I remember back in the late 70s when Yamaha first made the 540 SRV (with the coil shocks on the skiis). They didn't even have a CC classification for it at the snowmobile drag races at the local winter fair.

A buddy of mine bought one at the time, and ended up doin' just a few solo passes since no one could race him. Nothin' from the factory could touch'em at the time.

I owned a 399 Olympic back then - good for haulin' my fishhut out onto the lake each winter. Reliable as hell and everything could be fixed with a ball pein hammer and duct tape.
