Hey Guys, I had the SRX out today to get a nice short ride in but about 10 miles into the ride I noticed she was running pretty hot (not reading on the temp gauge, but just felt warmer than normal under the hood) and my Tach, more or less stopped working. :x As it was reading very faintly even when ...

Sounds great, thanks guys, I'm going to get into it this weekend as work has been pretty busy lately!!! Awesome for busniess bad for the sled...I'll keep you posted as to what I find out. Thanks again!

Hey guys, I know this has been discussed in a few other topics but I got my 3rd 81 back together and running. No major problems just the random missing nut and bolt and what not. However, This sled I'm keeping as a rider while the others I've redone and sold. Therefore, I've never much dealt with sp...

Completely agreed on that one!!! Any chance I could get a look at those skis with the decals? My 87 just has plain black skis but if they had /or I could get some decals that'd be a plus for me... Thanks again, and I didn't mean to be steppin on any toes or anything with the earlier comments just fi...

I was under the impression that the 87's with the rounded ski loops they did not have rubber tips as well as stickers on the skis...? I didn't see much rust just some discoloration. I called about the sled today and they said that it has had fuel in it as it has been ran on the stand like stated in ...

Hi Guys, I'm looking for a usuable set of 8M6 cylinders for the 81 SRX. I have an extra bottom end and head and am just in need of cylinders to make it a complete motor. It's an extra motor so I'm in no rush to get it done or am I really looking to spend a fortune on it. If you have any just shoot m...

If I'm not mistaken, the torque bolt should go in front of the motor, in between the exhast pipes where they exit the cyliders. There should be a place to slide the rod through on the front engine mount on the crossframe and the other end should, through that hole, push through and hook around the r...

I'm also in the process of doing the same, are there any tricks of getting the water pump housing off the case and then the case apart? Thanks

Mike

haha...isn't that what I wish I could pay for all the sleds I find...especially the original unrestored runners!!!

Hey guys, So I've gotten back into the sled, got the head off and all needed stuff out of the way as to get a good look at whats happeneing...The Clutch side cylinder, the one not firing looks real wet, so I'm figuring that the inside, piston gasket is the culprit and as usual, looks alittle big and...

That thing looks and sounds awesome!!! Surprising how it resembles the 81 in sound, atleast to mine...Keep the videos comin, lets see that girl out on the snow!!!

Thanks guys, its getting to that time of the year and I'd like to have the SRX ready for a few vintage rides that are planned. I'll definetly do the pressure test, but are there any tricks as to getting the orings to seat correctly and stay in there correct place? Like I've said, I must have just go...

Hey Guys, This is my 3rd SRX project and I've ran into a snag...I got the engine rebuilt and put back into the sled all wired up and when I get it fired its only running on 1 cylinder (recoil side) and not firing on the other. However, the smoke coming out of the exhaust is a white'sh colored smoke....

Do you have any 87 Motor parts and chassis? Where are you located? Thanks

Mike

I can get a picture up and to you, tomorrow if still interested. I'm thinking $35 shipped to your door would work for me.
