    Default not sure it'll float but i'm walking on water

    Here is a new toy I picked after a quite a few years in Storage, It is a 75 340 S/T Sno Twister. I always wanted one and I told a chum about it and the next thing I know he is sending me pics of this thing for sale. 150lbs on each cylinder after two pulls.

    The sled is all original with 988 Miles on it. Changed the fuel lines, cleaned the tank installed new plugs and pulled about 10 times and it was alive.

    Sam I thought you might enjoy it you know...for the history... now I am looking for a 440 as well and may have found one is as good condition but I have to rebuild the engine in it.

    here is a couple you tube links for the sled.

    Default Nice Find

    Any motor between a pair of twist top Mikunis & pipes is gotta run good.

    Had a buddy when I was growing up in Canada that had a 250 Sno Twister. It was real quick for a 250!

    Its really cool, but I still don't like snow
    Since 1925, about 150 different racing outboards have been made.

    I always wanted a 440 Sno Twister. I finally found a really mint one, drove it once, and was bored of it.

    But then again I hate snowmobiles.

    How much did you pay for it?

    I got to take a few rides on an old Yamahe 440. The seat was gone so a boat cushion was improv-d The machine had some real power & all but I hear todays sleds are major fast.
