Hello All,
Yesterday I picked this bad boy up to rip around the winter, its so much fun i love it. I have a couple questions but ill leave that up for the general section.
Its a 2001 Blasty, FMF Gold series header, FMF Power Core II Silencer, Boysen Reeds.
I live in Chicago, we got tons of snow today and its so damn fun,
How good are these in about 5-12 inches of snow?
Anyway!!

Welcome to the forum. You need to block off your oil injection and premix your gas though before it fails and blows the motor.

[Blasterb0y794]

Nice blaster, I've got two 2001s! They're excellent in 6" of snow, maybe even up to 8".....but over 12" and they just don't want to move.

It depends what the snow's like. If it's powdery you can probably drive right through it providing theirs decent traction underneath and you have okay tires. If you can't get through, start shoveling

if you get the winter conversion tires yo can driv in 2 feet of snow ( ski fronts and tread backs) although i dont know if they make for the blaster
