While we're on the snowblower subject.........
I have a newer Honda HS 928 with electric start. It seems Honda doesn't even offer heated grips as an accessory. I haven't seen any.
On another note, my neighbor installed a pair of snowmobile bogie wheels on his snowblower auger housing in place of the skid shoes. He's had them on there for 3 seasons and they seem to work amazingly. No signs of wear on the wheels, no scratches on the new driveway, and super easy to maneuver. He is careful not to drag the front of the snowblower sideways when turning but otherwise swears by the change.
I have seen universal wheel/skid combos on amazon but I really like the bogie wheel idea. Think of the beating they have to withstand on a snowmobile skid.
Anyone done or seen anything similar?
Thanks and Happy New Year
