Well the Father-in-law decided that if it did not start for him it was time to get rid of it on the cheap without consulting me. B-stard I maintained this thing for years. All it ever needed was a simple carb clean if it had any problems starting but most of the time a few priming pumps and it fired on the first tug. He also gave away the sled that could be attached to it to haul the firewood around.
It was a mid to late 80's Skidoo Safari Scout. 377cc I believe. It looked exactly like this. It was a twin with a single carb. sooooooo easy to fix it was not funny.
Looking for:
Possible 2 up . the cabin is just of a snowmobile highway Rt 105 & 5 and might enjoy tossing the wife on back and tooling around for 20-30 miles)
Ability to create fresh tracks in 2’-3' of snow (If we don't get up the cabin we can have this much powder)
I like the simple Carb design (1 carb) the sled can sit for a while.
Ability to haul a sled
Short length. yea, I know a 2 up is not quite short in length
Not looking for a battery operated push button start. I don't want to rely on a battery as the sled can sit for months.
A simple work horse. Cruse the trails. Clear fallen debris, haul the fire wood around.
Good wind protection.
Air cooled, NOT Liquid
Used -Cheap-not a lot of repair- Runs
Probably 2T
Light weight
Suggestions, Thougths on what direction i should be looking into.
