Re: 1976 Massey 340 Cyclone
I guess it would depend on what size header it has on it & if it has a corn head with it??

Re: 1976 Massey 340 Cyclone

Re: 1976 Massey 340 Cyclone
I hear they only had production of 750 Cyclones for 1976? Are they a sled that will hard to find parts for? It is a very unique looking sled that is complete but in ruff shape overall. What are the values of these sled restored vs original?

Re: 1976 Massey 340 Cyclone
oh, come on. There was a 340 and a 440 on eBay last winter went really high. I have been chasing a 440 triple around for a year or so. Best of luck, what next an interceptor?

Re: 1976 Massey 340 Cyclone
Dave, it's easily worth the hundred. Just a question does it have Marauder in the lower right corner of the hood?

Re: 1976 Massey 340 Cyclone
I can't tell in the pictures they are not that good Scott. I will know more tomorrow when I see it in person. As for the Inteceptor my neighbour has two for sale right now for $50 obo so I might go look at them.

Re: 1976 Massey 340 Cyclone
I have seen basket case sleds go for $300 wheather they said Brut, Brute or Massey on them.
Most parts interchange from 72-76. Seats changed a little and the placement of the hood vents. Later models used Mikuni rather than Walbros.
While the twins had lower production numbers than the triples, they are worth less.
In MN and WI there seam to be a lot of parts around. Can't say about CA.

Dave, Are you going to start a sled salvage yard there? if you said 2 Kawi Interceptors for $50.00 each I would think you should be buying them..

Re: 1976 Massey 340 Cyclone
Kenny, no salvage yard the wife won't allow it! 
As for the Interceptors I'm just teasing Scott. 
The deal for the Massey is still in the works. I went to look at it and it is in bad shape! Outside uncovered for 4 years. I made him an offer but he said no the price is firm. So I left and told him to call if he changed his mind.
