Snowmobile "Husky": technical characteristics and reviews

Mini-snowmobile "Husky" was designed to move on a smooth smooth surface of frozen rivers and lakes, smooth rolled snow. It differs markedly from typical representatives of snowmobile transport with its simple and uncomplicated design.

General impressions

At first glance at the snowmobile "Husky" comes a comparison with an ordinary bicycle, which skillful hands turned into a moped by installing an engine on it. Such an association arises from the tubular lightweight construction of the snowmobile. The bicycle steering wheel only enhances the impression. Small skies and a short caterpillar make it impossible to use it on deep loose snow. Do not allow this and do not particularly powerful engine.

Despite such shortcomings, this option is capable of things not available to other representatives of this class of transport. It is easily disassembled into several parts, which turns the Husky snowmobile into a light overall cargo that fits easily in the trunk of the car. This transformation makes it indispensable for ice-fishing enthusiasts. Fishermen represent the bulk of buyers of this transport.

From the owner does not require any special skills and skills in running a small snowmobile - it is extremely simple to operate and maintain. In addition, its technical features do not require registration and the presence of a driver's license.

Specifications

A simple and light car can drive its owner with a maximum speed of 22 km / h. A small fuel tank holds only 3.6 liters of gasoline. This wave is enough for three hours of trouble-free operation. The snowmobile "Husky" is designed for a payload of 120 kilograms. It is also capable of towing sleds loaded up to 100 kg. The snowmobile caterpillar has a width of 380 mm with a length of 1818 mm. The specific pressure on the surface is 36 grams per square centimeter. This makes it possible to overcome the snowmobiles with full load loose horizontal snow cover, not exceeding 30 cm. On the slopes and snow dumps this machine has nothing to do. He is able to overcome gently sloping to 20 degrees.

Constructor

The front telescopic suspension is supported by two short skis. The rear has a simple balanced structure.

The four-stroke engine produces a small horsepower of 6.5 horsepower. This is quite enough, given the mass of the snowmobile, which is 79 kg. The lubrication system holds only 600 grams of oil. The engine starts in manual mode - there is no starter. There is no model and lighting devices, which makes it impossible to operate in the dark.

The unique design, which does not have world analogues, makes the snowmobile a convenient transformed transport. It's easy to turn it into an easily transportable oversized cargo, ready to be transported by any car.

The design is disassembled without a special tool in a matter of minutes. The biggest weight has a part with an engine and a caterpillar - 31 kg. This makes loading a snowmobile into the trunk possible, even for older anglers.

Price policy

As it became clear from the design features, the Husky snowmobile is a budget and affordable model. Its cost is about 60 thousand rubles, which makes the unit one of the most affordable among low-cost options. A small price fluctuation may depend on the region of implementation and the salon of moto-technology. Some sellers in the form of a discount in the purchase of snowmobiles offer a gift drags - light towed sleigh, which will pull a useful cargo along the snowy plain. This year, since April, an unprecedented action has started - dealers have established the cost of the device in 49 thousand rubles! This opens an opportunity for those who have long dreamed of purchasing a snowmobile "Husky". The price, which has fallen by almost 20 thousand, makes it the most affordable snowmobile on the planet, which could not but affect the sales. Despite the off-season, they have risen to record levels.

Owner and snowmobile "Husky"

The reviews positively characterizing the model are quite numerous. The main advantage of all owners consider the ability of the unit to fit in the trunk of a car. Special thanks to the owners who do not have garages and sheds - they quietly store their snowmobile on the balcony. The simplicity and reliability of the power unit are also worthy of praise. Many fishermen successfully exploit snowmobiles for more than one year.

Snowmobile is ideal for lovers of winter fishing retirement age - there is no need to roam on slippery ice for several kilometers, carrying a bulky fishing box and fearing a slip and something to break yourself or to fight off.

And so - out of the car, took out of the trunk fragments of snowmobiles, collected and went to himself quietly drill holes in the middle of the reservoir.

Disadvantages of the model

Despite the simplicity of the design, it is possible to list some of the negative qualities that the customers who exploited the Husky snowmobile discovered. Reviews of owners containing critical comments can be distributed as follows:

1. A small area of a caterpillar track.
2. Short skis. With a large mass of the driver falls into the snow.
3. Absence of any instruments - speedometer, fuel level.
4. Friability of the structure. Apparently, this deficiency was noticed by owners with excess weight.
5. Lack of road lighting.
6. Small amount of fuel tank.

All of the above deficiencies do not contain any complaints about the motor - there was not any chance of meeting the work of the power unit. All the others, most likely, are connected with attempts to exploit this model as a normal snowmobile, which was initially erroneous. Its element is the even, frozen surface of rivers and lakes. There is no thick snow - on large open spaces it is blown out by the wind. There are no any deviations or irregularities, driving on which, most likely, and became the cause of the breakdown.

The lack of stationary lighting is easy to fix. It is quite sufficient to use a conventional diode lamp. You're not on the road on it going to go.

As we can see, the negative experience testifies to attempts to use the Husky snowmobile in conditions for which it was not originally designed. Therefore, before buying it is better to make sure that you need this particular unit. Then for many years you will provide yourself with an unpretentious assistant.
