its not funny. I am actually scared to ride this thing.


Don't fret about doing that then and wait a little while. RB when he see's it will just jump straight on and gun it as he has absolutely no sense of self preservation.
Anyone who rides a Snow Job in anger will be Snow More :D

You're doing it wrong. :problem: .....the instructions say "For proper counterweight relflex torsion effect" you need a babe on the back as evidenced in this vintage photo.

Ok, so let's start from the beginning.

Winter of 2005 RB purchases "The Snow Job" from ebay at a bargain basement price. Here are a couple of photos taken from his "Drop of a Hat" journal on his website.

Image

and loaded in the infamous little S-15 Sonoma

Image



I remember when he bought it and thought "well that sounds like a stupid idea?" :lol:

Here are the advertisements I have been able to dig up online..... These first ones were used to help us fabricate the front triple clamps as all Rick purchased was the chassis and fiberglass body. No front end parts were included.

Image
Image
Image

and yes that is a Norton mounted on it....
Image

and if a Norton wasn't big and heavy enough? How's about a Z1!!!
Image

and talk about "Riding In Anger", check these guys out!
Image

This one being my FAVORITE! (You think this guy landed it?)
