WICKED COOL SLED, SHE'S IN KILLER SHAPE FOR THE AGE FER-SHER... WE HAD AN OLE AUTO SKI WHEN I WAS YOUNGER. MY DAD GOT IT ON A TRADE FOR 2 SNOW TIRES. WE RAN-ER 3 YEARS TILL SHE DISINTGRATED. MY BROTHER LIVES IN WOLFBORROW. HE HELPED RUN THE BRANCH LINE. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU REMEMBER THE OLE STEAM ENGINE/ TOURIST RAILROAD THAT USE TO BE THERE... SHOWIN' MY AGE A LITTLE, I GUESS. I JUST SUBBED, LOOKIN' FORWARD TO THE NEXT VIDEO. IN THE MEANTIME I'LL BE CHECKIN' OUT SOME OF THE OLDER ONES... PEACE, FROM CREEL CHIHUAHUA, MEXICO...
I would leave it as as survivor. buff it out and leave it. its to nice to mess with. As for the clutch I would shim it up some. You do need some float for the brakes but not that much. They do it for pad ware. That's a really cool sled. I love the oddball sleds that are not at every show.
According to the Winds guys the 100 mph sled used a modified 650 JLO opposed twin. The replica sled they built a few years ago used the mighty 793 Hirth triple that had modern tuned pipes and carbs and porting. With that stacked deck getting 100 was pretty much a done deal. Think stuffing an old school hemi into a kids sled. I guess finding a mint mod 650 jlo twin is impossible today. 😉
