Yamaha ATV Grizzly 700 Testing The Tracks On Rock Snow Sand and Mud - May 5, 2013

[@2011gmh]

I love the vid and I love the fact a husband and a wife share and be with each other doin somthing so fun and nice. Thank you for showing that you dont have to trash everything to have a good time.

[@jackrabbit4437]

dude you have the best atv videos on youtube like no joke

[@cubbeezx]

Thanks! Glad you liked it. The steering is much, much harder with the tracks and that is with power steering even. Especially if you try turning sharp while going slow.

[@WoodsWithT]

I remember watching this video when it came out, I ended up talking my uncle into getting a grizzly, now my step father and I all own grizzlies because of your videos from almost 10 years ago

[@cubbeezx]

Thanks for being a loyal viewer!

[@cubbeezx]

Thanks for watching and commenting..greetings from Canada..glad to have you on board!

[@abcarp1302]

Nice to see other people that like to ride and go somewhere instead of going to find a big mud hole and trash all the trails. Great job!

[@GunnyE9]

I think I see tracks in Canadian Kodiak's future !! Early spring is another great time for tracks, as you have found out !! WOO HOO !! This looks like a great trail and the right time to be on it. Funny how the tracks make it look so easy !! HAHAHAHA !! That was funny how CK got ya back by splash'in water on ya after you beat her in the race ... HAHAHAHA !! ...and the sand hill ... Yup, I see tracks in CK's future for sure !! WOO HOO !! THANKS for shar'in the ride dude !!

[@kelbywatson509]

You have such an amazing place to ride and two amazing machines !

[@cubbeezx]

Thanks, yes we are very lucky to live and ride where we do! Love our Yamaha's too!

OK, you guys win the snow contest - lol. Ours is finally gone, I think. I haven't been in any bush yet. As u were ridin', I was wondering how the tracks felt in the "non-snow" terrain . . . and then u told me. Then I was thinkin' they seem much more stable than tires . . . and you told me. Then I was wondering about the traction . . .and u showed me when u backed up the hill - lol. Awesome editing as usual Cubster! Awesome vid! Thanx for sharin'!

[@cubbeezx]

Thanks for watching and commenting! We have a great time out exploring the wilderness together.

[@ATVknightrider]

My friend and I go ATVing here in Canada when the weather let us LOL. We like to see what other people are doing and share videos with them. Thank for posting you video friend! Have nice day! Cheers from cold Canada

[@cubbeezx]

Thanks for watching and commenting. We too are in Canada and yes it has been cold and so much snow!!!

[@ATVknightrider]

We really like the video work you done over the years you and your wife!! Have awesome day friend!!

[@cubbeezx]

Glad you enjoyed the vid and thanks for watching!

[@cubbeezx]

Any ATV is a good ATV! There are so many things to consider, it's a hard question to answer. How much money, what terrain you ride, used or new..you get the idea.

[@canesser1]

Grizzly on tracks . . . whose yo daddy? Lol. Had some good times on mine this winter. That's what I love about the Tatou 4Ss, perfect for the "tween" seasons. What kind of chain saw drill press do you have mounted to the front rack Cubbee?

[@SanJuanMountainBob]

You crack me up - "it's wet water"....."you don't need to see". haha. Looks like those tracks work pretty good in that muskeg stuff! Good video!

[@ruyguy8888]

The GoPro 3's are not set up very "out-of-the-box" friendly. They record mostly in a "flat image" which allows full range of post production color and contrast rendering. Programs such as what Cubbeezx use "Final Cut Pro X" or Pinnacle Studios, Sony Vegas / Studios, After Effects all have very powerful rendering and vectoring processors built into the subprograms which allows full range of editing. I'm not sure "Cubbeezx you can correct me on this", but Final Cut is a MAC specific program.

[@Simbostyle]

Hi, those tracks do look smart. Makes the griz a real go anywhere machine. Great vid, can't wait for the next.

[@Caper1960]

Picking up a new 2019 Polaris 850 with Camso T4S tracks this week, it was great to see the performance of the tracks and especially the drag race. I was unsure how the tracks would effect the speed, but it seemed very respectable compared to the Grizzly.

[@cubbeezx]

Congratulations on your new ride. You're going to love the tracks..so much fun in the winter!

[@mrlariata9290]

Cool video..It appears those woods are haunted. Little after 5:20 on the right hand side you will see a face in the ground. Lol

[@cubbeezx]

Will have to check that out! Never noticed before but going to watch it again. Thanks for sharing.

[@michaelrepka5476]

oh okay. nice. I see some red light or button on your plastic cover between the handle bars. would that happen to be a bypass for the reverse limiter? and what mods do you have on your green beast?

