UTV's and ATV's general discussion.

Many more oddballs, I like the Wierd
Does ice fishing count as work?

Yup, you had to work to buy that thing.

Lol true, true

That looks cool! What is it?



Is that a Quadractor? I have not seen one in decades. Always thought they were an interesting idea.


My vintage UTV is a Coot:

Love the coot!

I almost bought one.

Yep it is a Quadractor, great in the woods and an awesome skidder with just 8hp.

I also have the plow and 3 pt hitch

Will post the story on it when home

I've seen these trailers before but don't remember who makes them, where did you get yours?

It was some company in Ohio with a name like Country Side or some name like that. I just looked and could not locate them so maybe they are gone. Nonethless, it was overly light of build and would not recommend them.

Now I remember, Country manufacturing. I appreciate the feedback. I liked the looks of them, but I think I'll stick with the one I have

What is the tracked vehicle?

 

[Paystar]

Over 9000 miles on my Kodiak now. Good, dependable machine. Not the best on steep sidehills, though. That independent suspension that gives it such a good ride makes it more prone to roll. The Honda with the straight rear axle is more stable on sidehills. I've rolled mine 3 times now.

That's some good mileage! That's one thing about the Kodiak.....they are kind of small/narrow in size.
My cousin has one and he got the same brand passenger seat as what's seen here on my 2004.5 Sportsman 500 H.O. and it looks GIANT on his Kodiak.
