Default Howe & Howe Tech Mini-Rip Saw

This maybe old news,my DVR doesnt show the original air date.
Anyway, anyone else see this episode and does the ATV frame and engine they used look familiar?

I recognized it, but of course they had to use an XP 850, it's the only motor out with enough ***** to move that 1200 lb monster.

Ding ding ding...

i dont know that i'd say the engine is the only one with enough *****,but combined with the stout popo frame it was the logical choice imo.
I just hope they didn't butcher their 850 that they used to drag the Badger on the trailer with for the parts lol.



85 HP? Polaris must have tweaked it for them lol.

Yeh, I saw that, that looks like it would be one sweet machine. I liked how they pulled the badger on the trailer with that XP lol

Great show...they're pretty good fabricators! One of my DVR'd shows!

Everything about the frame, motor, shift **** looked "familiar"...then they showed the wheels which was a give away!

These guys do some really cool stuff. They actually just moved their facility into the little town where I live in Southern Maine...

Yeah,I posted the thread as soon as I saw them carry the frame in...said and done they used quite a few 850 parts on that build.
I'm thinking we won't see that Sage Green 850 again lol...
