1980 Sportfire

Post by DeereKid9 »

1980 Sportfire
Last week I bought a package deal with this pretty nice Sportfire in it. I don’t need it or have time/space to keep it. I am going to list the bad along with the good points on this sled.
The bad:
Will need a new kill switch
Track is usable but I can’t lie, will need replaced before to long.
3300 miles registered.
Previous owner stated it might need a CDI, but I got good spark. Maybe issues when warm?
Seat will need redone
Skis are red but look to be correct.
Winshield

The good:
Motor is free with 130psi both sides and good spark (see above though)
All is there under the hood
Console is perfect
Suspension is pretty nice
Really a pretty straight sled.
Both handle bar blocks are really nice.

I am asking $400 but I’m also selling its package deal mate, an 80 Liquifire too so I would make a package deal as well.
Ask any questions you may have.
Thanks,

Bob Amber
