Hello all,
My name is Brian and this is my first post on snowest.
My experience in single ski bikes or hawks is very limited but I have an extensive background in atvs.
I have raced local and national hare scramble events for over a decade having won many titles and championships-but enough about me:face-icon-small-hap
I really wanted to share my thoughts about my latest and greatest toy,
an explorer kit for my 05 honda crf450r.
About a week ago I met Mike from explorer kit direct at a demo event in Little Valley,NY.
I was there with some good friends who had invited me to see and ride the explorer conversions, but truthfully I just wanted to put some miles on my new sled.
We spent a few hours tearing around and shooting some video but I had not ridden any snobikes until the sun was just starting to go down.
It was then that I had my first ride on the KTM250.
What can I tell you-after 2 minutes I had a grin from ear to ear and just had to have one.
This came as a big suprise to my crew as I would have won the vote for least likly to buy a conversion kit hands down.
Instalation was very straight forward and took about 5 1/2 hours to complete.
Sunday was spent riding and playing with all the configuration options the kit makes available.
The fun factor of this machine is 2nd to none.I am not a bike guy at all but I found myself powersliding hard corners at speed like a pro!
My friends and I came away with a new appreciation for winter motorsports.
Take it from a veteran quad/snowmobile guy these kits are the most fun you can have in the snow bar none.I cant wait to ride again.
Big thanks to Mike from explorer kits direct,not only for his top notch service and support but also for giving me the oppertunity to experience snobikes first hand at his expense.
