Title: Skidoo Manuals
Post by: mswyka on January 28, 2020, 04:40:27 PM

I realize that this is technically not the place to answer this question, but I am confident that someone knows the answer.

A good friend has a 1980 Skidoo Everest 500E and a 1989 Safari Saga 377.  Both sleds are getting tired and need to be refreshed.  Where can I find good manuals for these two sleds?

I did manage to find manuals, but they are not like the Kawasaki manuals.  They show general repair information they don't include information like jetting and other specifications.  Still looking.

Only thing I know of, I do have an Elan but plan to not keep it.

I may be looking in the wrong place, but I am not seeing manuals for 1980 or 1989.  This could be operator error.

I thought I was the only one that had operator errors :)

Lloyd, we only had one weekend of snow in early December.  We have snow in the Adirondacks.  Too much work to be done to let me break free to get up there.  Hopefully in the next couple of weeks.
