Crazy Fast Polaris Snowmobile 650

Doing a walk around on my custom 79 Polaris Centurian I built a couple years ago.

[@allanvaneste4999]

Awesome work. Beautiful old Polaris done up right.

What a blast from the past! Thanks for the video. Even though I was an '80's kid/teen, I could barely afford a used tx340. My friends and I drooled over machines like this. They were talked about like a mythical god among my friends.

Outstanding job. I had a 77 Electra 440 that's when Polaris was building some amazing sleds for the time period. Nothing could touch the engines and some of the best brake systems inn the world. Thanks for the flashback

That sled is sick. Nice job. Years ago I put a 503 out of a Blizzard, in a 1984 Safari 377. That was one fast sled.

[@toddclyne3493]

Thanks man

[@donprice9039]

@@toddclyne3493 I have an 89 Indy 650, and it's a pretty sick sled itself. I have had it doing 100 mph in a long farm field before. That headlight on yours looks pretty dull. You can get a sealed beam convertion kit for those, so it will take an H4 light bulb. I have an HID blue ion bulb in my 650, and I can see very well with that.

[@toddclyne3493]

Thanks for the info on the headlight.

[@discbreakrecords3311]

Very cool. My first sled was a '79 TX. Sold it in '93 shortly before moving 30 miles away. About 8 years later I'm looking out my front window and the guy across the street is riding around the yard with a friend. I told the wife, "that looks like my old TX". then I saw the numbers painted on the hood and said, "that IS my old TX". Went over and tried to buy it back but he wasn't selling.

[@toddclyne3493]
