The
light-n-lively SRV is, sadly, going up on eBay.
Its condition is "non-running" due to bad crank bearings and a missing track wheel. If I were staying in the Midwest I'd replace the track wheel and PTO crank bearings and continue to ride it. I enjoy this sled and have put parts into it to keep it maintained and current. But, I'm moving to Colorado, so I don't think I'll move this fun midwestern trail sled with me to the mountains. I've owned this sled for several years (around 2000). It was purchased from a buddy who owned it from new. It's always been stored inside (both owners) - it's clean and mainly free of rust and UV damage. It also spent much of its life being trailered in a salt free, enclosed trailer. In the time I've owned it I kept up on the maintenance - so you get an unusually clean and current Yamaha SRV 540! |

7516 Miles
On the last trip the motor 'ticked' and stopped (PTO bearing failure - no bent rods or other damage). Not more than an hour or two earlier a rear track wheel fell off. Not a good day for me. The wheel issue was 100% my fault - I didn't replace the worn NyLoc nut that keeps the wheel on (nor did I put a cotter pin through the hole - just asking for trouble). |

Holes in the cover near the right hand hold
Small tear in the seat.
The seat is soft and supple - not hard nor cracking since the sled was stored inside and did not get sun/UV damaged.
Small, repaired, hood crack (upper circle).
Small, repaired, foot bar crack (lower circle).
Small, unrepaired hood crack.
