Thank you all, your very kind. I'm a little lax about getting back about some comments so here goes. One it's not missing or lean, it was the mic on my camera breaking down, the seat is original as is the entire sled, when I removed the seat to polish the tunnel there was a piece of original plastic that protected it in shipping, I have that at home, the skis are also original. The motor is a 440cc liquid cooled twin. They say it had 100 HP and weighed 300 LBS, now for next winter WOT!

Thanks All,

My main effort now is to get a rolling video but will have to find an open area that has no cops! It's really loud when your on it. I hope when I get back we can do this. At 300lbs and 100hp I'd think it should stay up with the new sleds if not go by, maybe will be able to check that box off later to. Thanks.

Sick Sled, I'd like to say one of the nicest machines for looks and sound. When you hit it, around 3:30 the chills went right up my back. Awesome.

@cobaltme Im thinking all the fans of this sled would like to see a few test runs of this sleds performance. If you need a test pilot i will volunteer free of charge.
