My first snowmobile was a 1971 Motoski, Capri

As advertised !

It outlasted me biggrin

Water in the carburetor was it's only fault.

I had a 71 Capri as well Randy! It was basically the first thing I'd really ever rebuilt up to that point, and I was very proud of it.

So it was a 10 year old sled when we went out booting one day. Well, we all went down a steep, very rough and rooted trail down to a frozen lake.

Ripped around for a bit and was sucking the snow mist of all the hot sleds. I think they were rolling their eyes at my old relic. So time comes to leave, of the 6 or so sleds in the group, guess who made it back up that trail?
