78' Cyclone F/S with Cross Country Updates

Post by 427cobra »

Well Ive been debating this for awhile. But, Ive decided to sell my 78' Cyclone. I want to start my next Deere project so one has to go....

Ive been through the entire sled with LOTS of updates and imporvements. It does have a 440 engine with dual carbs. Custom CC bars with reinfoced skis and suspension.

I started with two 78' Cyclones and ended with one.

I used the nicer of the two and assembled one good runner.

Upgrades include:

- 80 LF chain case
- CC handle bars
- KH brakes
- Dual carb set up
- Star studs in the track
- LED tail light
- Soft oil caddy
- Reinforced skis
- 4"carbides
- Reinforced Suspension
- Tether switch

I rebuilt the 440 motor which is in the sled. I rebuilt both clutches and installed the Sportfire Helix in the secondary and I am running stock 340 gears in the case.

I cut down the windshield and painted it black. I have a stock clear windshield that will go with it. It has current IL registration.

Im asking $900.

Sled is in Waterloo IA.

I would be interested in working out a trade for a 80 or 81 LF.

Thanks
Eric

Wow!! What a bargain!!! Individual parts alone are worth the price of the entire sled.

I am planning on attending the Douglas show tomorrow.

I could bring the sled there if that helps with delivery....
