Does anyone know what years the old bags were that went on the backrest? Ive seen many styles and just don't know which was available when. I think there were really early red ones, then the all yellow ones, then one black stripe, then two then..?
TIA

I'm certainly not well versed in the old leather saddle bags, but they are cool and expensive if you come across a nice one. I think most of the ones I've seen that are popular are the ones from the late 60's?
I've got a set that were from the 70's that hung over the seat and strapped to the running boards (I think?) on each side. They are zippered black canvas with foam cushioning sporting ski doo colors stripes and have the Ski Doo logo. I've used them a few times on my Citation just for fun and boy do they get covered with snow and freeze, rendering the zippers nearly useless while out on the trail.
It would be cool if there could be a forum here that is dedicated to "Vintage Ski Doo Accessories".
Found this picture on that fancy interweb thingy of what mine look like. These are in better shape than mine.

Nice. Those look like the colors of a late 70s early 80s blizzard. Never seen them before. Cool.
Ya I was always interested in a bag or two for some of my old rigs, but never sure of what was the right one. Even the old manuals weren't too worried it seems about being accurate either. Pictures were often from previous years models making it harder to figure out.
Not a bad idea having a forum like that... could even include toys etc.
Thanks
