I will say after the snowfall we had this year, several storms dropping over 14 inches. This plow held up great. not 1 issue with it.

@gregwikiel1218 3 года назад

Worth every penny and beats the hell out of shoveling, great videos guys

@LetDirtFly 3 года назад

Thank you! Definitely beats the shoveling!

Awesome job I have a 570 kfi it's been about 300 love that plow yours look like he did a fantastic job thank you for sharing catch you later

@droneit3160 7 месяцев назад

Awesome going to get one and your review certainly helped me...thx brother 🙂🙂🍻

@alexcarr8503 2 года назад

The best part about it. Snow removal really looks like fun. Think I will head out to Crappy Tire and pick one up. On sale right now for $ 359.99 Canadian dollars.

@wesmccoy7061 6 месяцев назад

I have a Sportman 500 HO with that plow and I love it. More than does the job and takes a beating. I swapped out the steel blade for a ploy one. And I put the flex antennas on the corners for visibility. 👍👍👍

@nathanduckeorth806 7 месяцев назад

I plowed for years with a old 350 Yamaha wolverine finally killed it,went and bought a 420 rancher with a 60in cycle country blade an it does well, that 450 is big enuff if ya take good care of it!!!

@ChefD1985 Год назад

I was thinking of upgrading my switch blade to the high rise with poly board. Never had a problem other than pushing heavy, wet late season snow. Video helped confirm upgrading is a waste of money

@jimcurrie4031 Год назад

I just got my Kolpin Plow installed on my 700 Artic Cat.... We had 8 inches of wet snow this week in New Brunswick Canada. Plow worked great.... I need to improve my plowing strategy to reduce the number of passes on the driveway. We also have a gravel driveway & got hocked up a few times.... I do plan to install chains on the rear wheels..... great video guys

@wesmccoy7061 6 месяцев назад

There is a hack on RU-vid to put a length of abs pipe over ur cutting edge for gravel driveways and lawns. I’ve done it. Works amazing. Plow awesome 👍👍

@kmadigan1347 2 года назад

I have one on my foreman 500 I got it about 3 years ago for around 200 and it is awesome, I list the plow as I am coming to the end to stack the snow and I’ve made piles as large as my 8-6 v plow can make. I’m sure kolpin didn’t plan on it being used as hard as I do but I didn’t get it to be nice to it

@EricJohnson-jc1fg 2 года назад

This looks so satisfying. 😉

@LetDirtFly 2 года назад

It was!

@gior7772 3 года назад

Seems like a really good plow for that price point , we have the Polaris plow , which I can say is nice as far as mounting and connecting but for that price you can’t beat that.

@LetDirtFly 3 года назад

For the money is definately worth it.

@timberray9572 2 года назад

I bought an old Sportsman 500 that came with a factory 60inch plow, I had my doubts because I could tell the plow had not been used much. The shoes were set too low and the springs were far too loose, once I had everything dialed in I was really impressed with how much snow I could move with it.

@LetDirtFly 2 года назад

It is surprising how well they do.

@MP-gk1hs 3 года назад

This is the system we install for our customers on smaller budget. No issues , prob a doz installed.

@LetDirtFly 3 года назад

Awesome! It seems great so far!

@Chris-no8qi 3 года назад

Got the same one mounted on same bike as Marshall. Have had some breakage on mounting plate but easily fixed. Mostly my fault as a rookie plow merry but yeah been super happy with the kolpin switchblade plow.

@LetDirtFly 3 года назад

Awesome! Glad to know it’ll work on the can am!

@Chris-no8qi 3 года назад

@@LetDirtFly ummm mabey not lol I broke it again. The can am stresses the gear kolpin packages. There bolts keep snapping

@myslash09 2 года назад

Nice job

@Mainly-boy-outdoors Год назад

Nice machine!

@behrlock 2 года назад

Had a few different plows for various machines over the years, this one looks a lot lighter but maybe that’s a good thing as these machines generally squat from the weight as they’re not exactly sprung heavy like a tractor or non existent like a skid steer. Might give one of these a try

@LetDirtFly 2 года назад

You'll still get some squat. but it is fairly light for a plow.

