I think yall should do a top speed run of all the builds, take that sled to the dunes and then like straight up trail riding mud and all FULL SEND 🤘🏼🤘🏼
You guys are extremely talented. Anyone who's ever ridden a snowmobile has wondered what it would be like if the skis and track were replaced with wheels and now you've proven that it not only works but works really well. Nice job!!!
The last year or so i have been recovering from a massive setback thats really tested my mental health, your guys channel is one of the main things thats helped pull me through the darker parts of this chapter! As a temporarily not fabricating fabricator you guys really help keep me plugged in with that vision of using my mind to create mechanical things 🧠 thank you guys! I hope to build & shred with yall in the near future 🤘🏽
Joe Condol .....agree with “the dude” above.....keep ur head up. Keep your gears turning and start small if bigger fabrication is not possible at the moment. Modify or fab parts for model trains, etc. I find creativity is a big helper
I legit was thinking about this last night on the highway when I saw someone towing a snowmobile. I was thinking "why doesn't anyone make a badass looking offroad/sporty reverse trike? I would certainly buy one of those..." (the guy was towing an Artic Cat) then I pull up youtube today and see "Hey you! Surprise! We read your mind!" Coincidence much :) Epic Vid guys!
Many claim to think outside the box, and few actually make their thoughts a reality. Thanks Grind Hard for blowing the lid off! I can almost smell the burning castor 927 from here.
@@bigdawg1108 thinking outside the box wasn't putting wheels on it... I remember 2x4's with skate wheel sets for trucks on something people called a skateboard lol. All it was was a board with wheels on it lol. Whatever call me easily impressed with two strokes and horsepower... but then again I had a Glamis addiction.
You guys are INSANE, Ethan is beyond CRAY CRAY. His engineering and fabrication skills are most PROFESSIONAL. Edwins videography is FIRST CLASS. His composition, sound track and drone piloting are beyond professional.
When I say I’ve never wanted something so badly in my life before I mean it, and by god have I never wanted something so badly in life before, sick build man, I freakin love it
I am a Flatlander snowmobiler from the Midwest - been into it since 1991. I have seen a few snowmobiles with converted wheels on the front but have never seen anything this radical and cool! Will be interesting to see if that radiator does the trick to cool that 1000 cc beast (snowmobile cooling system has much more surface area + cold weather and snow dust to help out). Love the cool builds - nice job! Still want to see a rad TRACKED VEHICLE!
Yea very cool but they'll never mass produce a trike like this for off-road use it's just inherently too unstable... This exact build as a quad tho.. that has real potential!! Just throw a straight axle and one more bearing back there and you've got a serious Machine.. not saying its bad like it is but quads corner better than bikes ( unless the bike has a burm or rut to use which probably shouldn't count) there's no getting around it.. and a trike is, practically speaking, kind of is the worst of both worlds...here's a bad joke: a bike trike and quad ride a trail and just over a crest (little time to see it) there's a nasty rim bender of a pothole... The bike goes around, the quad straddles it but the trike... I was the guy on the trike... A reverse trike with an active leaning system definitely has potential ( vs motorcycles) on pavement but the when you start needing lots of suspension travel and you're riding on instead of in the thing there's exponentially more to go wrong...
@@ianbuilds7712 LMFAO you do realize its as stable as a snowmobile is right which isnt all that stable. Its about the riders ability. So saying they cant mass produce something like this is dumb hence they already did so your point was invalid.
@@IamJoeTV snow is soft making a sled able to lean into turns... It's a lot more like riding a jet ski with rudders in the front than it is like a trike that's partly why this looks so different driving compared to a sled..( which is what brought me to the active lean thing... I mean I don't need to make the point quads are better than trikes... And so are bikes.. (I would rather ride a trike) The point was made in the late 80s when they stopped making trikes for off road use..
ian builds You got that wrong again. I live in Canada. First off riding a sled on a groomed trail vs riding in 6inches vs 5 feet of snow are all completely different. I own snowmobiles, quads, go-karts, a jet ski, a motorcycle. If you think trikes are unstable, go research a 3 wheel morgan and the racing behind it. You have a lot to learn kid.
ian builds a trail snowmobile on an icy hard packed groomed trail is not fucking leaning into corners like a jetski. You shift your body weight into the turn and it’s extremely stable.
Actually the G-force on a quad bike in a corner, means that you're more likely to topple straight sideways, but the 3 point in this configuration makes it much more stable.
This is my 1st video of you guys, I am very impressed! I love toys! I have a coleman adult mini bike with a 10 horse Tillotson racing engine on it, and a torque converter. It does wheelies.Not comparable to that thing he has, but cool and unique as well.
I would like to know who disliked this video. EPA representatives? This is the most awesome thing I’ve ever seen you guys build. Senderalla and the Colonel are pretty rad but this is so much simpler that it’s almost more practical. I love it and I need one!
Air cleaner on a sled just keeps out large stuff from entering , not a filter for dust at all .. and the belt will just wear much faster - again made for cold air and not dust getting brought in and squeezed against the sheaves , ramps and belt . Pretty neat !
Seems like a good idea, since the Honda atc 250r didn’t eradicate enough people. Maybe 4 times the engine size and switching the wheel configuration should finish the job.
I have been watching for sometime now and this is I would say the best build I have ever saw. Outstanding boy’s all the way from Ontario Canada’s North
I'm in the process of just slapping a 150hp arctic cat 2 stroke zr800 engine in an old carbed 4x4 polaris scrambler 400 frame. Its easier to just engine swap an old quad thats already 4x4
It would mean having to design a transaxle which could reach the sides of the engine. But unfortunately due to the CVT and exhaust blocking the way, it meant there won't be much room for such possibilities.
That look like it was straight from the factory that way. Wow you did a great job but honestly that’s no big surprise because all your work is that way. I don’t know if you were trained or you just learned as you go but your fabrication and engineering skills are amazing and are very professional. Your projects are always ten times that of any other project on RUclips. This is one cool trike thanks for sharing.
Back around 06, 07 I helped a guy who converted his 05 rx1. He had used the rear arm from a yamaha big wheel which uses an offset jackshaft within the arm. He drove his on the street. Used mustang wheels. Looks fun.
this is awesome! I would build a tunnel, or sleeve for the chain.. It will protect it when you bottom out, and keep that long length from flopping all over the place before it hits the tensioner..
I love watching GHP because no matter how insane an idea might seem you guys find a way to make it work. My only question is when are you going to patent one of your designs and find a way to get it produced for sale to the public?
Having grown up on motorcycles, I am almost completely against anything with three wheels . . . but I am also from Northern Michigan where snowmobiles are just another form of transportation. I wanted to dislike this concept, but I just can't. It's f'n awesome. Keep it up!
It's sorta reality warping how normal that thing looks. My brain kept telling me that I have always loved those things, and that last week we watched the X-Trike Nationals. I think you guys invented another new motorsport!

