$3500 buck!!
Bro get on that!!
A sled liek that up here would go for close to 6 grand.
Only unreliable issue I've read it the crank breaking and cause lots of damage.
As if this one has been re-built due to that.
Or if the cranks been re-enforced at all.

That is one great looking sled.

HTG has a good reputation.

The 660 powerplant will beat a stock, 600, 700 and 800.

The only downside is it has been raced ... so could have lots of problems and you would never know it until the snow flies.

Most guys on here would say to pass because a typical race sled is beat to death ... even after oine ride.

Cracked or bent stuff is not uncommon and you won't know it until you ride it and go off on a jump.

There have been people not knowing a race sled was bad until the frame buckled on the trail.

If you have to buy it ... be prepared to tear the sled down to fix it up,
Bad teeth in gear box, suspension , tunnel not right, engine mounts broke, something off on the engine. Some weld job break after a jump.

At the very least check compression.

Should be at least 130 warm and not more variance between cylinders than 5 maybe 10%

Also see if you have to run a race fuel mix.

I would be sure you know what you are getting into.
