play with sec clutch spring twist, your gearing must be close if your running 99+mph . you would be suprised at how little as 10 degree twist can add a couple mph easily. you want the least amount of tension as possible just enough to hang onto the belt and youll get the best mph. When you set up th...

if the spark plugs are soaking wet after you pull it over more then likely it has fuel in the pipes and case, thats why it was so hard to pull over. I would pop off the pipes and tip them over if fuel runs out its case flooded and it will not start till you empty it out. If so, the needle and seat a...

I might be interested in the carbs for a phazer upgrade, let me know what youd take for them, thanx

Delaughter built lots of these 3 cylinders, they made very good power! Youd be best to call him on the pipes for it!

what is a good clean 81 ski worth on the market?, i have a couple extras.

wow, nice job, looks nice.

any paticular reason your running vmax pipes on it? or do you have a 540 engine in it?

I have (2) 81 srx's, one of them has the silver lettering one has the white lettering, both are original seat covers. I also have a brand new in the package NOS yamaha seat cover, it has the silver lettering. They changed somewhere along the lines in the same year, either one is correct.

I found this on ebay for you , he has 2 brand new ones, cheap too!

heres what I got, the brand new yamaha ski tip protectors are from a little later vmax540-84-85?. The ski loop handles are the same on them all, they are used but in decent useable shape.

loops or the ski tips?, as theres 2 differnt pcs for the same ski.

I have some extra loop ones and a pair of new NOS ones for the tip but they are not the 83 tip ones, they are for the later ones. The 83 tips ones are the same as the 81 srx440, same 8m6 ski(skinny)

sorry, I dont have one.

do you still have this sled for sale?

After watching that oval racing, I was wondering why nobody had a 440 srx in the old class??? so I said since I have a couple of these 81 440's why not bring 1 out to play with. I have to stud the srx and get these big carbides, rest will be just clutching/gearing and set up the chassis. Not gonna g...