you guys are pretty remarkable, i don't know how other viewers feel about your videos for for me it's kinda enjoyable watching you guys live the kind of life most of us can only dream about, but with that said, this is the first time i can say i'm actually feeling a little jealous because this reverse trike is the first one of your builds that i am feeling anxiety over not being able to ride it, nothing is a bigger high then being able to look over your shoulder and seeing a gigantic roost kicking up behind you....
Thanks to eBay motors for sponsoring this video ebay.com/atv-utv What do you guys think of the new build!?!
When did this jewel get built?!
I think yall should do a top speed run of all the builds, take that sled to the dunes and then like straight up trail riding mud and all FULL SEND 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Absolutely love it! Coolest dudes on the planet.
Put a. Four wheeler axle on it 4 tires
I wish y'all where local I have a perfect utv sway bar for that
This thing’s incredible boys

My jaw is on the floor and I'm foaming from the mouth. That build is pure genius!
bruh i’ve thought of it before too,’i would’ve left the track on but eh
@@bigdawg1108 yeah but I think the slides would melt real fast no?
Your turning radius would suck with a 162 track
Genius??? The damn thing wants to flip over on every turn. Should have made a giant quad.
You might want to seek medical treatment
This thing is hands down the most awesome build I've seen on RUclips yet ...incredible

Keep it up brother! This is my FAVORITE channel and I’ve been rocking the merch for years!
The world needs a basic stripped down trike like this for the road.
All I have to say is G.H.P. kills it every single time and this is no exception!! One of my favorite builds so far! Great work gentlemen 👍👏
Thanks man!!

i was thinking the exact thing. or up in coal country climbing the culm banks like we used to with all our 2 stroke 3 and 4 wheelers !!
wyatt lassiter my first thought exactly!👍
Exactly what I was thinking the whole time this played...
Def would be a great hill climber with different rear tire... badass!!
That is amazing!!! Ethan killed it again! Best builder/fabricator on youtube
I wanna see them take it to a sled shop for a “tuneup” and film the reaction
“Welcome back everyone, we did a thing while you were gone”
“So I did some mining off camera...”

