Picked it up last night. Still enough snow in the yard to put a few miles on it before putting it away......Might get it back out depending on the upcoming rain. Dont know if its the 144" Hartman ext/relocation, 1 3/4 camoplast,Ohlins, powder pros or if all these Vipers ride this sweet! E start is AWESOME! Snow is pretty well knee deep in the yard with random snowbanks to play on. Just eats up the bumps! Girlfreind took it for a few laps herself...already claiming it as HERS!

Just need to find/figure out rear cooler to swap out that current cross over tube. I have at least 1 from a SRX that from what I have read will need inlet/outlet rotated. Or find one from a mtn viper.
 
Yeah. He had an add in Barter looking to trade for a car/S10 truck that said "real cheap for cash". No phone # just e mail. Waited usually 2-3 days for each responce, sent my cell number in every E-mail. After a week and a half made it over there (15 minutes late) and he wasnt there and it took him 20-25 minutes to get there. Story went from his riding buddy was killed to a lady he snowplows their driveway was killed snowmobiling as well as sled was at his soon to be X wives house. Said he had just paid way to much for it in January from a yamaha nut and then snow never really came in oscoda. That he took it out on cedar lake once. Checked compression and checked it over as well as I could. I could still smell a hint of fogging oil when he fired it up. I know some vipers have their own set of issue's but in the end I could not buy the parts to go 144" on my 01 srx 700 for what I bought this sled for.
 
My intentions were either to use 144" stuff on my srx or put the girlfreind on it. Maybe even put the srx stuff back under viper and GF ride it. After riding it not sure now...might just have another for ME to ride. If anything its to quiet, has good power and handles really well. This is the first 144" I have ever rode and am quite impressed. Maybe still source the parts for srx and have a pair of 144"s.....we will see!

Thats what im doing to my viper, going to a 144 this summer. Im going to put a mono in mine though. Cant wait to start that project.
 
Started going threw the box of parts that came with sled. Owners manual,service manaul. All the stock skid bracketery,drivers,wheels. Clutch tunning rivets, shims for secondary. Journal of everything (and when) done to sled. Receipts $1750 hartman, $425 for E start Hackers, $375 for SLP powder pros. Original owner is in Fairveiw MI, guy I bought it from never registered it during the 3 months he owned it.
