    I got a new 1985 Safari 377 for Christmas when I was in 10th grade. It was a quick fun sled that even channeled the heat from the engine to a vent under the windshield. It was a good place to warm the hands. It got cold up in Northern Maine...

    Old sleds never die! Those 377 were and stilll are a very popular sled for it's light weight and a bit more speed then a 340! I had 2 of them and wish I still had them! Dam covid cranked the price of vintage sleds through the roof.

    Hey Pete I heard you mention loosing the straws off you cans of brake Kleenex or lube. What we do at our shop is when you set up a new can put some silicone around the straw and cap. The next day it’s good to go and you will never loose it. Love your videos by the way.

  • @johnhicks9529

    Quick tip.,or secret to you Flex seal will fix those rubber boots to.& right stuff works to its rubber in A spray can. Try flex seal out. The price could be cheaper.,or close to that right stuff. Either product will works on those. Even black silicone works good to for rubber boot repairs. The WD-40,or kroil oil works good as A moisture.& water displacer in fuel tanks it helps clean carbon out of cylinders.& exhausts systems to. Good luck. 2 thumbs ☝ up.

    Well that was sweet, what ya did Fer that old sled. I'm an old guy (70) and my nieghbor rents ice shantys out for spearing pike. He's got an ice boat for crossing the channel. 18 foot aluminum hull w/ a Lycoming airplane motor pushing it across the ice. Once across the channel he uses a 1968 single cylinder johnson sled to pull the fisherman to the the shantys. And he's got a spare sled of the same vintage Fer parts 😜. And he still axes the holes thru the ice. Old school 🚸.

    My first sled was a 90 safari 377. My buddies called it the super tanker because I could ride all day and have plenty of fuel left. Sold many gallons of fuel. Kept for 3 years and since ride Polaris. 95 Arctic Cat 580 zr for a spare. Love your channel. Yakima Washington

  • @mazdarx7887
    @mazdarx7887 Před rokem

    Ever notice how the tracks fail on those machines fail. Usually the edge of the track gives out. If you mount a third wheel (even a fourth) in the center on the rear axel the tension is spread out over the width of the track rather than just the edges. I did it on a 85 250 citation and a 89 Tundra. Works like a charm

    Great vid, I worked on a pile of these at a dealership from 1981 to 1990. The same engine was in the 4500 citations, that 377 engine model was a pretty good engine. I do need to just mention that the date on the side of the tunnel is the build date, May 1985, but the model year is a 1986 377 safari. The 1985 model had a black hood and was built in 1984. Like cars and such.

  • @neighborscomplaint6859

    Enjoy your channel! I snowmobiled from the early '70's through the early 2000's. My last 2 sleds were a snowcross 2001 Arctic Cat SnoPro 440 with a tunnel heat exchanger added for trail riding and a snowcross SkiDoo MXZX modded with low compression power domes, oil pump and tank and 10 gal tank for trail use. They were the ultimate trail selds at that time. Not the fastest across the lake left 'em in dust in the twisties. Keep up the good work ... wobble pops!!!! Love it!
