I live in Michigains Upper Peninsula and we see a bunch of snow. I sold my Polaris but kept the plow when I picked up my 400 Outlander xt.
Do any of you have a 400 that you plow with? I’m trying to decide if I want to put the plow set up on the Outlander or my wifes "tractor" (a 2002 Suzuki King Quad 300). I call it the tractor because its built like a tank. I’m thinking the diff lock and super low range might be a small advantage for plowing. I’m also thinking she doesn’t see as much trail time as I do so the plow carriage might see less abuse in the bush. The manual shift and shaft drive might hold up better than the belt but it’s going to be a bunch of shifting.
The Auto on the Outlander would be nice for plowing. The added ground clearance of the Outlander would be a advantage too. The Outlander sees a lot more trail time and mud so the plow carrage is going to get beat and might hang up the bike in the woods,
I have a big area to plow. 2 driveways. I have four lots and my house and garage are on opposite corners. I also live on a dead end road with a dead end Alie to my garage. Both are about an 1/8 mile long. I live in the country so if it snows on Friday night or Saturday morning, we wont see a snow plow until some time Monday. I plow a lot!
