Thanks!!I like the old Honda Foretrax pulling the trailer still working!
When I post picts of me doing that on some sites, I'm told it doesn't work! It's waaaay too dangerous and much harder to do it that way! That I'm full of BS! lolThis is like THE way to do wood, IMO! Load it with the forks on the tractor, drag it home, cut it up on the trailer, then roll it off the trailer right onto the splitter. No bending over the splitter on the ground, no lifting wood up onto the splitter, etc.
Couple more ...
And the fun stuff ...
I'll be right back with today's load .... so ...
Keep on ... Runnin' Loads !!
It's a Canadian sold 1990 TRX 350D, still the same as the older 86 - 89 Foremans just only sold in Canada after 89 till 91. Ya it's a tank !! It'll pull what ever you can get enough traction to pull with it's monster 18 HP. I actually kinda feel bad for what I do to it ... but then it makes me walk funny for a day or two as my spine, knee's and shoulders recover from the ride we took across a mountain and back ... sooo I call it even !!
In my opinion it is the second toughest bike you can buy, only bested by a Honda 300 with a 350D rear diff cause the 300's were weak. With the 300 you get a faster, lighter bike, better gear choices and IFS so it's way smoother ... and I am looking for one that's not 3K around here. Some of the guys I ride with ride me hard when I bring out the Honda, then I stay with em all day, some time riding through what they couldn't and pulling them after ... and I still get told I'm riding a lawn mower ... SMH
The guy I bought it from figured he'd ripped me off but I had heard how tough they were and said, I'll run it till I kill it ... still going and I may treat it to front disk brake upgrade this year.
Old pic of it on 27's and fresh Gold painted rims, stacked with gear and fuel for 2 days ride into no where.

Did I mention it floats?
Keep on .... Runnin' Loads !!
It absolutely works great! I suppose it could be a bit more dangerous, given that the trailer weighs more than double what my 5*8 does when full, but then, it's also worth at least 2 trips, so there's that. We didn't his last year as well, and it works great. Also works great when there isn't a tractor around and you just tilt the traiker and winch the 18' dogs up.When I post picts of me doing that on some sites, I'm told it doesn't work! It's waaaay too dangerous and much harder to do it that way! That I'm full of BS! lol
BUT, I keep on keeping on! It works VERY good!

What model Deutz is that when I was a kid my grandfather had a sawmill and dairy farm that were both powered by a pair of 8006’s and a 4506 4x4 with high lift.I load all I can get on,
pull it home,
and get after it with the splitter,
