Honda Foreman 450 vs. 16 Inch Snow Storm, ATV Snow Plow

Ride along as I plow a path to the wood pile with the Foreman. The 60" Moose plow makes the Foreman work hard as I battle 16" of freshly fallen snow. Crank up the volume and listen to the big one cylinder grunt.

Great rig! Thought I would share a hack with you all. If you pull in the reverse lever and place a zip tie on the bare cable behind the lever you will never have to mess with the lever again to put it in reverse. Just shift down past neutral. Just need to pay closer attention when downshifting because shifting into reverse while still rolling foreword= no bueno. Hope this helps. Did it to mine and don't miss messing with the levers one bit.

[@dylanbenker2043]

That's smart

[@kenh9508]

I did the same thing to my 250 big red.

[@jsavage8986]

I have a 2001 Honda foreman 450 with a 60 inch moose plow. It has so much power and is a great ATV. First snow is gonna be in 2 days, all I got to do is rewind my winch and I'm set! #November snow day!

[@ProjectKing]

Sounds great! Yes the 450’s have a lot of torque! Work well plowing snow! Have fun

[@shonuffnuff2705]

THIS is a 4 wheeler vs snow video! Awesome-awesome job (unlike a bunch of those 4 wheeler vs 1” of snow videos)! I am SOLD!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@ProjectKing]

Glad you enjoyed it. Worked great in fresh snow

[@fixedgearforlife]

I used to plow with a Polaris Sportsman 500. Watching your videos, the Foreman makes it look so easy, unlike the Sportsman 500. Foreman has more low end torque, and is able to get more of it's power to the wheels with the direct shaft drive to the straight axle.

[@ProjectKing]

+fixedgearforlife Yes the low end torque, low first gear and true geared transmission makes the difference. The Polaris uses a CVT which is hard for it to run a slow speeds.

[@eatshitful]

I have no idea why anyone would want to plow slow? I want to get it done and over with so i can find a warm place to work lol

[@Hi-qq7zy]

Those honda foremans are so freaking reliable

[@ClutchTFS]

Hell ya! I love my 06 fourtrax 400 it moves heavy, wet snow with a 48" quadrax blade no problem, really nice having the option for auto or ESP shifting

[@ProjectKing]

Good machines!

[@Anthony-bt2vo]

I have the same one would like to see your set up of your snow plow plz

[@MrBriansAmazingWorld]

Love plowing with my Honda 300. Goes until it loses traction. Great machines!

[@ProjectKing]

They are tough!

[@artsmith103]

Also have 2003 Foreman 450. Manuel says it's a 432cc. Unfortunately mine came with 48" plow. Highly recommend 55" blade. No need for the 60" load. I run v-bar chains on all wheels. Even with bad tires it plows up steep gravel driveways.

[@luv4SN]

Can you tell me exactly what I need to buy to have a plow that works like that? This is exactly what my husband wants, but I can't seem to figure out if the base is separate from the plow itself? He wants a moveable base like that.

[@ProjectKing]

Hello, it’s a 60” plow.... that’s mounted to a frame plate. So you need the plow kit. And the frame plate (belly pan). The belly pan is model specific. Moose makes the pans for lots of different ATV models.... for example mine is for 2001 to 2004 Honda Forman 450. I hope that makes sense. I need to do a video showing the plow in detail. Also of course you will need a winch or manual lever. I like the winch.

[@NelsonCreekCustoms]

Nothing makes me feel better than a foreman put to work wish I had one I love them Honda

[@ProjectKing]

+EaZier Clutch Yeah they sound really good when under load. They really bark. (0:

[@gregjohnson8705]

What year is your Foreman? I have a 1989 that still runs great! Great video.

[@ProjectKing]

It’s a 2003! Glad you liked the video! They are tough machines

[@dannywhitlock8309]

Great video !!! I have always liked Honda Foreman 4 wheelers !!! It's been in the high 60,s here in Ga. !!!!

[@ProjectKing]

No snow in GA then! (0: Yeah the Foremans are nice.

