1986 Yamaha Excel III

I bought 1986 Yamaha Excel III in 2007. It wasn't in bad shape: just USED:) Very clean inside and outside, but poorely maintaned. All the "lubrication points" were dry for ages, skis had huge endplay, shocks were gone...
During first season I managed to brake the track and moved machine to my garage:
It got new track, some new wheels and shocks. I fixed the steering: Installed bushings in the steering columns for skis and mounted grease fittings; changed tie rods; fabricared new axles for skis and installed grease fittings; repaired skis and installed wide plastic skins; in 2010 I installed ice scratchers.
I am very happy with this machine - I use mostly it for ice fishing and it's pretty good on the ice and snow.
