For strictly mud? Honda Foreman. It has AMAZING low end power. Put some Outlaws on it and you will come out the other side.

Either an Arctic Cat H1 or a 500m. the h1 will spin any size tire out there in thick mud STOCK 500 will do it with a clutch kit, and a pipe.

Best water riding bike out there... a 2000 or older Honda 300.

Why you have to hate on the AC's? Jealous?

[JackL]

This is a great question that normally would have got all the attention!!

LMAO, it will be hard for the peanut gallery to pick apart my choice of best as a manual Suzuki Vinson with 26" gators for destroying the mud, but what do I know, i am just a guy who actually rides in the swamp sometimes.

[papahouse]

KingQuad 700 with 28" Outlaws and 3" lift is awesome

Best Bike for the Mud is the Bike you feel safest and most comfortable on.

I just don't like AC's.  I've rode quite a few, I don't like much about them.  From what I can see from your sig yours isn't stock by any means, but stock for stock I like the grizz/BF way better.  It was just a joke on the e-net...

I will admit that I have not yet rode one one outlaws, I rode one on stock tires, and one on swamp lites...they both just didn't do anything for me.  They are OK bikes, but not for me.

I have a grizzly on 27" XTR's BTW, and yes, your bike CAN outrun mine any day of the week I'm sure, just by looking at your sig.

BTW, I feelt he same about the outlander.  I rode 3 up at mudfest (all while I was deciding what big bore *I* wanted to buy) and I wasn't impressed at ALL by their visco lock.  I love the grizzly's diff lock...IMO, unbeatable.

Can agree with you on that, my 300 has lasted me 10 years so far and nothing major has happend.

Nice Honda!

[quadracer1992]

any bike that is too tall for mud to get on you is perfect.

[MudPuppy]

Well what about the Polaris Sportsman...No ones said anything about that...Bad choice???

Better known as Polunkis. In my opinion they have the best suspension on the market but they are a tank (meaning heavy).

[jrpro130]

I got the opportunity to ride an 08 Can-Am. 

Here's my opinion:

Way faster than all 3 bikes in my garage (BF/Grizz/YFZ450). 
I LOVE the braking system (on the driveshaft aka pinion brake)

I do not like the visco lock AT ALL.  It takes about 3 revolutions of the tire for it to engage. 


Basically that + price was a big factor in my decision to add the Grizzly to the garage.  The grizz has a 'fully locking' differential.  Thats a big plus for me and the riding I do.  I couldn't stomach spending almost 10g's.

It IS way faster, but I don't like some of the things about it.  I have a sport bike for speed and a 4x4 for mud.  I just don't need a 'faster' 4x4.  It will kill my YFZ though, some guy had one out at the place we usually ride.

I still have my ATC 200M with 26 ditch witch tires , might not goes as fast as most 4wd fourwheelers but when I got stuck I could pull it out myself.
Fun to ride .

[MudPuppy]

Out of these 4 bikes which is the best...which is the worst.
Put them in order please.

Kawasaki-Brute Force
Honda-Foreman
Polaris-Sportsman
Yamaha-Grizzly

Foreman wouldnt be too good in the mud really...straight rear Axle, if you want somthing for deep mud and ruts you have to have IRS

[Ida_Mann]

I say whatever the little quad was that Budman rode right around me when I sunk my 400ex ;-)

Wish I woulda had my SpiderTracks on it. That was fun goin thru the mud drag w/ no lights, ppl were like WTF is this guy doin, he must be lost, but I seen it in the day time when it was empty & thought no problem, I made it out though, thats all that matters, I wish Ida was there for that, he only seen me get stuck

I know he was laughing when I went in the shower w/ my helmet on.

1985 kawi 185 bayou  best mud bike ever  goes where 4 bys gets buried  real light

My friend had one, I think it was black, I had a '84 200S.
W/ some balloon tires it would float on mud.

I used to float my '84 Honda Atc 110 in the river.  And it sling some mud in low range!!

I disagree, however, mine has a gearless detroit locker on it. The only time I ever got stuck in the mud was one time my pipe was so clogged with mud that it wouldn't spin the tires, The other time was in about 4 ft of water (my snorkle is much taller than the one in the pic) and my spark plug got wet.. I think it's dialed in now and when it is dialed in I know for a fact that I will come out the other side of any mudhole that I pull into. Lock it in and give it a little throttle, as long as the tires are spinning it moves forward.

[300 quadrunner]

i gota 300 quadrunner 2wd and i love it, 400 bux i invested, i put 25in gators on the rear, and with spped ( wound out in third gear0 i make it through alot of hole ) but 4x4 would be niice. its light so easy to get unstuck, but them damn gator holes hurt out at holeylands and 8th and krome bent the handlebars 879243 times.

Grizzly( only if it is the 700 EFI Power assist)
Polaris(700-800)
Brute Force(08 only as it is now EFI, and 750 only) have fun with this if you get it as you will work on the belt set up alot if you have any decent mud tire
The honda

I would put an arctic cat over all those though if it was just out on the trail deep mudhole riding. Most GC stock, no need for a lift as it can Fit any size tire out there. True front locker. Great bumpers and a bunch of other stuff that I can't think of at the moment.

[backwoods boy]

1986 honda trx250x i had one w/o mud tires and it would still tear up the 4wds
other than that honda foreman or fourtraxx 300