[@wunfeather4787]

Great video. It is nice to show a real life comparison between where the tracks will take you VS the tires. I have a couple of traplines in Alberta and wish to try a set of tracks on my side by side instead of buying a snow mobile that will sit in the yard for 8 months of the year. I wonder how they would be in a meter of snow or on the floating bogs?

[@majorav8er]

I enjoyed that thank you. Do the tracks tend to pull the steering away more than tires?

[@MrArcticCat400]

yeah cubbeezx I have to agree you do have the best atv videos on youtube

[@cubbeezx]

That's a good amount to spend. If you are buying used I recommend trying to find one that has been well maintained....4x4 is nice if you might be riding in some mud/swamp.

[@austinmahoney8254]

I cant believe that even with tracks the grizzly still beat the Kodiak. Nice ride. After watching so many of your videos, I am thinking of getting me a Go-Pro and making vids of me riding my dirt bike. They wont be as good as yours, but I might give it a try.

[@roki130pl]

Hi there ! I read a reviews in my country of those tracks for ATV, and they written that it is badly to use it in mud and sand, because it causes attrition of this delicate mechanisms inside it.

[@TheSnopro23]

Another great video! what size are the tires on kodiak? are they zillas?

[@cubbeezx]

Thanks for watching and commenting! For us it's all about the exploring and enjoying the outdoors....we sometimes find mud, but don't often go looking for it, LOL

Hey there, I am having a hard time setting up my Go Pro 3. Videos are coming out kind of hazy, and when loaded to you tube look like very poor resolution. I am at 1080p 60 fps. Can you do me a favor and let me know what you have yours set at. all the settings. I just want to set it and forget it. And your image looks very nice. I would really appreciate that. Cheers Ernest. Maybe a short vid on what you are doing with your Go Pro?

[@cubbeezx]

We are down the road in North Western Ontario.

[@johnnyk6628]

You any where near Terrace Bay ?

[@Mattbr02]

Hey ya Cubbee awesome video but I just noticed at the end of this video whatever happen to CK funny yellow slow sign in the back of the truck.

[@Mattbr02]

Hey ya Cubbee awesome video but I just noticed at the end of this video whatever happen to CK funny yellow slow sign in the back of the truck.Oh yeah now that the snow is gone you ought to get out the old honda 350 dirt bike and drag race it with the grizzly I think that would be awesome to see.

[@sromrell]

It always cracks me up when CK tries to rock the Kodiak from side to side. She moves but the Kodiak doesn’t. Cubbee, never ever say your wife is waddling through anything. Just free advice from someone who has made that mistake.

[@tiborkeresztes1767]

Your videos amazin me every time. Coll ride again. The gryzz didn't make a problem of towing as we could see. It must bee fun to prtened to bee a tank. The snow should realy go now we had enough. Thanks for the vid

[@MegaXtreeme]

Than you :) Yeah I have rided 80 km on the blue 550 and im loving it. It has power ! But the green 400 is for sale, so it is sitting in the garage ^^

[@rjmlakota]

Cubbeezx, Another great video! I've done a lot riding up in northern Canada on ATV and Snowmobile. Wish we had that type of riding her in NYS. Glad I'm only about 20 minutes from the border! Keep the great video coming! Maybe we can meet up someday for a ride...

[@cubbeezx]

Hi there, glad you enjoy the vids and thanks for watching. We are in Ontario but the other end to NYS...up by the Manitoba border. Lots of great areas to ride though!

[@microbe2008]

Lol. Yes Agree all the way. I also ride with one of my friends. I have a Grizzly 660 and he has a Kodiak. Pretty cool to see the same ATVs riding like us. hehe I love your relaxed and positive tone of voice in the video. way to go :)

[@cubbeezx]

Great quads aren't they! We love our Yammies. Thanks again for watching.

[@ruyguy8888]

wow its weird to still see ice out on the trails haha. Geeze, me and a few buddies where up to our racks in mud this past weekend. I bet it would be fun to hit some off cambered trails on those tracks. with all the added stability. Great vid as always cubbeezx.

did u enjoy pulling CK? awesome video!

[@fupa74]

What state/country are you riding in..Nice counrty!!!

[@kylefitzgerald4419]

Great video cubbeezx looks like the Kodiak still running good after a long winter. I should tell you me and my friend we were riding in some deep water and he had like the tracks like you have and in the water there was a survey stick and when we just got out of the water he pined it and his track came off lol and that was funny. But he got it replaced today and got some ss 212 rims chrome 12 inch and mega mayhem tires awesome. :):)

We have no complaints, ours have been great atv's!

Special Edition...it has different wheels and the "blue" colour. Thanks for watching!

