Hey YZOtis! Nice to hear from you!
You were an inspiration to me during my KTM Blaster project.
Here are some videos of me crossing mud and water with my Blaster.
While it looks like pure water but there is a foot or more of mud at the bottom of it, with the odd huge rock or log thrown in for fun. A nightmare on a motorcycle, much more manageable on a Blaster. You can hear when the Blaster is floating and paddling its way thru.
Have a good look at how deep this water is.
In this video the water is about 12" deep with about 2' of mud under it.
When I stepped off the Blaster I sank to my hip!
I used to have a skidplate under the swingarm.
I removed it because it just tended to stick me to the mud.
The sprocket is pretty tough and so far I haven't bent a disk.
Good tires are a must! Speed and floatation are your friends.
