Man; the things people come up with!!

I rode to work in stuff like that for a few months one winter on my bone stock '72 Honda 350 Scrambler. I could wear a few knit caps for warmth because, of course, I didn't wear a helmet. I was 17.

How are any of us still alive after doing stuff like that when we were young?? :)

I'm curious how those ski's work... are they held down at all, just sit here loosely or held up by springs that he pushes against? I can't imagine a solid mount working as it would eliminate any leaning.

Any ideas?

I was thinking the same thoughts V-Tom, it looks like training wheels on a kids bike, if his wheels happens into a deep truck rut in the road, all the weight ends up on the skis and his wheels won't touch anymore. It has to fold down from his feet pushing on it.

Cornering would also not work so good unless he is controlling the height with his feet.

the only time i ever rode in snow was by accident, and it wasn't fun. waaaaayyyy back in the 80's whilst owner of a honda 700 Magna, i got caught out in a freak springtime snowstorm in nyc. slush, snow, spray. not to mention the absolute terror of riding 10 miles home on cruiser street tires!
