SIMPLE, AS A SLEDGE

SIMPLE AS SLEDMy snowmobile which I called “Ayavrik”, simple in construction, as intended to overcome huge snowdrifts. I was built for moving from hole to hole for ice fishing on a snow-covered ice, writes Anton from Togliatti.

Engine snegohodi Chinese, with capacity 6.5 HP, frame is welded from rectangular tube, rubber tracks (42 link), drive and idler gears and rollers of the trolley – “buranovskie”. Guides skis – made of sheet steel, stamped. Snegohodi weight of about 75 kg. Because the engine is located ahead of (but on the side,left side) and the short muffler on the exhaust pipe put the flap and the exhaust is sent left, down.