@NilsKall 2 года назад

I plow with a 320, no problem at all.

@salt7379 Год назад

Had a KFI plow on my forman 500 but bought a newer foreman and was looking for a plow for that one.. considering this kind of plow.. thanks

@Rick58790 2 года назад

I'm not sure why you pushed snow towards your house. Does it melt and run away from the house? I would push it all in the trees across your driveway

@BeaverDaveECV 2 года назад

I just finished putting my plow together and did a few fine tuning. But I got mine at cabellas last week for 349.99 wish I saw your video first. But it may have gone up since your film.

@LetDirtFly 2 года назад

Everything has gone up unfortunately

@nobelsteed6440 8 месяцев назад

Thinking about putting on a 570 Ace. Looks like it's $400 now.

@markalton4610 Год назад

I have a ‘16 450. The instructions I got only have the 570, 850 and 1000. The 570 looks the closest but its not right. Did you drill holes and whatnot or am I just dumb over here?

@LetDirtFly Год назад

I didn't have to drill holes. one goes under the battery if i remember right.

@triedandtrue1820 Год назад

buy one tomorrow

@danieldean6976 2 года назад

In the video did you build your blade to 48 inches or 60 inches for your 450 ho

@LetDirtFly 2 года назад

@UBAYBE 2 года назад

So close to tje front wheel. Every hit a eock or stimp and then hit tour wheel?

@LetDirtFly 2 года назад

Because of the way it bolts on there isn't much room for it to move, but it is a little close.

@antoinechabot9277 Год назад

How long does it takes to remove it if you want to go for a ride or something like that? And reinstall it ?

@LetDirtFly Год назад

It's fast. Couple bolts. Once you know where it goes, it's way faster to put it back on.

@iananthony2578 Год назад

Get the tune from RVS on that 450. It will rip.

@kishbrowning Год назад

@LetDirtFly Год назад

I did get a good deal. It's been going up every year since i got it.

@atvseatexchange2176 3 года назад

How about the install? We just put one on a Suzuki last week and I've never seen so much grinding, cutting and modifying to make the Universal mount fit the chassis so the front wheels didn't hit it. First it was too far forward then it was behind the winch. Not to mention the hardware count topped off over 200 pieces. You guys seem to be honest about everything but I'm calling you on this one.

@sethharman3006 3 года назад

In the back of the manual to build it there is a section that shows the bracket to use for eack machine. The pictures were a little dark and a little confusing. It took me a few to realize where they wanted me to mount it to the frame. The only thing i had to grind was the bolt length. Sorry to hear it was a real bear for you to install.

@sethharman3006 3 года назад

Just looked in manual. Didnt see a install for a suzuki. That sucks. Koplin dropped the ball on that one.

@atvseatexchange2176 3 года назад

@@sethharman3006 Thanks for getting back to me. All the money the guy saved on the plow he spent on labor for the install. On the off season I buy as many used Moose plows as possible for resale in the fall. Moose is a big enough brand that they have mounts for just about everything. The customer can get his own mount for his particular machine and I'm out of the equation! I kept a 50 and a 55 inch for my 2 Brutes. Thanks again, looking forward to riding 3 wheelers in a month or so.

@logancharlier3386 2 года назад

I got 2016 brute force 750 same plow i got. Plow garbage. Directions got every fourwheeler brand except kawasaki brute force an suzuki. Save for money an go get warn provantage plow front mount.

@ChefD1985 Год назад

Call kolpin directly. Had trouble finding best way on my kodiak 700. Sent model specific pictures for using the universal mount. Made a substantial difference in stability and wobble of the plow

@giocannicampos6816 Год назад

Is this the universal and if yes do you think it can fit a 2022 polaris 850

@LetDirtFly Год назад

Yes it is universal. I would imagine that it would fit the 850.

@vincebella3328 2 года назад

You should have a electric blade to change the angle of your blade, so you don't have to get on and off the machine.

@LetDirtFly 2 года назад

Not an option on a budget plow. It would be nice though.
