So I picked up this bravo for the kids Christmas gift the other weekend but forgot to cover it up in the back of the truck and my oldest (4yrs old) spotted it out the window. He says "what's that red snowmobile dad?" And that's when I realized it's not so much of a Christmas gift suprise anymore. Anyways, the track is very good on it. Has some minor cracking but the lug height is like new. It also has a few cracks in the hood but it's not missing any pieces or vents. It needs a bit of work but I'm definitely not dumping money into this. I've ordered a new seat cover for $65 and will be getting a new windshield for $70. Other than that everything seems to function and work accordingly. I just figured why buy a kitty cat, then a 120, and then a bravo 250? I'll probably end up riding on it with him until he's able to drive on his own. His feet obviously won't be touching the running boards. Not a bad score for $550. I've seen some in worse condition for more! And next to mint ones fetching around $2k. So here's some pictures for now. Don't mind the mess under the hood.

Nice sled. Wish I had one. Years ago I had pick up a reasonably nice 250 Enticer for 80$. Drove it lots but got rid of it because of pulse carb problems, rotten exhaust etc... Still miss that little sled.

Nice sled!! My 22 year old little brother still has one he plays around on in the field. He runs side by side with us up till 50mph when were all playing in the fields..
 
Thanks! I'm hoping once I get the seat and windshield on I'll maybe find some time to clean under the hood and make it shine! I'd like to fix the cracks in the hood but not sure how to go about it so I'll probably just leave that alone for now. Keep my eyes open for a nicer hood!
 
It's cool your keeping the Bravo theme alive to this site, as it's really lacking.

My first snowmobile ride of last winter, (Witch inspired the purchase of my 700 Venture) was long track Bravo on my buddy's big a$$ property. I played with it for hours, giving my girlfriend and three other kids their first snowmobile rides. In between the passager rides I'd drive it like a nut, threw small vergin fields and tight forest trails. So much fun. Ya, they are great little sleds!

Thanks Vincent! I think there's a couple other guys with bravos on here, but your right there's not much here on them. I can't wait to go over it. Hopefully theres not much wrong with it. My buddies have all picked up bravos as well. It should be cool to ride them all together. I just really hope the kids take interest in it. I know my oldest son likes sledding, and I'm hoping my little girl will enjoy it too! It should provide many years of fun for them...
 
I put the new windshield on last night. Looks a lot better now, but I wish it was a smoke color instead. Oh well, good for the kids to see through anyways.

Looks better for sure. May I ask where you got your windshield from? Royal? My sled could use a new one but I was told to avoid the cheap Kimpex ones. Cobras are better but with taxes are 150$.
