79 Invader secondary bushing ?

Sorry guys...  I didn't mean to get off subject.

Yes, losing 35 lbs by using light weight/ smaller parts isn't too difficult...What impresses me is losing 35 lbs AND switching from FA to liquid.   

[Tory944]

  Ya,  I agree.  I don't think the liquid motor weighs much (even with the radiator) compared to the Kawis.  BUT...  Mercs don't run heat exchangers and all the tubes/hoses, also no oil inj.  Just a radiator-that's it.  There were soo many companies in the 70's and early 80's with huge potential if they would have just stayed in the game!  Can you imagine what companies like Merc and Kawasaki would be building if they were still around...  at the very least you and I might have owned a  shark before they got dismantled!

I have 75 340 Sno Twister and it is a blast to ride- seating position is best of all my vintage, it has the best access to carbs or anything , very easy to work on,  the aluminum drive shaft is too weak and they twist at the sprocket spline, have a new one to install this summer

How do I correct the upsidedown picture?

Edit the post by removing the picture and put one in that is right side up.

remember the 76 was a race only sled,motor and steering 2 in offset,steering under the bellypan,small radiator because short run time racing and plenty of airflow when you're kick

Yep...   and if you don't convert the offset oval bars to drag bars, you find yourself in a world of trouble when the front end comes back down.  The skis are pointing left and the bars are heading straight!
