Nice!

I still regret selling my low miles 97 FIII, but I have too many machines now.

Lol, 21 ICE pieces,  totaling 63 cylinders. I just added them up to prove my green bona fides.

I have an old sled addiction and there is no cure.

Once I fully retire there are a few that I will pay stupid money for. 

Don't tell my wife.

Really only one I have left that I want right now is an 01-03 XCR 800.  Really only willing to buy sleds in very good shape and willing to pay if they are good enough.  I need to stop doubling up on the models I already have and hold out for the Polaris.

1984 JD liquifier

Same vintage Yamaha Vmax

I really don't know what I'd pay for those in near mint shape...probably too much.

Never really understood the guys that pay ridiculous money for say a 69 Camaro or Mustang etc.

Buy some old turd that a soccer mom's suv would beat in any measure of performance.......

Then I got old and somewhat nostalgic.

There was a couple early 80's Vmax's I should have went after.   I have my 80's gem (82 Kawasaki Interceptor) so I didn't pull the trigger.

I want a 1989 Indy 650.  That was the sled of my dreams when I was 9 years old.  That's a minty thunnerchicken!  Would love a rip on a crusty laketop on that!

I'd take an Interceptor as well. Buddy had one, cool as fuck for the time.

Picked this up last week.   Can't believe what he let it go for.  98's in this kind of shape are hard to come by.

"06" what?

when poo dropped the xcr 800 in o3 they hung on to a bunch. Released them to dealers in 06 as used sleds with 5-6 miles on them as they would not pass emitions to be sold as new.

I never heard of that, a very good friend owned a Polaris dealership, he never mentioned that. I got my 2001 that way though, over-stock left over in 2002.

Saw one in Nashua NH and just thought it was a used sled . Asked the guy how many miles. He said 5

Then 2 months later saw another in Milo Maine and asked about it. When he also said 5 miles we kept talking and he told me what happened with them .
