Doing the 440 puma swap.  Single carb for now but eventually a dual carb setup will be sweet once I collect the parts.  ERX vintage day tomorrow

Yep going tomorrow.  It looks like above zero so if it's not so windy it should be ok.  I'll be on the puma so if you see it say hi I will maybe have a buschh for you depending on if I have any left

Had the day off today, got 7" of snow while I was home, test drove the 600 mod then got into the scrap pile and fabricated a rear bumper for the 800 that i put used running boards on last weekend.

Not a clue.  My friend said there are plenty of sleds on the trailer and if I want to go, it is wheels turning at 5am.

We'll see how motivated I am in 5 and a half hours.

nah... already ordered two complete new sets for both sleds while fuming in my buddies driveway from the phone.  it's the one part of the sled I tell everyone who uses it to be careful about, so it was inevitable that I was the one to do it.

Duct tape will fix that 

not slipping on ice in the trailer and tripping over the tie down bar in the dark will also not do that... :$

have considered building a GD Soo intake screen protector for both of them numerous times...

always wondered if they were available new yet or  if a body had to get creative in replacing them with some kind of make-shift material.
