  • Hi everyone, welcome back I know it’s been a minute since the last upload. In today’s video we will be going through the collection again and showing what’s staying and what’s leaving. I’ll also talk about why I haven’t been able to upload and work on sleds due to work and such.
    I hope you enjoy the video and I hope to make more soon! #polaris #yamaha #articcat

    A lot of useful stuff there. That's the kind of things we used to do back in the 80's with our shop. We would strip down the machines that couldn't be fixed and put the parts on shelves. The rest went off to scrap.
    On a different note: I recently investigated a coolant leak on my '88 Inviter. What I found was quite ...interesting. The video shows that it was worse than I thought. Sooooo, now I am on a search for parts. If I can't locate parts I might take the engine off and stick a fanner in there.

      Parts are always nice. I rather see me keeps some parts and shoo the chassis away than just the entire sled get scrapped.
      And that sucks about the inviter but a fan motor would definitely wake that sled up a bit!

      @@BraidenSlagle When you are in this business, it never hurts to have parts around. The sad truth is that sometimes a sled just can't be fixed. That's when you take everything useful off and scrap the rest. Hate seeing vintage machines go that way, but as they say, "ya can't save 'em all." Wish we could though.
      Yeah, I am afraid a couple of parts for that water pump are going to be unobtainium. I still have several months before snow flies (IF it flies this year) to try and locate them. Will just have to see what happens over the next few months.

    Love that 96 xcr 440. it is an sp? easy way to check, if trailing arms go all the way back and even with the belly pan it is not an sp. sp had magura brake also. some had a magnesium chain case too

      @BraidenSlagle  24 дня назад +1

      Sure is. It’s a race sled. Raced in the 90s in snowcross just trying to figure out what races. Also the driver lives in the same town as me and is willing to come take a look at it sometime

      awesome! I never even looked at the 440s when they were new. I had a 97 xc 440 few years ago, wich is basically a 96 xcr sp they run hard for a 440 and can turn. Take a look at the chain case, the magnesium ones i have seen look a bit darker that the aluminum version.

    Dude you got a fkn junkyard in the middle of the city I'm sure your neighbors love you 😂😂😂

      @BraidenSlagle  Месяц назад +1

      It’s not a junkyard. I’ve made triple than I’ve paid for for anything. And my family has raced dirt tracks for 30 years. I got people who say nice words and talk to me about them when they come by. Sorry your neighbors don’t like your sleds. I have many people who like them and don’t care to see them. Better have a hobby than drugs
