  Well, I took her down the road last night and the swing arm works good so far.  We'll see how she works on the ice.  :)

  This is the "winter seat" I modified to keep my cracker-ass on the bike.  :)

  Rappy's good to go for the ice. :thumbs:  Tires look funky because of the skins to protect the Kold Kutters.

Finished studding my sons bike, it'll be his first year on the ice with a dirt bike.  ;)

   With the swing arm shortened, I needed an adjustable suspension link that had a custom length so my buddy took my spare link and modified it.  It now has a link in the middle with left and right hand threads so I can raise or lower the ass end as needed to scale out.   I also have a set of race-car scales so I can accurately measure my weight on each tire or any combo needed.   :clap:

   Well the new rear link is on tha the front is widened.  She's pretty low and I'll scale it out this week.  I had to grind a bit on the rear suspension twin-link for clearance with the shorter swing arm but she looks good.  :thumbs:

  It was frozen over last weekend,  We're heading out Sunday to plow, We'll drill first to make sure we have at least 4".  It's been cold as crap here all week so we'll be good.  :)

4" of ice is all that is required?   Call me when it doubles that :lol:

4" good for 1 ton
6" good for 2 tons
7" good for 3 tons
8" good for 4 tons

  Plenty of ice Sunday, 4-7" but the wind blew all the snow off the ice.  :'(  We got a little last night so maybe we can plow this week.  HArd to make a track with no snow for banks.  :(
