I must of bought a least a handful of them there scorpion (stinger) for around $200. Fix for a hour or two then ride for a hour or two and then fix again.
One of those the throttle stuck (put on a different carb and was testing in out) and i hit a big evergreen at full throttle with skis on both sides, flew up the tree and back down (thank God an evergreen) Crawl to neighbor at midnight (short distance) who call wife and trip to hospital for a week stay and a couple of months with a walker. Right thump never did get fix and hurts to this day.
Ah the memories.
Wife then bought our first new sled a polaris after that. About 15 years ago had two polaris and told kids whoever comes first can have both of those damn things including the trailer. Just got two cold for the old bones.
Never did understand, other than reason for drinking beer, why we had those sleds. db
