What a hell of a good machine........

I think it plows better than my 800.

I used to have one of those! Front "shocks" gave U about an inch or two of very soft travel. Can't say that I miss it.

Be sure to read the extra comments I've posted on the video. Hope this helps for anyone thinking about fabricating their own 3-wheeler plow.

Also, be sure to check out my other YouTube videos!

I don't know if I could spend the time you do plowing! Looks fun but when I'm plowing its at about 10-15mph as fast as I can to get it done! ha
Good work though! Very thorough video!

Works well, shouldn't you be plowing the snow out of your driveway and into the ditch across the street?

Just posted "Part 2" this morning. This should tie up any loose ends and answer any additional questions anyone considering making one of these may have. Be on the look-out for "Part 3" coming this summer with specific measurements once I have the entire plow set-up off the bike...and also when it's not freezing cold where I'm in a hurry to get back into the house!

LOL! I don't own that property, so I'm not even gonna go there! Also, my driveway is on a slight downhill slope, so it's much easier to just plow the snow downhill and off to the sides of the driveway.
