slaughter - I am guessing you don't understand the appeal of taking a snowmobile across water...

Think about this - what happens on a motorcycle if you stop moving and don't put your feet down...

Alright... got that image? Now think about what happens if you close the throttle on a snowmobile while it is on the water. Just the fact that you take a snowmobile on the water is pretty sexy in itself. It is fun... the longest gap I ever went across was about 25 feet... some serious pucker power during that.

yeah guys.. the snow ride was not intentional... lol..

it wasn't supposed to be.. i just expected a 40* ride home, but instead it was37 and snowing like a champ..

remember.. i'm an ex squid.. i used to go play in this stuff on the 600 all the time, for bout 4 or 5 years in a row.. stuntin and growing old and wise (read:cautious) has kept me fromcrashing a sportbike in adverse conditions for many years now..

thanks for the concern guys!! you are the best.

Snowmobiles are fun. I'd stick to a 2smoke though. I've rode my KLX through a small blizzard last week when school was closed. Parents were at work, I was powersliding through turns on the road. It was kinda scary when I came completely sideways around a 1.5 lane road and met a plow truck. I just bumped his plow a little bit and slid. Me and the bike were fine, he got out and asked me if I was alright and stuff and he was asking about the bike and if I liked it. He asked me what road I lived on so he could plow it last. He was a pretty nice guy, most people would be flipping s*** if I bumped them at 15 mph. Thank god he was stopped or I would have been toast.

hahaha, i love dem' plow guys. i almost took out my rancher with one, i was going down my bigass hill, hopped the snowbank adn guess who was behind my camper... a double wide polw[&:][>:] he stopped and sorta smiled and gestured "get outta the road genius" so i took off back up my yard and kept it in my trails for a bit. i wish more ppl were like that, everyone has such a low tolerance for people riding atv's and bike's nowadays. before i started to threatin my neighbors i couldnt even be out in my yard for 5mins before a cruiser would mysterousily "show up" and tell me keep it off the streets. the coolest cop i ever met pulled up, got out of his cruiser and started to ask me what i could do on it. i kinda put on a mini stunt show after 20mins of talking, then he told me to put the sparkarrestor back in to shutup the lady across the street and stay safe and drove off. the gayest one gave me a $40 ticket for illegal road use of an ohrv vehicle, second offence.

I'm still confused as to what a 1.5 lane road is.
