$69.00 winch or plow deal?
#1
does anybody know what model winch you should recieve with kawasaki promotion? does it come with the wiring, switch ect.? the only thing i should have to buy would be the mounting pad, is this correct?
now, concerning the plow, what do they actually give you, everything needed to hookup the plow to your
atv, or do you have to spend a small fortune in accessories? whats the better deal the plow or the winch?
im picking up my new prairie 700 on thursday, and the dealer said to let him know what i wanted when i picked up the bike. thanks

You live in Pennsylvania right? I bet there is alot of snow in the winter time back east. Put the p to work go with the plow. I haven't used my winch yet.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] Guess i just haven't been out rideing enough.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img] There has got to be someone out there that needs to be pulled out.

I would go with the winch, I'm sure it is more money than the plow. Then you can always get the plow later and use the winch for operating your plow up and down. A 50" moose plow with all the mounting hardware runs about $280, you don't need the manual arm to raise or lower if you have the winch. Just my opinion. Good luck.

The winch is kind of like a first aid kit. If you don't have one, sooner or later you will wish you did. If you do any kind of challenging terrain riding or going out some distance from your home or transport vehicle, at least one member of your riding group should have a winch.
For example I've been to the Hatfield McCoy area 6 times now, and 4 of those times I've had to use the winch on my Grizzly. One time was to pull a jammed chain loose from a Polaris Scrambler that had jumped off the sprocket and wedged itself tight. Another was to pull a Grizzly (not mine) back on to the trail after it went end over end a few times off the trail and down a bank (needed a ****** block here too). Two other times I've had to pull ATVs up over the crest of really steep hills after they lost their momentum and couldn't go any further. In all of these Hatfield McCoy situations it was many miles back to the trail head. In other riding situations I've also used it to pull fallen tree limbs off the trail where there otherwise was no other way to get around it. I've also used it to lift my 628 pound trail mower (that I pull with the ATV) up on it's side so I can service the blade. And finally I've used it to raise and lower my snow plow in the winter time.
(So I'd recommend the winch...)
