Date Posted: 08:30:42 03/06/12 Tue I purchased a 1972 Elan SS 292 for my wife at Christmas that year. I'v owned Ski Doos all my life and still Doo. I was told at the time by the dealer that Bombardier was only making 50 of these sleds. It simply was a 12/3 Elan with a 292 cc, TNT single in it for power and three SS stickers. The weight to power ratio was good and it would pull the skies off the ground when launched hard. It absolutely excelled at hill climbing and deep powder snow conditions. Of all the Ski Doos we've had over the years, this is the only one I regret having sold. In 1974 we bought my wife a 294 cc twin SS complete with slides and shocked skies with carbides. What a disappointment, compairing the two preformance wise. Can't imagine the collector value of this sled but if I had our's now you'd never be able to afford buying it from us. That's my 2 cents worth and I'm sticking to it . . . [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
