89 Ovation with viper/srx features

[viper7mi]

I started this project back in April with the intent to have a cool sled for my daughter. The sled was a back yard find that I could not pass up. The sled needed allot of cleaning.

I would like to replace the skid and track but, I think that will be next years project. If I could get some cheap Viper stickers it would look cool.

Looks good - hope she puts alot of miles on it!

Me too, it should be a fun winter. I got her a Yamaha jacket a couple years ago.

The Ovation is almost complete. I need to add the trim on the windy.

I got a pair of SRX skis and cut out the middle of the saddle and painted black. I still need to shim the skis rubber mount.

I used a 03 Viper seat cover and had some extra vinyl added to the front and added 2" of extra foam to the top and some to the sides. The seat turned out perfect.

Sled looks great!, paint the body work yammie blue and she will be the envy of the neighborhood.

watch how dirty that clutch cover gets..

 

[viper7mi]

Next year I might paint her Yamaha blue and white.

The clutch cover will get dirty on the bottom. The top should stay white if kept clean???

The sled turned out pretty cool. I might add a 121 skid next year. What model Yamaha skid 121 would fit best? What track too!

I was told to go with a 2.52 pitch track and change the drivers but to what size?

Took the Ovation out again this weekend for a Family Fun Day. The sled started right up, rode great and never died. The wife and kids had fun. Mission Completed guys!

white side panels and a red or blue hood would look pretty cool, i'd say, man thats a nice ovation!

I found me a 89 Ovation for 300 bucks. It needs a front tie rod I guess should i do it.

Fun little sled. Starts on one pull.

I'm still working on mine. I almost bought a 94 on ebay last week in Dundee. The guy had a buy-it-now for $300 and it went for 270. Said it needed a track and the rear suspension. I don't know what was wrong with the rear suspension.
