Blew the motor on my viper, the bearing on the crankshaft of the middle rod failed which resulted in there being cracks in the bottom and top half of the case. The middle Cly is scored but not beyond repair I think, along with the middle cyl. being garbage. I don't know if anything else is wrong with the crankshaft besides the middle bearing being destroyed.

The sled itself I think had somewhere around 4000 miles, but obviously I will never know now since I can't start it and see. The ski's are in pretty good shape, the suspension is complete in good order besides some minimal rust on the trailing arms and such. The rear skid is in decent shape as well, I belive a couple of the bearings in the idler's are beginning to get sloppy and sliders were new halfway through my, maybe 300 mile riding year this past winter.

The tunnel is in good shape, one minor bend in the flimsy part of the sheet metal at the very end of the sled (nothing serious). The seat is perfect with no rips. The track is pertty beat up. It has 144 studs (I think) but I thought I counted around 5 being pulled out leaving holes. Hood is in good shape with one 2 inch long scrape on the front by the bumper.

Any questions let me know, I gotta decide if I should part this out or if anyone would be interested in how it sits. I just bought a 2004 RX-1 as my new toy.

I can take pics if anyone wants to see.
 

Mr. Viper what is the sled worth how it sits? I have a figure in my head but what would you estimate as a fair price?

Yeah I thought 4000 was way to low.
