Nice, we had about '71 I think. More of a dramatic behive front end. Very top heavy when turning hard, so dad made some 12guage steel 4" long plates to spread the skis outboard more. Made a big difference when turning.

I too have spreader plates. But don't have them on. Keeping close to stock as possible. Didn't have black covering for seat so used what I had. Anybody have a spare trunk? B)

I had a '72 sorta like that, Rotax 440, used to pull my ice fishing essentials with it. Got to be an expert on changing burned pistons. Not worth a crap on the trails unless they were really packed.

my first ride was on a 69 or 70 skidoo. we we're more on the ground than upright very unstable machine with 2 riders. probably didn't help that we were both smashed returning home from a bar thru the woods at 2 oclock in the morning. my later harley davidson and polaris were fun machines. ron

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.“