I’m going to try with help to make one or two!
The style of the videos has been changing a bit lately but I love it
Ethan drives knowledge is incredible.he can drive/ride anything and makes it look so easy.
What they said: “reverse trike”
What they meant: “ultra-mobile trenching machine”
Facts
Lmao spittin facts

Finally something that deserves the "Widow Maker" name.
Did you see that scooter dirt bike thing they built a few yrs back that thing was dangerous

Metöö
Saw him on tv for a tree house
The power of you're intellect is divine how many times can you make the coolest thing we've ever seen ??
Instantly liked the video! You guys have the best videos!
That thing is insane!! I bet that 1000 2 stroke is insanely loud without snow on the ground!!! Nice job!!
I feel like having 2 rear wheels would be more practical and definitely more traction but I love how weird and cool it is as a trike
Sir that's called a quad
4 wheels would make it more practical indeed, but also less scary
We should build a 4 wheeler snowmobile as well!
Actually the G-force on a quad bike in a corner, means that you're more likely to topple straight sideways, but the 3 point in this configuration makes it much more stable.
@@GrindHardPlumbingCo yes
I need to see this in sand with paddles. F-ing love this! Keep it up.
You NEED to get this thing on some dunes!!!

An adjustable steering damper might be helpful too!
I was thinking the same thing.
I work at a CanAm dealership and I’ve been wanting to put a sand tire on the back and ribbed tires up front, thank you for this!
I've always been inspired by y'all builds I want to build something like this one day
I didn’t know a channel could be my spirit animal. From one fuller sender to another I salute you.
“How can we even out the middle rut around the course?
.. Reverse Trike!”
That's what I was thinking.... Even out the ruts of all my friends tracks and dig the center down.....
I would like to know who disliked this video. EPA representatives? This is the most awesome thing I’ve ever seen you guys build. Senderalla and the Colonel are pretty rad but this is so much simpler that it’s almost more practical. I love it and I need one!

True...
You took a very old idea (wheel adaptors for the skis) and updated it to awesomeness. Absolutely wicked👍🏻👍🏻
Seems like a good idea, since the Honda atc 250r didn’t eradicate enough people. Maybe 4 times the engine size and switching the wheel configuration should finish the job.
Ok,
You ever look at something and just feel like you NEED it..
Great job guys 👍
When u realize that thing has more horses than a Miata
Out of a single liter engine 😳
@@aeroboozt9455 it's a 2 cylinder
@@american_patriot1776 are u dumb? single liter means 1000cc not single cylinder
You guys keep outdoing yourselves... it's amazing
You should turbo it
Like it so he sees it If you agree
That is the coolest thing I've seen in A LONG time!
Love the frequent uploads, but they’re short.... deflating the tires a tad will give more controlled squishey ride, and more traction.
I have been watching for sometime now and this is I would say the best build I have ever saw. Outstanding boy’s all the way from Ontario Canada’s North
That thing needs a steering stabilizer, it looks terrifying XD
Need longer a-arm , more camber and skinnier tire like on sport quad for it to handle good
upvote this , i posted something similar...they gon' end up in the weeds or worse....
Pls notice this,dont wanna lose great fabricator anytime soon.
Sick boys I built mine out of a golf trike and a pit bike combo it’s a death trike so much fun in the scariest way ,luv ya work fellas cheers
Those 1000 sdi’s have a lot of issues just so you know
This is what i’ve been looking for and dreaming to build for literally years
Any thought on awd for the summit with a chain driven diff from older polaris 2 stroke series quads?
I'm in the process of just slapping a 150hp arctic cat 2 stroke zr800 engine in an old carbed 4x4 polaris scrambler 400 frame. Its easier to just engine swap an old quad thats already 4x4
That’s a beast. Wildest build yet
“I did some mining off camera”
This
very impressive! wondered if somebody has or actually done this to a snowmobile,glad I found the video, great job!!
Convert it to three wheel drive, then you'll see massive acceleration and traction..
It would mean having to design a transaxle which could reach the sides of the engine. But unfortunately due to the CVT and exhaust blocking the way, it meant there won't be much room for such possibilities.
