About a year and a half ago I saw an ad on craigslist for a 92 Exciter and I was going to go pick it up on the weekend, but I told my buddy about it and he went and snagged it from under me later that day. At first I was kind of pissed at him, then that subsided when I thought about what his wife was gonna say when she noticed yet another project in the shop. lol It was mine about a month after that and I didnt have to drive 90mi to get it!! So it worked out.
Im am very curious about the origins of this sled because its heavily modded and my buddy has since lost his bill of sale, so heres what it is.
Its a 1992 red Ex570 with an Arctic Cat Wild Cat 700 in it. It came from the Chicago area and the guy said his college auto shop instructor built it.
Along with the 700 it has very nicely made custom pipes, wide kit with the fiberglass panels, hydralic brakes (wilwood master, kelsey hays caliper), Vmax 4 aluminum skiis, EGT's,I think a vmax4 rear skid with Olins shocks and an arctic cat secondary that was machined to work on a yami jackshaft.
I had a water leak and when i tore down the motor I found the crank was lightend. Possibly Hooper?? Stock cylinders tho.
Im guessing this sled had dyno time by the "Midwest Dyno" stickers that were under the hood. wouldnt surprise me.
So now the sled is getting a full resto because the last owner left it out side and needs some TLC. Its kind of funny because the ad said "Garage Kept". Yet when my buddy picked it up there was weeds three feet tall around it!! LOL Im sure Im not the only one who has expiriened that!!
Im going to see if my buddy still has the pics from when he picked it up and post them, because now its in pieces waiting for warmer weather.
Its just kind of a neat sled and thought I would see If anyone would know more about it.
