ya, everyone shoots it down because of the angles you encounter in steering and trying to twist it they say its a pain in the butt and dangerous too. look it up on snowest, i asked about it awhile ago, they all said no, even the ones that tried it.

Yeah.... cray idea. I wont even use one on a quad.
Machines are just to heavy and ridden so much different then a bike.

Seen it on a couple of old guy sleds. Probably to compensate for worn out body parts. Might be OK for "seat in the saddle" non agressive trail riding. Any other riding it could get you trouble.

I'd tried it years ago, it has it's pluses and minuses. I got it from a hill climb guy and I guess when leaning up over the windshield going straight up it's good, I couldn't get use to it in the woods though..........
