The mechanics in my battalion got moved out to TQ when we were deployed. I never got to really hang out with them alot. Well today I got to go to the motor pool and check out this "badass" chopper they have always talked about. They made this in there free time in Iraq. It is made out of a John Deere gator. They hacked up a gator and made this masterpeice. It truely is a work of art. It runs and all. I am going to link back up with them friday and ride it and get some video.

SORRY FOR THE CELL PHONE PICS!

Is it a single gear deal or is there a way to change gears? I don't see a clutch or anything, and I know nothing about how Gators work.

I do know I see boost lol

As the rpms get going the band/cvt gets narrower which allows it to be geared lower. Make since? Its like the old school go karts that were belt driven.
