Hey everyone, I'll try my hand at this build thread thing! I bought my dream sled last year (so I thought ). The sled looked okay in pictures and I only seen a few things I wanted to change until I got my hands on it. Then all hell broke loose. I know many of you have seen this sled and several of you have owned it. It was a great concept and probably was originally a very nice build. But someone just "let it go" and that's when I got it. Broken motor mounts and torque damper, no oil in chain case due to stripped bolts, the ez ryde was falling apart, the plastics were butchered, the tunnel was Swiss cheese, steering post was bent, fuel system had a breech which wouldn't allow it to start for about 8 pulls. And many other small things I have ran into. So I decided to take on another full build since it's been a few years.
It was however a good start, it had a 700cfi turbo, and an ez ryde and I scored some new plastics cheap. So I put all the plastics on and did some work on the fuel system and took off the bov, that's when I found the broken motor mounts on the maiden voyage. So I proceeded to tear her down.
First picture is the sled when I bought it. I have since decided to do a full build that will turn heads (since I own a powder coating company) and perform in the trees and deep pow. I have some more pictures and details of progress coming soon.
