The bit that I rode throw, I have done it with and without the 4x4. I flick the 4x4 on if I think I am going to get stuck and the cvt kicks in when needed. Smile

Thanks for that Anglegirl Very Happy That's why I decided to get into 4wd quads as well, to elimenate the getting bogged situation. So the more infomation I can gather the better off I'll be on the trails.
