Whenever I see a sled sitting stored outside in the elements a tear runs down my cheek much like the Indian Chief from the commercial in the 1970s does when he sees litter. My first sled was an Elan single.
I was driving my 1972 elan with my dad on his 1978 , both twins , we were driving in some mountains in Nova Scotia and we had an awesome time , even tho my 1972 cab that didn't have a scratch in it cracked , overall elans are the best
PowerModz Sr. and Jr., thanks for bringing back old memories. This is so reminiscent of watching my Pops, aka Dr. Jet, always fiddling with the carbs on his Sno*Jet Star Jet and my moms Astro Jet. Thanks again Gentlemen. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about him!
Got a sweet Elan SS ive been wanting to rebuild. Little brotber popped the original 294cc twin. All I have is the 249cc. Someday ill rebuild the power house 294cc.

Well you know what they say... It's not snowmobiling unless your coat smells like gas
Haha! I remember my mom making me take my snowmobile suit off in the shed because it smelled like 2-stroke in an overwhelming fashion.

We Love Elan snowmobiles!!! Best machines ever made.
Fantastic. Yeah love the new sleds... but watching that old iron going was cool stuff. I enjoy these kinda videos.
I came here to watch an old school skidoo start and all I got out of it is I had to go out on my own old school 91 cheetah for a rip bud!
Mission accomplished! You're welcome.
After 20 years in a box my elan engine 16 horsepower twin cylinder started on the second pull yeehaw
My little guys are both growing up looking through a yellow elan windshield 🤙🤙
That recoil sounds like a turkey
Now look up "turkey dubstep" and have yourself a laugh 😂😂
I've got a 77 Elan, she runs great and those things will most likely last a lifetime or more as you show them love and take care of them.
Ahhh the memories!! That was my very first sled I got from my uncle. It started my whole passion for snow machines!
Ove got old elen twin cylinder ive been restoring with my 7 year son, been a great project. We love watching your elen and rev videos!

If I put it inside it gets mad at me, it likes the outdoors and long walks in the park.
