1975 SKIROULE - SONAR 440

- After seeing the posting on your site of Andrew Taylor's finished restoration
of his 72 Northway; which I had the privilege of selling one junk
machine to; I felt I would pass along a picture of my latest acquisition
that I felt might deserve to find a spot on your site. I bought the 1975
Skiroule Sonar 440 this past winter which I found to be in great shape,
but as soon as the snow melted the machine ended up in pieces on the work
bench (terrible habit), hopefully to be in even better shape by next
winter. As I wait for the snow to return you can see what keeps me busy during the rest of the year. What you see was a 1973 Moto-Ski F-295, when a new track couldn't be found for a reasonable price, I felt the machine wasn't worth fixing. But while searching for tracks I came across Blake Reads Sno-Jet website, where he had the same machine on a wheel kit. By the next day I was well on my way of figuring out how to do it, after a year it was up and running again on 4 wheels. The stock engine was replaced with a 440 from a Skiroule, and is breathing thru a Mikuni carb. The only things that are still the original Moto-ski, are the frame, the drive train and gauges. Keep
up the great work. Darius Summers - Guelph Ontario
