Yes Joe,that machine had a very rough life It belonged to a family friend but we were allowed to ride it The wonder wheels killed it ,no suspension running in the fields all summer broke a lot of parts Being a 640 it had no traction,spinning constantly He ended up putting a lawnmower turf tire on it and it helped a bit. It was traded in on a 440 Silver Bullet when they came out but there wasn't much left of it. I think I must have been doing my Duane Eck (he was my hero back then)pose in this picture...lol

Great photo of the kids ! Hopefully they'll be scouring the landscape for vintage sleds well into their adulthood.

Maiden voyage of the fauxtoski last winter, great fun. Big thanks to Scott Tompkins for some pretty darn good video while he was hanging on to his 68 370 with one hand and the camera with the other hand

Is that the great Joe Olympique at the controls? Pretty sure that was a professional wheelie-pullin stunt man... The squatted pic was taken just as the pro lands a 30' high speed jump...

Great thread guys. Awesome to see the cross section from young to experienced folks, all sorts of sleds. Several different models and engine sizes with various HP out put. Keep it going guys. Bones

My brother Dan's 79 7500. It had a bent crank, and you vibrated for an hour after you stopped driving it. Eventually it blew up, LoL.
