I rode an Enticer this year for 10 or 15 miles.
A friend of one in our group thought it would be fun to
come on an 85 mile ralley with it.
I just thought I'd be a nice guy and let him ride my XC for a while,
he almost didn't give it back.
He was always pulling up the rear so I figured I just get to sit back with it pinned
and do my best to stay with everyone on the trails.
Well I was surprised to see this thing haul ass, and I even stayed up at the front of the pack.
Weight transfer on those old Enticers is alomost crutial,
you had to lean it just right to keep skis down...what a blast it was.
I wound it out to 60 mph on the one straight away we saw...too fast really for a pre-independant sled.
Neat photos P man, The two skidoos are a 66 or 67 olympic and a 71 olympic. I began snowmobiling with a 64 olympic as a first sled and bought new a 71 olympic just like in the photo. I am in the process of restoring a 63 skidoo alpine (single ski, double track). I'll try and get afew pics at some point and post.
Riley, didn't the 72 have black stripes down the two indentations in the hood? My 71 olympic had a 335 single putting out 20hp, they also offered a 399 twin putting out 24hp.
I used to think we were quick!!!
cnc you are correct. My 72 did have black stripes down the front of the hood. I removed the stripes because they were all bubbled up. I don't know how much horsepower my old 72 puts out but it will pull about 40 on a hard packed road. The old OLY is really singing and 40 mph. Riley
