Here's my little beater sled.

1987 Skidoo Citation 250. :good::good:

It's going to get a nice restoration job during the off season.

Nice and light compared to my big 1000cc Yamaha. ;)

A.K.A the short track Tundra. Those were great. Tippy but fun and easy to toss around.

p.s. great Newfie stitching.

Great buy. The Enticers are a perfect machine for the sensible rider looking for a work horse and reliable sled for ice fishing. Was it not around 2005 when they stopped making them?

 

This winter is shaping up to be a wicked snowy one. Glad this rain is thickening up the snow and surface crusts, should help keep the Bravo floating up on top.

 

Some wicked pics too BTW.

Couldn't find a pic anywhere but my first sled I bought myself was a 1986 Polaris LT 440. Fan cooled, extra long articulating track with the big storage rack. Found this picture but the LT was black and blue and longer obviously.

wow, looks mint, very cool

 

I like the old Liquifires and Spitfires (cylinder head sticking through the cowl) too

 

wow, looks mint, very cool, it's good to see that you run it too (gently I assume)

I strayed from Yamaha and bought this Intruder 440, I think a cool looking sled

like DanC's, an ET 300, 1980, the coolest thing about this picture is my hair

All those sleds are still a long way from my Olympic 24 hp. Skidoo! Can't remember the year, early 70s. Brings back a lot of fun memories.

When I had that machine, no licenses were required, and you could drive them on the roads.

Thanks for posting those great pics of yesteryear!

This was back in 1989.

My daughter and her friend driving a couple of early 70's.
These old sleds were almost bullet proof and surprisingly quick in their day.

Had I kept them, they would likely still run.

We had a 1980 ET same as the blue one a few pictures up and oh man did we ever beat the snot out of that thing to the point of the suspention breaking in half we fixed it from there and then the run began we totally customized it. We put a set of ape hanger high bars on it, a set of "highway pegs" coming off the cowling, Painted it jet black and put chrome snow screens on it

then took it watercross for a few afternoons it was awesome
