Used to do it with the wee 120s and the 3 wheelers.... It involved blowing up the shit out of the tire.... More air sir moooorrrreeeee!!!!!
Anything will float as long as the weight of the object is lighter than the weight of the water that the object displaces. So either biff the dog off the quad or put the quad on a boat, Either one will work!
yeah mate be keen on feedback on this need to do thompsoms track !!! haha
Like I said blow the tire up with shitloads a air.... Duhhhhh.... We used a cross the rangitata all da time like this lol
dont try it in a flooded creek with 5 packs on - atv, submarine,atv,submarine in that order as it rolled down the creek with me hanging onto the back:D

Note the snorkels
You'd be more of a "c" cup wouldn't you?:D
It would depend entirely on the quad and its tires and the weight of its rider whether it would fully float or not.
ARdave here is a thought. As an added measure strap an empty 20 litre water container low on to the front and the back of the quad. That will displace forty kilos of water and as water weighs a kilo per litre that would give you an extra forty kilos of lift (flotation).
haha cool will be sitting there with our quads biggest boggiest mud puddle ya ever seen ,,,will send me mate in first with the words following the Big bad bob said shell be sweet:pacman:,,,,might go track down a good compressor today
