sorry to here that. my ice minibike rips.i did put ice racing ice screws in the tires tho.i made sure to jet mine for cold weather and it starts 2nd pull on choke.i can do almost 30 on ice but no need too.will pull 2 tandem shanties easily too.mine is a baja warrior..screws make the difference because I could do wheelies on the ice.4 inches of snow no problem on the ice.

Glad it works for you, I really wanted to make it work......just wasn't for me I guess. It just seemed like more work than what it was producing.

I hear ya.it beats the heck out of walking.i just slap it on a hitch cargo carrier.i only went that route because I have minibikes laying around.i don't have room for a quad or snowmobile in my truck or a trailer to haul them.i do have a quad and a snowmobile but getting in and out of the unplowed launches with a trailer sucks.if theres even enough room to park.lol

I am waiting patiently on what comes of the ice auger machines.....also both snowmobiles and atv have a relatively hefty tag price....

So is it common practice for all these retailers to offer great deals then cancel the order? (sure sounds like it!)

Are they / their systems incompetent or are they trying to drive more traffic to their site and sell non sale items? I ordered a $379 shanty for $199 on Christmas from Bass Pro and it was still being offered on 12/27 and then the order was cancelled.

I'm obviously still in the market for a deal on a one man flipover ....  wonder what else i will buy now that i see all these good deals here  ;D

Reeds has the Eskimo Evo1 for $199 plus $49 shipping. That's a good price for that shanty.

A classical Honda 3 seems still way large. Also in my part of MN there is basically no snow on the ice, the wind took it all away....snowmobile is way large.......I could certainly get either of those or even atv for less than a new snowdog but the issue for me is hauling it all out there......I do have a tilt trailer and can use both ATV and snowmobile but they are a pain for me to load, unload, travel with. I want something quick for after work.....I was really hoping this bike would have worked....

Should have bought the green camo version  from walmart when they are on sale for $399.99 do a search for colemen ct200u mini bikes you can soup them up with products sold else ware.. seen large adults riding them too by green camo I am talking the one with front schocks..  to soften the ride..


By the way they sell same motors that go in the colemen mini bikes  I think at harbor freight  according to videos on you tube I have watched. Cheaper then other sell  colmen motor for.. so much info on these bikes..  a lot of it's tuning for cold weather.. and ya they make clutch up grades for these mini bikes.. might want to search it all out before you lose money if that's what's going on when you return it??

.      Had a overtons order been 7 days now and no conf. That it shipped and called customer service and they seemed very confused. Said had to track it and will call back tomorrow. Been hearing bad things about overtons cancelling orders, hope I’m not on the sh*+ list With the cancelled orders I will be pissed !!!

Picked up a clearanced Garmin Striker 7dv for $195(reg. $399.99) today at Dick’s. Now I just have to decide how I want to set it up for ice. First step, figure out battery...
I should’ve chosen Fishin’Mortician as my username… ;-)

Checked on my 25/25 overtons order yesterday.... "We're sorry, it seems that both items you ordered are back ordered from the vendor. As soon as they have stock they'll be shipped directly from the vendor."

One from Striker, one from Clam.

Now taking bets on how long before one or both items get cancelled.

So as long as I'm not trying to enter so crazy coupon code is Overton's reliable? I'm on order attempt #4 with Dick's Sporting Goods and they still haven't gotten it right

What manufacturer? One of mine was striker, and during the entire debacle with my predator suit I was told by them directly that they're not getting any more stock of any of their products in for the rest of this season. If it's out of stock on their website, it'll be next year. At this point I'm just waiting to see how overtons will handle it.

I tried ordering a  gear box from the clam website it said in stock and they ended out canceling the order this was in November or December just recently.. hopeing you get what you ordered but just letting you know you may not get it..

I'm at the same point with Dick's Sporting Goods. I've attempted to make 4 online purchases and every single one has been messed up. The fourth order had to be redone 3 times and still hasn't been settled
