I have a '97 Honda Foreman which I have used extensively to plow snow with. I currently have a manual lift system, but would like to convert to a winch. I have several questions regarding this:
1. Which winch would you recommend?
2. Any experience with how much clearance the blade will have on a Foreman in the up position?
3. Is installation best left to a shop?
4. I assume that the lift switch is mounted on the left handlebar. Any interference with the reverse mechanism?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Greg[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Beeg's How old is your plow system? I just bought a new cycle country system ,and it is totally re-designed and lifts totally different than my 1999 plow system. First off I have a warn winch on my "01" Rancher 4x4 and tried it for my plow , WAY too Slow!!!!! Second thing is it is confusing to use if you have ES shift. Too much to do with left hand. May work for you.Try it
