1980 Liquifire

Post by DeereKid9 »

1980 Liquifire
I bought this in a package deal last week and cleaned them up a bit and checked them over for major defects. I always try and list the good with the bad on each sled.
The Bad on this sled is:
The console is destroyed
The skis are red with one being original and one aftermarket.
The intake boots are bad
Seat will need redone.
Missing the intake hose to the air box.
Missing a temp gauge.

The good:
125 psi on both cylinders with good spark
Track and suspension look great
No cracks in the hood that I can see.
Both handle bar blocks are good

I am trying to move this quick so I’m asking $500 for it. I am also listing the package mate to this, an 80 sportfire as well, so make me an offer on the pair. Both are good sleds.

The windshield is perfect as well but probably a sno-stuff as it laid over easily.

It's not fair!! :evil:
In Sweden this sled would be sold in 10 minutes for 950-1.000 dollars and a Liquifire in good condition would be sold even faster for the double amount of $

I WANT ONE :pray:

I can make it to where you're only 1 hour away if you and Bob can get together.
