And coming from someone in Fargo, there are very few of the prototypes around and even less of any running machines. that is definately rare to see!

I'll get some pics posted of it shortly, I haven't unloaded anything from this past weekend yet.
I did get some helmet video of a little trail ride I took on it too.
I bought the sled about a year and a half ago, and haven't ridden it until this past weekend. It's only got about 250 miles on it, and I'm sorting out some electrical and fuel issues with it now. It's been sitting most of it's life, and I've had to go through the carbs to get it running, but it's still starving for fuel during acceleration and any time I hold it wide open for more than 5 seconds or so.
I do have enough new parts in boxes to build 3 more of them, minus the electrical, running gear, shocks and tracks, but have all the suspension components, wheels, chassis, body panels, etc.. Been thinking about assembling one with a boosted Nytro motor in it if I can figure out how to make it fit/work.
It's definitely a unique sled, and gets alot of attention, but it's like owning a DeLorean. Different and rare, but full of quirks and "personality" issues. Reliability wasn't a strong point with these things, and anyone whos studied the brand will tell you these guys were on to something cool, but spent too much money tooling up for production and should've spent more time testing.
Maybe I'll try to put a thread together sharing some pics etc of it, cause it is a fun sled to play with and has a somewhat interesting history too.

They very interesting sleds I remember back in the late 90's seeing them at the NOVI Mi snow show. And didnt they have a 4stroke also with the exhaust exiting the rear like are yamaha's. like to see some pic's of the cool rear skid.

Thanks for the video. Should bring it to a TY RIDE so we can dream of what could have been.
