That was a good deal on that sled sir! Sled has to have been rejetted to a bigger size when you put a dg pipe on. so currently. Its running rich! change the jets and it should stop fouling plugs and run better. Rejet to stock. The specs should be under the hood on a sticker or on the air box. Good luck!
@rascles because they're old and rusting and could pull through the track. if part of the stud that's on the inside of the track cracks off cause of the rust, the stud won't have as much support and could put too much pressure on a small area the track, pull out, and make a nice tear. that's what i was told anyway and it makes sense to me, plus i don't need studs cause i just ride in powder. of course, all this only has a slight chance of actually happening but i'd rather just make sure it won't
@quincee33 yeah it's just cause of the distinct wedge shape the front end has. i'm not sure exactly what years but the first indy was made in 1980 and looked similar to mine. i believe the last wedge indy is the 97 xcr 700 and xlt 600 but models such as the 500 changed shape a few years earlier
@PowerRider16 ya really nice lookin sleds...polaris was ahead of the game with their IFS...not too mention they were the king of the triple's back then....great sleds.... not sure why they didn't have Temperature gages for their liquid cooleds....i know afew guys that had their engines seize....i think the red light came on too late.
@PolarisIndyPower you can buy them on ebay. i'm actually making my own though. lots of screen kit's don't cover those vents on the side which is kinda lame so that's one reason i'm making my own.
Nice sled man. I just sold my 00 700 laris and got a 2005 rev for $2100. I still like laris better and all, but a rev for $2100 is an amazing deal i couldn't pass up. I just posted a vid on it. Think Snow
paint the hood scoop grates blue, get handle bar risers, or higher handle bars, should do an xtra 10 skid w/ fox shocks , and you could paint the low pro windshield black from the inside, or mettalic blue, but from the inside and it will look good
Best thing to put on there is some handlebars from a polaris edge! They are wider and more strait and give you way better control. I had them on my 1990 Indy 500 SKS and they rocked! Also had the edge throttle handle or w.e and a left side hook plus the 2 inch riser and its like a whole different sled!

@PowerRider16 why are the called wedge indy's? is that from the look of the cowl? is it a specific year or years?
