XCR 583 atleast for me was a custom one off. Polaris xcr chassis, with a skidoo 583 motor.

heres some pic of mine so far. not too much to look at yet still scrounging up parts. all i got so far is the motor bolted in the 440 frame. possibly might be buying an entire 04 f7 for a donor sled then parting out the rest if i can get it real cheap since its pretty rough.
when i got it last year

Yes sir that was at flat rock inn the other day. I live like 45 miles from there. And nice pic. That's my new slednecks jacket and pants my wife got me for christmas.
My sled is geared to do 90 but get there in a hurry. Stock f7' will do around 115. I still want to figure out a way to race my sled vs my buell. I think the sled. Would take it till about 60

Thats a nice looking TNT....
I miss my sleds... Between work and the kids i just couldnt find time to ride.
I used to ride a 04 Skidoo REV 800 Renegade.
http://www.speedfreaks-ct.com/uploads/sled1.jpg
Before that I had a 95 Polaris XLT 600 Special and a 98 XCR 700.
Once my son gets a couple years older im going to get back into it with him. May pick up a beater for around the house to get him into it soon.

those abortions were built here at the York, PA H-D plant for a few years. used to be several running around York and Lancaster counties back in the day. other than my orange and blue 1968 Johnson Sno-Horse, they were absolutely hideous to look at in person. LOL:D

now THIS is what i had as a kid. 25mph about tops, had to mix oil with gas, flat boxer twin with cylinders front and rear, compression release button to start, matching nylon snowmobile suit to match. a very sexy machine if i do say so myself. :D:phttp://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/8903_20111229014057_L.jpg

Buellbradski the trails were decent but a little rocky. The had 6 to 8 in at flat rock. I think they lost most of it the other day but got more the yesterday. I might try to go again today or tommorow. I have heard they have close to a foot

just got back from riding about 60 miles. left from barnes corners went through montague to flat rock and highmarket. trails were horrible from barnes corners to montague all mud and water. past montague they were pretty decent. they are tore up pretty good after today though there was alot of sleds out. we definitly need some more snow but its supposed to be in the 40's sunday. if you really want to ride you probley could this weekend just stay around montague highmarket area
