[X400EX]

Hi all,

Here's what I done last week-end with old skis and a little bit of black spray paint :

It's not very good looking but it's so much better than these damn wheels in deep snow!

Leave some comments. ;)

How about some action pics?:D

[my88r]

[X400EX]

Ahahaha! Yeah, some action pics.

I would but it's too dark here at this hour. I must take some tomorrow or this week-end.

:D

Looks sweet! was it really hard to do? i think it might be cool to do just for the fun of it

[CarGuy7a]

that's killer looking man. the best mod i've seen so far.

[tdmopar59]

why not just get a snowmobile??? LOL it is sick though... haven't seen that before... just swap it out in the summer?

[X400EX]

Thanks for your comments!

It was easy to do and really good upgrade for the snow, LOT better than wheels in front.

Snowmobile? What's that? lol

[TRXRacer1]

LOL, good stuff! I did that years ago on my 86R. Just don't get that front end up too high...........;)

I've just took some old skis from a sled, black paint and bolted that up to the front hubs.

Merci, monsieur de la beauce!

Thanks for the comments. ;)

Looks like a LOT of fun!

I have seen a company on Ebay that makes adapters for this for around $70. Ebay item 4590714662

Here are some of their pics...

Looks mint, I've toyed with the idea but I never get around to it, besides I ride the MXZ in the snow, and the quads when theres dirt. Good job though

[97WarriorRider]

so they just bolted right up to the hubs

[X400EX]

Yep, exactly.


Thank you for the idea 08400EX, I might take a look at it.

[scuzz]

I just got a pond skimming idea!

cool pic Scuzz, ski would be a bit nicer on the water. I've come out 90 degrees from the direction I was traveling in when skipping water, it didn't feel so good...

[scuzz]

:)

Yeah, a few budies of mine do that e-v-e-r-y time they go riding in Mississippi. They figured out by accident one time creek riding and now they do it every time the weather is warm enough.

The raptor does it easy, the 400EX throws you over the handle bars violently.

That water is about 10' deep about 15' behind where he is in that picture.:eek2:

[X400EX]

Wow, crazy pic scuzz!

Do you have any more of them?

[scuzz]

I actually have a video, but it's in "DVD" format. I need to decode and post.

Because those damn raptors have REALLY light front ends, they probably glide right over the water.

[scuzz]

Yeah you should see them as they start slowing down, the frontend starts shaking violently.
