that pretty much covers it.Hunting, yard work, fun & play
i wont be surprised if the board patrol buys a bunch for our boarders.
keeping it at home and towing it out? or will the viking stay out in the field?
I'll be keeping the viking at my dads farm so i don't have to worry about towing it back and forth from the town.

It stays at home with me, then put it in the Trailer to go huniing and then put it back in the trailer and come home. I live in the wookds so i have places to ride, have a hunting club at the end of the street i can get on and ride aswell.
has anyone taken mudding yet or done any serious trail riding? also has the width of it been an issue?
Vikingss212 has, he said he got the Viking stuck 2-3 times
i went in some mud aswell, it did pretty well, but i didtn go to far off in it, since i dont have a winch installed yet.
must be nice living out in the woods! how big is the property you have their?It stays at home with me, then put it in the Trailer to go huniing and then put it back in the trailer and come home.

pictures of it with the viking would be sweet
we have 6 acres of woods, ive got a trail that goes around it. Its nothing Beautiful or anything, Just flat land with a bunch of pine trees, no hills, mountains , etc. Buts regardless, i can just in the Viking anytime and ride down the roads, nobody cares, cause just about everybody in the neighborhood has atvs. Im not on the Hunting club currently, but i plan on getting back on next year, and the gate is at the end of my road, and you can ride for miles and miles. I'll try to get some pics up.must be nice living out in the woods! how big is the property you have their?

I did some pretty serious trail ridin this weekend. Was in some pretty deep mud. Climbed some nice steep hills out of the creek. The viking did great. Everyone was impressed with how well it did. You can tell when you get in the thick mud. When you stop abd get back on the gas the big tires show themselves. Clutch work will help with that though. Ive had it clear over on the drivers door and if it has traction it goes with the mud lites. The one hill out of the creek the four wheelers couldnt climb. I hogged it out quite a bit lol. Over all the viking I really like it.

Its hard to hold a conversation on a trip in the Viking, its pretty loud in the cab, its like WHAT...HUH....WHO??? lol. It didnt seem to be that loud in the cab of my Ranger.
hahaha I had to deal with that a few times, yelling the whole time just so people could try to make out what you're saying, losing your voice in the process.Its hard to hold a conversation on a trip in the Viking, its pretty loud in the cab, its like WHAT...HUH....WHO??? lol.

Yep, thats sounds about right. My dad was like, we need to get one of those stealth Exhaust things they advertise on the Hunting tv shows.hahaha I had to deal with that a few times, yelling the whole time just so people could try to make out what you're saying, losing your voice in the process.
Isn't there something you can rig up to muffle the sound from the exhaust yourself or is aftermarket the only way?
you can make your own silencer. or weld on a larger muffler or add some resonators.
i think kolpin and Dasa racing makes them, probably some other brands. seeing that the Viking is a three seater i bet there will be a good number of people getting themYep, thats sounds about right.

Ive seen videos online, but never heard one in person, so i dont know if they make a big diffrence or not really.
