Snowdog Build TEST RUN! Part 5

IT'S DONE!! Taking the Snowdog out for a TEST RUN!
Actually "Snowdog" is a brand name. These are called Motodogs, or Track Sleds.
If anyone is interested in building one of these, look up the Facebook group "Track Sled Builds Of The North". Lots of great info on there from folks that have done this before.
Lots of Russian videos here on You Tube also. This is a Russian invention and they seem to be popular over there.
Really, it wasn't that hard to do. Gathering the parts and studying up on how to do it took me about 2 years. Actual building time was about two or three weeks.
I have no idea about the cost since most of the parts were scavenged. The engine was the most money. (420cc/14 horse) I think I paid about $300 on sale, but it's a $400 engine.
Electric start would be nice to have, but costs more. I'm guessing I might have $600 into this, but the commercial Snowdog brand ones sell for $3,000-$4,000 depending on model and extras.
Here we go!! Enjoy!
