    Welcome to 3 Wheeler World Greasemonkey.

    Now that is a contraption you don't see very often, did you make it yourself? How well does it work? I see it has a front ski but I don't imagine it would turn very well.

    Welcome to the site.
    That is just bizzare! I assume for summer use you have the wheels ect? Looking at the chaindrive gearing off the final drive that must be quick. I wonder what it'd be like on sand??!!!

    Yeti

    it was manufactured by a company in Quebec , purchased/owned since 88', was great on the trapline, loves the snow, due to no running boards to hang up like a snowmobile, the unit stays level, better pics at bikepics.c*m for better resolution. the unit turns quite good due to sharp edges on ski, and has the usual center runner.
    the yeti would be useless on sand due to req. snow to lube/cool sliders, if it had boggies then it would work. max speed on gps 46 kph.
    ive pissed off my share of snowmoblers over the years due to float on snow and snowmobils sink, (also swamp)its weird the way the frt of track tries to climb up on snow, because fulcrum/pivot is at rear of track system
    FYI its the only one ive ever seen!!
    and never never run in an area of stationary drinkin fishermen, due to fact, im comitted to a lenghty conversation/ and if their drunk enuff try to improve on the design

    That is pretty awesome. The thing I like is that it looks like it would convert back to wheels in maybe under an hour. If you don't have wheels and all the stock parts for it, i'm sure they would be a good investment so you could ride the thing year round.
