This time we are going to put up the toughest 2 wheel drive ATV battle!
We found almost all possible models of these machines to put them into a real offroad madness.
They will be drowned in dirt and swamp, cut their way through the toughest obstacles and
so on!
Its going to be interested stay tuned!
Hi guys as usually its me just a voice-over you are watching review machines and as you
already know we arrange the great 2x2 ATV battle!
First of all I should say it was quite a job to put all these bikes together.
Some of these machines and riders made a very long way to this place, so we are very grateful
to them.
A special thanks I want to say to our riders.
They are going to take part in the toughest battle where will be no mercy both for the
riders and bikes.
We’ve prepared quite hard trials today, so its going to be tough for them but very
interesting for us.
Well and now lets have a look at the machines taking part in our todays adventure.
Lets start with this a very interesting DIY 2 wheel drive bike.
It is called Storm.
It has quite unusual type of frame and the engine from a quad.
Also there is a variator and chain drive to the both wheels.
The Front fork is a very interesting with a long-stroke suspension.
Disk brakes, an electric starter, a snorkel and wait for it… a central system of tires
inflation!
I’ve never seen this stuff on bikes before!
This is the newest model of the season – full wheel drive bike Master Pro.
By the way today we will see the first public test of this machine.
The design is the simplest, cause they were eager to make it the most reliable.
You may choose an engine equipped here – it may be a Chinese Lifan 7 hp or Honda GX200
with the same power.
There is a chain drive to the both wheels, which are made of a conveyer belt.
The weight is about 100 kilos.
Ataman Max another full wheel drive motorcycle.
There is an 4 stroke engine 9,5 hp.
Also we see here a rear suspension system.
The weight is 110 kilos, carrying capacity is 200 kilos.
The transmission is a variator with a rear gear!
And another Ataman MAX but this time it’s a rear drive bike.
Because of the rear drive the design is much simpler, the price is less just as the weight.
And as opposed to the full wheel drive version there are both rear and frond suspension systems.
To top it all the maximum speed is much higher.
The newest modification of the popular motorcycle ATV Taurus.
First of all it is the lightest – it weighs only 90 kilos.
There is a full chain drive and the Chinese engine 7 hp.
Also there is a variator with two ranges – standard and low.
Carrying capacity is 150 kilos.
By the way it’s not the all machines you will see today in this video.
A motorized sled, a trike, some quads – all this stuff are going o take part in todays
battle.
We arranged to take here so many machine to find out the pros and cons depending on a
type of each vehicle.
Now few words about the agenda.
We have an exciting route full of different trials.
The first of them is a so to speak drag racing for a quarter of mile.
Then we will overcome steep slopes.
Then we’ll cut out way through tough dirt and swamps.
And finally the most exciting – the hardest ride through the heap of logs.
Well I think the introduction is over – lets have fun and put our plan into action!
As I promised we start from the drag racing!
All the competitors are standing in a line and waiting for the green light.
Three, two, one , go!
The rear drive Ataman goes faster of all, frankly speaking it is not a surprise.
The we see full wheel drive Ataman and Storm going on a level with each other.
Then Master Pro, and the last one Taurus.
Well without being sad we are moving to the next trial.
This time it’s a hill climbing.
Ataman 2x2 goes the first, then master pro, Taurus and ataman rear drive.
As you see this slope is not a problem for all, so lets make it harder and move to the
next more complicated hill.
Firstly the simple way – the same thing not a problem for all.
But on the more difficult way it started to be interesting.
Master Pro was trying to do his best, but at that moment he had a problem with the front
drive, in fact it worked only with rear drive.
The most surprising thing is that the only bike who dealt with this hill is a rear drive
Ataman.
I think its success here is a result of the high speed but nevertheless he is a winner
here.
Lets move on.
Now we are heading to the our favorite dirt and the first obstacle here is this huge puddle.
Full wheel drive ataman goes the first.
Not bad and now it goes back.
And this time it gets stuck, because there is a big stone under water that prevents bike
from moving.
Thanks to the bike it has a rear gear and finally it gets through this obstacle.
Now we see Taurus going through the same trial.
It is much lighter, so it is easier to overcome this puddle.
But look at the rider, I think the huge part of the success belongs to the riders legs
doesn’t it?
So the most successful formula here not 2x2 but 2x2x2 where the last two it is a riders
legs!
Rear drive Ataman goes through this section only in one direction.
And even this trike has many problems on this obstacle as you can see.
So does this motorized sled.
By the way this thing is a very interesting device to my mind it so much resembles a chariot.
Guys if you want us to make a review of this stuff please let us know in the comments.
Well the next trial.
It is this swampy little inlet.
The great opportunity to wash the bikes, lets go!
It is clear that this obstacle is definitely not for a rear drive.
It has no chances here in swampy ground.
Even trike with two rear wheels drive feels quite uncomfortable here.
Well lets see what the full wheel drive bikes will show us in this water.
Taurus’s engine stalled right in the water, so the engine is obviously is not water proof.
The Ataman generally overcomes this inlet quite well.
But the best result here was shown by the Master Pro with its big wheels!
And now we have a real swamp, I wonder if anyone can overcome this trial.
Let see.
And again Master Pro shows the best result in water.
The big wheels and full drive – a very useful features in this conditions.
Rear wheel drive Ataman goes also quite weel, but it is harder to him to move here.
2x2 Ataman predictably goes through this swamp more confidently.
The trike moved here without a serious problems but at the end it rested with a front wheel
against a bank, but nevertheless it got through finally.
And now we are going deeper.
Of course it is a very hard test for all the competitors, and while we are watching them
struggling in water I’d like to mention that it would be interesting to see how a
heavy 4x4 can manage here.
But I think it may be impossible at all to move here for a heavy vehicle.
Even the lightest bikes can barely move in this swamp.
And the light weight is one of the most important advantage of a motorbikes.
And the other not less important is certainly the price.
They are all quite affordable, all the prices are less than 2000 dollars.
But lets come back to the practice.
Generally I think all the vehicles look quite decent here and full wheel drive vehicles
predictably look better.
But the Taurus again had problems with the engine, it is really seems to be afraid of
water.
And now the toughest trial!
The heap of a logs, and you can take it from me it is really hard to overcome this obstacle.
Ataman 2x2 goes the first.
Well if our bikes will survive this test we certainly can make some conclusions about
their reliability.
Use your own judgment – the severest blows and jerks, the heaviest load for the engines
and transmissions.
It is so easy to broke something here.
But we have all terrain motorbikes – they are cut out for such conditions, aren’t
they?
Besides we have to give credit to our riders, the huge part of the success belongs to them,
it goes without saying, So If you agree with me – push the like button.
Well to our great surprise all the bikes survived this trial, so did our riders that is even
more important.
There were few negligible hitches, for example chains several times came off, but there were
no any serious breakages.
If we try to choose a winner of today battle it will be very hard task.
All the bikes have their own pros and cons.
For instance rear wheel drive bikes are cheaper, simpler and faster.
But on a hard offroad full wheel drive bikes are much better.
I personally like Master Pro for its big wheels and simple design.
But I would rather equip it with a more powerful engine.
As to the Ataman 2x2 it the only bike with the suspension, so it provides more comfortable
riding.
Taurus is the lightest bikes and it could easily move in some sites where all the others
got stuck.
After all you have seen everything and now you are able to make your own judgments.
It is very interesting to us, who you think is the winner in this battle?