[@RalphHamilton]

I have a Honda 400 Foreman that I just put a Moose Plow on and I'm thrilled with it. It works great. I also have a backhoe that fits on bike that works pretty good. Honda Foremans are great little work horses. Next I think I'm going to put a cab and mirrors on it. Good video...Cheers :)

[@amazonbox1115]

thinking about getting a cheap atv to snowplow my whole cul-de-sac since they dont really plow ours. Would this be good if i get some 50pound gravel packs on concrete?

[@ProjectKing]

Should do okay on fresh snow

[@mattwest6615]

you must take a lot of time to get to all of the coments I really appreciate it you are the best

[@ProjectKing]

+Matt West Thank you Matt for the kind words! I try to respond if I can! (0:

[@shannonmccall8701]

I got a 800 sportsman with 60 inch plow I do 12 driveways with it unbelievable torque

[@ProjectKing]

They work great!

[@nathanduckeorth806]

Have a 16 rancher I plow with its a beast also! Go Honda!

[@ProjectKing]

That’s great! Yeah they can really plow some snow!

[@TerrapinCreations666]

I'm trying like mad to get one of these. So expensive!

[@ProjectKing]

Yes new ones are super expensive. Mine was bought used. Look around for a gently used Honda. They are pretty reliable. Not perfect but pretty darn good. Bought plow new.

[@TerrapinCreations666]

@@ProjectKing I may just look into financing with a few grand down.

[@travisstromness4858]

Maybe it somewhere in the comments, but before I pay, I'm looking at a pile.of vids, what's your driveway base, I'm all gravel, curious what you're pushing on. Thanks

[@ProjectKing]

I’m plowing on concrete

[@PurpleCollarLife]

We plow on gravel. It does do some "gravel displacement", but it's not horrible to do cleanup in the spring. Great question!

[@kreigdernier9553]

Quad plowing for driveway is great bit if you have a big turn around gallery to push out i find it time consuming. No less fun though

[@ProjectKing]

Yes the turn around is tricky. If you put into 4wd you can power slide at end of run. More fun!

[@JustforFun-ki6fk]

You need tracks on that Honda!

[@ProjectKing]

It would be unstoppable!

[@jacobwilliams5702]

Nah you got a Honda

[@viakion2125]

waiting for starter brushes for mine

[@ProjectKing]

I had to do those as well.

[@vincebella3328]

Don't they make a hydraulic motor to turn the blade left or right so you can turn it while your moving?.

[@ProjectKing]

I’m not aware of one with this type plow.

[@nikogauna3733]

I was wondering about these quads. I am looking to start a snow removal company and was looking into a few other atvs, everything I've read so far is leaning me towards getting a Honda

[@ProjectKing]

They are tough machines!

[@gsfbffxpdhhdf7043]

Get a belt drive can am 😂😂😂😂

[@roccity5859]

Niko Gauna, lol dude do not waste your money on this kind of set up for a business. Look into Ventrac, you’ll thank me!

[@mxshee4504]

hey buddy great video!

[@ProjectKing]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jamessmith4343]

I got o 03 honda rancher 350 that i plow snow with there pretty tough machines I mean i like them

[@redneck400m3]

Awesome video! I was nervous about my 01 sportsman 500 pushing the 60 inch i just bought...not tryin to be a dick but if that honda on bald tires did that good with a 60 my polaris with new zillas and more power shoujd do just fine.

[@ProjectKing]

Yes should do okay. Run it in low range and get it moving so your belt engages and doesn’t slip. Should do fine. If you are in heavy wet snow you can just take smaller bites. Good luck and thanks for the comments.

[@Smittyschannel]

you have the plow angled the wrong way, & driving on the wrong side going back to the wood pile

[@ProjectKing]

Thank you for the info! (0:

[@wumply1036]

Do you think a honda recon250 2wd can plow snow

[@nathanduckeorth806]

Gonna want to put chains on it if it's just 2wd!!!

[@ProjectKing]

Yes will need chains and ballast on rear rack. I carry 100 lbs of gravel on mine.

