Oh yea, that would be a good idea, since ive never been in the rocks before........

That's just one big Rock lol try an actual rocky area or an area with fallen trees and monster roots then tell me how well your trailing arms do their lol my buddy bought the 1000 and it was a joke for my our area, sold it after 3 months to get a quad.

 

[Mech Rider]

why are trailing arms bad on the trail?

They get hung up really easy when going over big rocks, fallen trees, tree stumps, going up River banks ect... Not something you want when driving in deep woods

 

[LARRY01Z28]

oh ok I see what you mean.but the wildcats I have rode with went really good in the woods.

 

[Mech Rider]

I'm sure they do well in a lot of areas just not so much in my area and that's why I'm glad they came out with the sport and it's going to be a good seller here

 

[TN6680]

I like the Sport also.

 

[Mech Rider]

Can't wait till my dealer here gets them in! I can drive straight from them to my back yard through the woods

 

[TN6680]

I'm thinking hard about it. I can move all my upgrades to it. Cage, power steering, full doors, bumper, and etc you get point.

 

[Mech Rider]

Yeah I almost bought the trail but I decided to wait and now I'm glad I did

 

[mgrotel]

Sold the cat for a quad huh? Sounds like you suck at driving.

 

[mgrotel]

I have large rocks and tree roots too, up in the mountains, no issue here

Yeah, you don't know what you are talking about. That is for sure.

If you start this video at the 4:15 mark . . . . luckily there were no rocks/roots/trees/etc except for those millions of ones over a foot to two feet in diameter that kept lifting the entire chassis off the ground from underneath while climbing up this steep hill ...

All I do is woods ride. Rollin through very rocky area here. I also go over logs a lot. Went through an area where I cut up a tree but had not cleared it. Sorry to be off the main topic.

 

[Patrick]

Anyone that wants to experience what a wildcat will do in the woods is welcome to come to my property in KY and I will show them, just have to sign a waiver

 

[JustDoIt]

Even for the tails around here that includes everything but sand and larger boulders the Sport would work better. the 1000 is a big boy to be getting around trees and the smaller trails. It all in what you need. Don't love it leave it son!

Hmmm! I drive my Wildcat X in tight woods all the time. Rarely do I need to make a 3 point turn. I climb rocky hills and roll over many dead falls so i do not understand why these guys are saying the fullk size Wildcat is not good! Must not know how to drive!

I believe somewhere along the line the newer Wildcat's received the steering knuckles from the Wildcat 4 that allow more steering angle. I know for sure the 2012, 2013, and maybe even 13.5 standard Wildcats didn't have the improved knuckles.

 

[Mech Rider]

Lol my friend had the newest one and it didn't do good at all, I've seen it first hand so I know what I saw. Patrick I'm sorry but you got some very tiny trees there. Type In Google "Vancouver Island trees" and you will see what we got to deal with... We got roots the are twice the size of your biggest treeLike I said before I'm sure it does good in a lot of places just not so much in my area

 

[Mech Rider]

I can't get your videos to work but I'm sure they do good in your area

 

[JustDoIt]

ya my 13 a school bus can out turn lol but that's doesn't bug me to much i tend to stick with the open trails, but would love to hit the trails i used to ride on with my dirt bikes and sorry but the 1000 is to big believe me i tried lol if i could i would have both

Mech Rider. This is typical of what we ride as well as big rock. The cat eats it up, what we see is the path the driver takes is what is important. If you are clueless and just hit things head on of course things can break, if you learn some skills maybe you won't have the problems you've encountered. Slowing down and walking the machine up takes you places you never dreamed were accessible. Good luck with your quad.
