Ya, I figured the invader was too. Cleaned the carb and she runs pretty dang good. I've had it an indicated 68mph. Got a 440 Invader parts sled for free too!

Rich,

You bought Deanos' sleds? I think you got a nice deal on that package if it was you. I will be putting the finishing touches on my Interceptor 550 in the next few weeks. I'm hoping to have it ready to display at Waconia. If not, there is always next year.

Rich,
It's a disease. You can't cure it by selling sleds. If you sell 5 you will buy 6, it never stops. In order to fight this disease you need to give a few of your sleds away, not sell them. Then you won't have any extra money to buy more. I will do what ever it takes to help you with this problem, even if it means taking a few sleds off your hands. :lol: Let me know if you reeeaaaly want some help....I can be there this weekend.

Rich,

601 Interceptors out there. I talked to Dean a couple of years ago about the slide carbs. If you ever have the chance, let me know what carbs he has on the sled and the jetting. It seems that the boys at Kawasakitrax run 38's on these sleds and you use a Polaris Indy 500 throttle cable that hooks up to the carbs and oil injection. I have a set of 38's in a box just waiting. In the meantime, I just went through the butterfly carbs on mine. You are right on the price. They don't come cheap. Mine was a pretty nice example with 800 actual miles on it but it still needed a good workover and I paid over $2000 for it. Additionally, the parts don't come easy or cheap for these sleds either. I think for what you paid for that package, including a nice Interceptor, you got one hell of a deal, I think you are aware that.

Rich, Ck the LTD & see if it has 530 cyl.'s on it, a lot of guys switched the bath tube LTD's over to the 530 cyl.'s Heads & pistons..
You didn't get any Invader LTD 4/6 cylinder with that bunch of Kawi stuff did you?? I could use a pair in any condition..
Oh yea the parts came today & yours went out early this morning..
