric grease on both of our machines, spark plug wire boots, and we’ve never had an issue. He had never had those machines in deep water like that before. He didn’t know to put the grease on the boots. Thanks for checking out the video much appreciated!

This wouldn’t be a KC video without rocks , and at one water crossing lol . Awesome that you got your first 2023 ride in ! As always it was awesome to watch .

[@kcatv9556]

Hey buddy, You’re right about that! That is some rocky terrain we ride in and oh yes, we always gotta find a few creek crossings. 😄😄 Yeah, I think it warms up a little quicker in our neck of the woods eh. Thanks for watching and appreciate the comment.

Love your videos.. never been at Ozark and will be my first time visiting end of this October and staying at Mills Creek outfitters. We should meet 😊 up so you can show me some good trails.

Awesome video as always. Only thing better than a good trail ride is a good bush whacking trail ride where ya blaze old trails that haven’t been used in a long time

Fun day of riding! Loved all the creek crossings. Watching Cross's machine go over that big rock it is interesting to see how much tires make a difference.

Felt bad for the young fellow on the king quad. It was a fun ride despite the engine problems. Thanks for sharing ! Have a blessed day !

Good ride guys, that’s a bummer to have quad problems, good thing he wasn’t by himself!

[@kcatv9556]

Hey Steve, you’re sure right about that. If you’re out, riding alone and have quad problems, could be a long walk back. Thanks for checking out the video, my friend!

[@brianbloch3100]

Love the videos KC! I just keep wondering...where are the Hondas? Foremans and Ranchers are everywhere out here in Oregon. Keep the adventures coming. Appreciate you guys!

[@kcatv9556]

Hey Brian, that’s a good question, I don’t believe the Hondas are very popular for trail riding in Arkansas and surrounding areas. A lot of farmers and ranchers have them but just don’t see them on the trails very often. Glad you like the videos. Really appreciate you checking them out!

[@quaddingsous]

YEAH BUDDY! A KC vid with my morning coffee. A great way to start my day! - - - HAHAHAHA - Loved, loved, loved the lunch special buddy! You're awesome! Thanx for doing that for me! I love knowing what people are eating for lunch - lol. Just to keep things straight, I buy the Kirkland (Costco brand) Steak Strips. I've never even tried the Jack Links brand. Oh, and one last thing about the lunch segment . . . I LOVE that sweat shirt your wearing😉 - YEEEHAW! - - - 15:31 - HAHAHA, you crack me up Ms.K, "That was cute?" - LOL! - - - 23:50 - Ohhhh man, worst spot to die out! Did you figure anything else out about why it was dying? Suzuki's are excellent machines. I'm really surprised he was having trouble with it. - - - 24:13 - ?????WHAT???? NO winch? That's like buying a quad without tires - lol - - - Those Creeks were sure runnin' hard! I guess that's the hazards of riding in the spring, but on the plus side . . . NO DUST or BUGS - lol! Thanx for sharin' your adventure with us KC! AWESOME video my friend!

[@kcatv9556]

Hey mornin buddy, what I bought the wrong steak strips! LOL when I was shopping for those I was sure I got the right ones? Oh well, I guess we’ll have to do that all over again eh LOL Yes, I know you like the lunch segments but nobody doesn’t quite like you. Haha The dying issue was just a bad plug wire insulation where it went on the spark plug. Yeah, for sure riding in the spring time after rains those creeks are sure flowing! Fun though! Thanks for checking out the video buddy, and appreciate the comment!

[@ManzanoManATVAdventures]

Awesome video KC. No doubt Q is the lunch king with all though delicious snacks and food they eat. Nice water crossings through the Ozark mountains.

[@kcatv9556]

Hey Ruben, yeah buddy nobody does the lunch segments quite like Q eh haha! Oh yeah, with all the rain that they had in the area made the water crossings interesting. Thanks for checking out the video and appreciate the comment my friend.

[@quaddingsous]

Well, if I'm the lunch king, then Ruben & Maritimer must be the "Camp Chef Kings". Man, some of the dishes I've seen those two guys make while out on their overnighters are enough to keep me drooling for days! Mmmmmm, foooood! lol

[@ColoradoDualSport]

Well there you have it, the debate is finally over! The Grizzly beats the King Quad. Done!

[@kcatv9556]

Haha Well, I guess so. Especially if you have old, rotten, spark, plug wire .. Thanks for checking out the video buddy!

[@kractass]

"we're not the Q crew". Haha! No you guys are a little more sane than the Q crew😁. (Sorry Q, you know it's true) What a great place to ride. It reminds me of a place I used to go years ago. I've got to say I've never seen a Suzuki just die like that in the water! That's what Arctic Cat is known for. That's for posting!

[@kcatv9556]

Hey Kract ass, Yeah, that’s an amazing area to ride has a little bit of everything creeks steep hills, The issue with the Suzuki was the spark plug wire, kept getting wet and short out, it would just die. I think the boot had deteriorated on the plug wire. Thanks for checking out the vid and appreciate the comment!

[@quaddingsous]

I don't know if I can agree with you on the level of insanity kract ass. Considering all the vertical trails laced with huge rocks & ruts the KC Crew climb and the "really fast & deep" creeks I've seen them cross . . . I'm not so sure they're "a little more sane" than the Q-Crew. I'd have to say they're equally as INSANE - HAHAHAHA!!!

[@ranger6x660]

Nice ride! Did the Suzuki get some grease to put in the plug wire?

[@kcatv9556]

Hi Ranger 6x6, I don’t really know his son didn’t ride with us the next day. He said he was going to replace the plug wire with a new one, then of course pack it with Grace. Thanks for checking out the video much appreciate it!

[@bigjay6743]

The jellyfish stuff you see it's sap off the trees.

[@kcatv9556]

Hey Big Jay, sap off the trees? Oh, OK? It was kind of weird looking and we would see it in different places. Thanks for the info and appreciate you checking out the video!

[@spyder000069]

Great ride! Did you do any extra waterproofing on your bikes like grease the electrical connections or were they ok from the factory? Also after rides with water crossings do you ever pull your drain plug on the cvt?

[@kcatv9556]

Yes, indeed we had a good time riding that day. Hard to beat the trails in that area. The only extra waterproofing I have done is put dielectric grease on the spark plug wire. All-other wire connections have pretty good seals on them so didn’t do anything extra there. Nope never pulled the drain plug on the CVT belt unless I get water in it. Thanks for checking out the video and appreciate you commenting!

[@timalmich1964]

That looked like a pretty nice ride. So with all the water that you go through how do you keep your belt from getting wet?

[@kcatv9556]

Hi Tim, the belt intakes are up high out of the water. The Polaris belt will get wet if he goes slow in the water since the belt intake is below the seat I believe? Mark has had that issue before with the Sportman 850 but as long as he’s rolling through the water doesn’t seem to get wet. Yes, indeed, was a fun ride! Thanks for checking out the video and appreciate the comment!
