    I'm having a time understanding your photos? What model Gator do you have? Am I only seeing one front wheel and motorcycle handle bars?

    Wow, that looks really interesting. How well does it handle when driving around? I'm curious how well the one front wheel can make the four in back turn.

    it can be tuff to turn sometimes, but i find if i let off the throttle a little the front tire grabs more when turning. but it is a blast to drive.! goes through or over just about everything i tried. It doesnt have all the bells and whistles the new ones have. but it has character ! and for the record i have tried to roll it over and you really have to try hard to make roll over. i can not wait to see what it does in snow though. Oh yeah, when you are in 2 wheel drive only the left tires are drive tires.it is a bit harder to steer when in 4 wheel drive.

    After your post & pictures I found some videos online of people driving them around. That looks like a fun Gator and more stable than the old three wheeled golf carts.
