When it comes to riding an ATV in the snow, there are a few key features you should look for to ensure that the ATV can handle the unique challenges of this environment. Here are some of the best ATVs for snow riding:

Can-Am Outlander X mr: The Can-Am Outlander X mr is a high-performance ATV that is specifically designed for mud and snow riding. It comes equipped with a powerful engine, aggressive mud and snow tires, and a radiator relocated to the front to avoid snow and ice buildup.

Yamaha Grizzly EPS SE: The Yamaha Grizzly EPS SE is a popular choice for snow riding due to its high-performance engine, four-wheel drive system, and excellent handling in difficult terrain. It also features heated grips and thumb warmers, making it more comfortable to ride in cold conditions.

Polaris Sportsman XP 1000: The Polaris Sportsman XP 1000 is a powerful ATV that is well-suited for snow riding. It comes with a high-performance engine, a four-wheel drive system, and advanced suspension that provides excellent handling and stability in difficult terrain.

Arctic Cat Alterra TRV 700: The Arctic Cat Alterra TRV 700 is a versatile ATV that is ideal for snow riding due to its four-wheel drive system, high ground clearance, and advanced suspension. It also features a heated passenger seat, making it a good choice for two-up riding in cold conditions.

Overall, the best ATV for snow riding is one that is equipped with a powerful engine, four-wheel drive system, advanced suspension, and specialized tires that can handle snow and ice. The models mentioned above are all excellent choices for snow riding, but it's important to choose an ATV that suits your specific needs and preferences.

That's my 2 cents on ATV snow riding, there's other good models out there though.

Ducati Versus Kawasaki in 2023 you say?

It is difficult to say which brand makes a better bike between Ducati and Kawasaki because it ultimately depends on personal preference and the intended use of the motorcycle.

Ducati is known for its high-performance motorcycles with advanced engineering and design. The brand has a long history in racing and is known for its sporty and powerful motorcycles. Ducati bikes are typically more expensive than Kawasaki bikes and are designed for riders who want a high-performance machine that can handle challenging conditions and provide a thrilling riding experience.

Kawasaki, on the other hand, is known for its wide range of motorcycles that cater to different riding styles and purposes. The brand produces everything from sportbikes to cruisers to off-road bikes, and is known for its affordability and reliability. Kawasaki bikes are typically more affordable than Ducati bikes and are designed for riders who want a reliable and practical machine that can handle daily commuting or weekend rides.

Both brands have their strengths and weaknesses, and the choice between them ultimately comes down to personal preference and the intended use of the motorcycle. If you are looking for a high-performance machine that can handle the track or spirited riding, a Ducati might be the better choice. If you are looking for a reliable and practical machine that can handle commuting or weekend rides, a Kawasaki might be a better choice.

I like 999 Ducati's. Ducati 999 page

Eton seemed like it was gaining in popularity at least for a little while before fading into ATV history. I've actually seen a couple out in the wilderness being exercised.

Quote from: animal on August 10, 2022, 05:20:36 AMI also see good deals on eBay for vintage dirt bike magazines since you can cherry pick which issue you want. Cherry pick magazines and even though they may cost more you will only get the articles and photos you want.

I agree to just look on Ebay, there are old dirt bike magazines going back to the 70's at reasonable prices. These magazines have some long-outdated reading material that ends up being really interesting when you see how primitive the technology was. This site here has a page of dirt bike magazines but nothing vintage.

The ATC350X is a legend in the ATC world...

The ATC350X had a liquid-cooled, four-stroke engine with a displacement of 350cc, making it one of the most powerful ATVs of its time. It also featured a robust suspension system and sturdy frame, allowing it to handle jumps, bumps, and other obstacles on the trail.

They've been gone for too long...
