Drifter F/A - my first Kawasaki snowmobile
« on: March 08, 2018, 08:01:40 AM »
Pretty sure I am going to have to do crank seals. Runs a bit inconsistent especially hard starting warm. Great shape, though! I also have to go thru the primary clutch. It feels like the spring is very weak.

Found a few air leaks, reworked the primary a little and have gone from 38mph up to 52 on a warm 40 degree day. Definitely getting better, but needs a little more work yet. It will be 100% by the time I have snow to ride again.
