just put down cash on 2 venture 500's lc, 1997 and 98. both need engine work but are otherwise in real good condition.

1998=7,300 miles
1997=8,300 miles

Plan
#1
leave one bone stock

#2
project lightened 2up mountain sled with a possible upgrade to 600 clyinders, pipes, reeds, cluthing and long track and extension (151+)

QUESTION
maximum track size clearance without a drop and roll (1.5 or 2")?

what needs to be done in order to upgrade from the 500 to 600 cylinders?

used parts? would consider any mod's to optimize the HP and performance of the mtn sled

I'll be posting pics as progress begins

thanks
