    Sorry in the delay for answering your e-mail.

    We appreciate your inquiry about our Sno-Traxx conversion kits. Because of the liability on 3WD ATV's, we do not provide Sno-Traxx for that make of ATV.

    Please continue to check our web page for further updates.

    Again, thank you for inquiring about our Sno-Traxx.

    Sincerely,

    Doris Mack

    This is a copy of an email I sent to "sno-traxx" concerning a snow machine conversion kit being offered again for our beloved 3 wheelers, as you can see, this is BS. Please email them, asking about 3 wheeler conversions. I WANT ONE BAD!!

    Holic you need to write them back and ask what liability? There is none. The Consent Decree is over.

    I did write back, asked what liability, but they wont give a rats what one person might say, nor will they make a kit for just one person. I think its time for a tri-z jim style email campaign. comon guys, take a minute to defend our rights as free men to ride trikes!!! I want a post from everyone who writes them!

    Couldn't you buy the rear track kit for a 400ex and put in on the 350x? Then you will just have to get a snowmobile ski and make a bracket for it.

    By liabilty I am sure that they mean insurance. Almost every company suppling products like that by law have to have liabilty insurance. So if you but their product & get hurt they are covered. Not that you would sue but I am sure that honda didn't think that people would sue either. This insurance is EXPENSIVE. I am sorry to say, but I don't think that they could ever sell enough product to make it worth their while. If you really want one see if you could buy just the back half & have a local fabrication shop build the front for you. That's what I would do. Good luck

    That thing just looks like an accident waiting to happen. I thing if I rode that thing it would only be in a straight line. Maybe they are trying to give you a hint. In a tight turn it looks like that front ski would just dig in and fold the forks. Although it would be neat to own and the picture should be added top 3WW's picture archive.

    mike, you obviously live in florida! snow machines slide really easy. see the skinny tracks? they are skinny for a reason, so it will turn. they are long for flotation, you should know that, being an aircraft mechanic! I do think the front ski is a little skinny, but.......what do I know? I know that that thing would be a big HIT on the trails and at the sled bars.
