    Another good trick is to get a crazy carpet (know what I mean?) and put it below the exhaust on the frame and let it hang back under the bike. This will keep the frame from plowing up snow in front of it and allow the back tires to act as paddles. My big bros idea from when he was a kid.

    Sure as ***** I got boned.
    The ski sits around for years and no one wants it but when I bring it up again someone snipes it away from me.
    Fantastic

    Fantastic group you have here.
    Did someone buy it?
    I dont see anywhere that says they did.
    I'm sure he would give you first picks on it if you wanted it...well thats what I would do since you were the first one to ask for it.

    I didn't buy it...the guy said he "wouldn't ship it" (some sort of a version of no I'd guess) anyway, he must not have heard the right numbers yet.

    I'll let you know how it works if we ever get snow again. (Or whenever I fix my clutch, I'm lazy)
    Now that's redneck.

    *new question* seeing as how this is on the same topic I was wondering does anybody have any ideas of how I can build a front ski for my trike, without welding? and that is easy fairly easy and inexpensive.

    looks like a ok idea my bud had one with a shock mounted TO THE FRONT HALF OF THE SKI TO KEEP IT ON THE SNOW SO WHEN YOU HIT RUTS IT WOULD BE BETTER ON THE FRONT END... aND NOT ABLE TO PIVOT TO MUCH.. sEE THE ONLY BAD THING I SEE ABOUT YOUR DESIGN WOULD BE THE WIDE OPE SPACE WEAR THE TIRE MAY CONTACT THE GROUND.,. mIGHT FLIP YA.. LOL gREAT IDEA THOUGH AND ON ICE SHOULD WORK GREAT//
