Worlds First AWD Snowbike?!

What do you guys think of this? Apparently you'll be able to have a front brake with this setup, that could be cool.

Could be cool. The drive works and holds up on dirt bikes. Hard to guess what the feel/performance is without trying it I suppose.

Yamaha has their own system we don't see in the US.

Just looks like more stuff to break. Don't understand the need for a front brake?
What happens if you bounce that front drive off a tree or stump?

Exactly, I deleted my rear brake mid last year. no point in it, just ride like you're snowboarding.

Christini builds quality $hit. Just not for everyone. I found it interesting how they mention military applications. Been a lot of issues in the sand, especially when it's soaked in oil. If they get that contract they won't need us to buy em! $$$$!
