The SnowCruiser was a bear to pull over, the Rupp Magnum was the coldest to ride (no windshield), had to put a new clutch on all three El tigre's, put nothing but gas & oil in all of the Yamies. Fondest memory, almost pissing myself the first ride on the GP 396.

Sleds Sold ? ? ?

Since when can you sell a sled.

I always thought that once you buy them you need to keep them forever.

 

[bluemonster1]

If you can't sell them,simply run them into the river or lake and let them sink.lol

[rx1jim]

I have owned several junk sleds until I saw the light in 1990 and bought my first Yamaha sled. Here is my list:
1990 Exciter, sold it after 7000 miles
1993 Exciter II, bought it for my sons to ride, still have it
1994 VMax-4, 10,000 miles, perfect condition, still have it
2000 SRX, 13,000 miles, still have it, the best sled ever made
2000 SRX, bought it used 2 years ago, currently being restored to perfect condition
2003 RX1, 7000 miles, made a lot of mods to get it where I love it.

Gade is replacing the 2001 SRX 700. Want to play more in the fluffy stuff.

I'm back down to 5 sleds:
