    350X Snow Plow - WHAT?????

    OK, here's the scoop - I picked up a snow plow for a 350X this weekend. It is home-made, and a darn nice job if I do say so. It's odd that anyone would ever build a plow specifically for a 350X, but hey, it's pretty cool. Here's some pics. I'm probably gonna retro-fit it to my Big Red in the future just because it has reverse, but I have to try it on the 350 for a while first.

    yeah, it stays up alright. In picture 4, it is up about 6 or 8 inces on one side and like 4 or 5 inches on the other.

    Correct, no reverse, that's why it is a "V" blade. I know, it is kinda silly, but the guy I bought it from used his 350X as a utility machine. No Kidding!!! It has a ball hitch and a rear rack, and heated grips for plowing snow. He says it does an awesome job. I'll have to wait for more snow to see. Like I mentioned above, I am going to plow with it on the X at least one time (I'll get video) - but then, I am retro fitting it onto my Big Red.

    Maybe it would be good to leave that plow on for drag racing - the front end wouldn't come up so easy

    I'll be picking up a Cycle Country plow for my Big red this weekend. Maybe I can take some good measurements and such for ya to help you get that plow on the correct machine. Dang... I wonder how many clutches he burned out on that thing??

    That's pretty nifty.

    Common sense would to be to gear it way down for the snow or at least the HEAVY snow. Have any idea if the guy did that?