[@masso172]

i miss my honda

[@ProjectKing]

They are really nice machines. Not the fastest or smoothest riding... But I dare say the toughest! I bought mine used a little over a year ago with 150 hours on it. It's already one of my prized possessions.

[@masso172]

ProjectKing I used to go mud riding on my 450 and it never let me down, every time I got stuck i'd kick in 4WD and out it went. I loved that quad.

[@ProjectKing]

Yeah they are amazing! Mine has nearly worn out tires and will go ANYWHERE! They are like a mountain goat with an engine. Lol

[@hkkjsince2182]

+ProjectKing you earn a sub for replying to your fans

[@amloobrador3519]

masso172 buy you one

[@CodyJohnstonbaugh]

Man I'd love to find myself a little 350 Rancher with a plow........

[@ProjectKing]

+Cody Johnstonbaugh They do real well with a plow as well. Probably a 50" wide plow would be about perfect.

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

I have a arctic cat 350 4x4 that machine has a higher towing rating then the 1000cc cats, 54" eagle plow works great.

[@Deerector]

A 60” on a 450. Oh man. I wouldn’t put that kinda stress on the machine. I got a sportsman 1000 and I got a 60 on that. Even the thousand I was thinking maybe stay with a 55 but I didn’t.

[@ProjectKing]

+Deerector 60" works great. Keeps the tires out of the snow bank when plowing. 450 Foreman has serious low end grunt with geared trans. I would not equip a CVT machine with a big plow. Standing start is hard on the CVT belt.

[@Deerector]

ProjectKing wow. That’s great man. Keep the vids coming

[@ProjectKing]

Deerector I forgot to mention a 55" would be a better fit for a midsize ATV like mine. Just wanted to clarify that.

[@RPMusicInc]

Does it have to be fresh nar nar?

[@ProjectKing]

Yeah won't plow hard pack

[@michaelbradley8508]

What type of transmission is in your unit

[@ProjectKing]

It is manual transmission with push button shift

[@nicholassanzari9603]

Only useful on flat land,what ya got for us mountain roaders

[@ProjectKing]

Plow going down hill.

[@barbararutherford6932]

Project king is your 4 wheeler for sale

[@ProjectKing]

+Barbara Rutherford No ma'am it's not currently for sale.

[@ethanjean7003]

You should probably let er warm up a bit before giving it the beans and diving strait into the snow even though you can treat a foreman like shit and itll keep going

[@ProjectKing]

Yes that’s a good point! Thanks for the comments

[@BracePredatorizing]

I have the same one! :)

[@ProjectKing]

Cool! You have a plow too?

[@matthewluchsinger2462]

Should let it at least warm up. Damn

[@ProjectKing]

Send it! LOL

[@keatonjackson9574]

Are you Canadian

[@ProjectKing]

no

[@rogerl8488]

What brand is that?

[@ProjectKing]

Honda Foreman 450 ES with a Moose 60" Plow... lifted with a SuperWinch

[@rogerl8488]

ProjectKing so is this a easy hook an unhook plow? Meaning to put on an take off to store.. thank u . I have a 1500 ft drive way lol got snow this weekend lol

[@ProjectKing]

Yes two pins and a winch hook and it’s off. Can take it off in less than a minute

[@jasony724]

Polaris made in USA, crappy lazy workers equals crappy machines. I’m sold on the Honda foreman.

[@ProjectKing]

My Foreman was made in USA. (0: I have a Polaris Ranger that was made in Mexico. It’s been a good machine too.

[@tyhart7591]

tell me again how a 450 is a "big" single cylinder

[@ProjectKing]

+ty hart Some bikes are 600 cc 4 cylinders. So a 450 cc engine is a big single cylinder.

[@tyhart7591]

ProjectKing polaris makes the 450 as their smallest model as does can am also polaris makes the 570 which is a single and yamaha makes the 708 single in about everything

[@ProjectKing]

+ty hart That is now. Back in 2003 when the Foreman was made it was a big engine. Times change.

[@SmugMrSmitty]

Plows to the wood pile, and then coming out pushes all the snow into the cleared path....🙄👎🤣
