Where would i get chains? This is my fathers machine and seeing as he doesnt care much about aggressive tires im sure he would opt for chains. How much are they?

I found this walk-around video on YouTube. The guy has 4 walk-around videos of his bike with the plow setup. This link is for Part 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utwARpn0YUk Part 3 isn't so good, but Part 4 makes up for it.
He's also got a bunch of good videos of himself actually plowing with his Big Red.
Has anyone ever been able to get one of the yellow Cycle Country grips for on the handle? If so, where?
Thats the million dollar question good buddy. I have tried almost every phrase or word for it on the net and couldnt yield any results. Maybe you might have better luck than I. However I will admit that I didnt do the logical thing which would be to call cycle country altogether.
I just bought a replacement last month for this, Cycle Country has them on the website.

This is so awesome! I just ordered one! $9-something is a bit much to ship a $1.99 handle grip that probably weighs like 1 ounce, but still, I won't complain. Thanks so much for sharing that site. I really appreciate it!
Yeah i thought it was too so when i ordered i tossed in a bunch of other parts, spare set of skids, some pins, figured if i am paying $9 shipping might as well make it worth it.. LOL
When you get it put a little liquid nails adhesive inside the grip, just a dab will do ya, and then slide it on. Mine kept working its way off a bit and spinning around so i glued it.

Are these grips just plain yellow as in the pics or do they say cycle country on them like the originals?
Just plain yellow i think, i would have to go outside and look but i don't recall it saying anything on them. They are the current production version they use on all their plows now.

KB- the older plows like i have - i just use a long bolt to hold the blade in 1 of the 3 positions - do they sell an actual bolt for it? I guess what i am asking is do you know what originally went in there?
Got my plow grip with yesterday's mail. It does NOT say "Cycle Country" on it. In fact, it doesn't say anything on it. But still, I'm not complaining. I love it!
kb0nly - I'm going to take your advice with the liquid nails adhesive as soon as I can get to a hardware store. Thanks again!
Also, check out this new video I posted from yesterday:

I love my cycle country plow, made all the snow we got couple days ago a breeze. Oldtime3wheeler is exactley right, if you are having a big storm come in, you need to do it a couple times. But the cool part is I actually have fun now doing my snow, shoveling it by hand blows!
I have the same version, its just basically a small hitch pin that you put in to hold the position.
