I'm glad you guys like it ....... Thank you!

I'm not sure everyone will like the color scheme but I wanted to try something different but stay with the 83/84 style.

Thanks Guys ...... As far as ride report, it is fast by my standards. I weighed both motors for comparison and this motor weighs
about 65lbs and the Kawi motor weighs about 62 lbs. Not a bad trade off ........

Paul you can come take the video ........ Not my cup of tea

Don ...... you can ride it any time!

Very - very nice work Joe!
So you opted not to go with the extra fuel tank? Just wondering about the fuel consumption, what kind of range your getting. Is that seat cushion off a Polaris or is it totally custom?

Not sure what extra fuel tank your talking about? I will have the sled up north this weekend to see what kind of range I can get out of it.
The seat was shown and talked about a few pages back. It is from the Doo and I customized it completely including a LED tail light.

Sweet!
Old sleds are hours of entertainment.... then you get to ride them for a little bit.