Anytime! I knew it meant special edition, just not exactly what it meant on this ATV. And thank you for posting the videos, I enjoy them very much!

Thanks Chris! Check out our How To Vid How To - GoPro Helmet Chin Mount - How We Did Ours

[@zanebarnett2208]

How much would a beast like that coast to put together tracks and all

[@LB7Mikey]

I seen tracks that also work good in mud, sand, water, over rocks, and even snow they seem very durable. The only bad thing about them is it slows the bike down (I think).

[@bradlywheeler1171]

When are u going to make another video with it?

[@bullet641]

So those tracks run just fine in sand? or is hard on them?

[@cubbeezx]

We only ever used them on this ride in dirt/mud conditions. Only ever use them in the snow as one can go much faster with wheels on. They are all season, but don't have any experience with them on sand. Maybe other viewers have and will comment. Thanks for stopping by!

[@AJStatham713]

Looks like the tracks are going to some good use! I'm jealous!

[@WNzv7417]

Nice video! Why did you choose Yamaha instead of Polaris or Canam? We have same nature in Russia and i would by two same ATVs for me and my wife. CF is too hard for forest and for mud. So, I am choosing …..

[@cubbeezx]

Thanks! Greetings from Canada. After reading up lots Yamaha's had everything we were looking for (EPS/diff lock) and had great reliability and were rated an all around great quad. Canam's were too pricey and never owned a Polaris before.

[@ivanmarkussen3069]

What tracks brand do you use on your grizzly? Is it 700 cc engine ?

[@cubbeezx]

We originally had Tatou's but for the last 5 years have run the KIMPEX WS4 Commander tracks and have been very happy with them. Yes the Grizzly has a 700cc engine

you should post a vid of all the challenging places !! would be cool. im a new subscriber so idk if you already have one posted!

[@kansascityshuffle8526]

Have you had any experience with rock twigs or any other debris getting in the bogeys. What are the consequences?

[@cubbeezx]

We have done very little track riding that wasn't on snow. No issues though when we did go for a couple of rides.

[@kansascityshuffle8526]

Ok fair enough. Then does ice buildup in the bogeys affect it. I want to upgrade my yammy but getting a lot of ‘fair warnings ‘ about bogeys getting easily wrecked by twigs stones and bigger chunks of ice. And getting counter advice from the dealers who want to sell their tracks to me that never happens. Just looking for a consumer’s opinion. Thx.

[@cubbeezx]

We do try and clear out as much snow / ice as we can after a ride in the winter as they are just loaded. The heat from the exhaust turns the snow to ice and can make it challenging to get all of it. Even with some snow/ice staying in the suspension and the bogeys on the tracks we can honestly say we've never had any issues...nothing has broken and everything keeps working. The tracks turn the ATV's into little tanks and they can go through such deep snow. When you are stuck though....you are stuck! Here is a video if you are interested that we made showing us tracking through some REALLY deep snow! Really shows what they are capable of! kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHivmaqDg7h1edE

is the ride quality affected with the tracks ?

[@newfoundlandhunter5554]

Great videos,Thanks for sharing! So now that you have tracks instead of tires would you mind telling me if there are any disadvantages with tracks vs tires? They seem like fun, & im thinking about getting a set when i get a new quad this summer, cheers!

[@cubbeezx]

Thanks for watching and commenting! We've really only used our tracks in the winter...they are great for the really deep snow and going fairly slow around the bush/trails etc. You go a lot slower and use more gas...harder to steer and not near as maneuverable with the tracks but go ANYWHERE...turns my Grizzly into a tank LOL. For road running, tight trails and summer riding tires win out for sure. Hope that helps.

[@justme-ok3vy]

Love your videos..thanx for the entertainment ..i was wondering..can you drive in 2 whl drv with the tracks on ..like on a packed trail..or is it hard on the atv?

[@cubbeezx]

Thanks for watching and glad you are enjoying the videos. Yes, you can drive in 2 wheel drive with the tracks on...on a packed trail it is probably all you would need. It's when you get into the deep stuff that you need the 4x4. Shouldn't be hard on it at all.

[@microbe2008]

Great Video. Thanks a lot. Now can't wait for summer to come around here in New Brunswick :)

[@jsmcguireIII]

"Still dragn' the Kodiak!" LOL My Kodiak is definitely not that clean and is all stitched up with zipties..but it never fails me (since I got a battery maintainer.) I would think youd get all kinds of brush and branches and debris jamming up the tracks. Would not want to have to try and fix that out in the middle of nowhere.

How are those tracks in the muskeg?

[@cubbeezx]

Stephen Luciak To be honest, we've only ever used them once in the spring...always used them in snow. They would work good in muskeg I would think, but if you got stuck I bet the suction would make it very difficult to get it out!
