Mr. Siv. *Sounds like a good deal. *
How fast will it go. *Well im not sure but atleast 170-180. *
Just use amsoil or anyother high end syntetic and the bearing problem shouldnt be an issue.
i just got mine this year and so far i love it ! great accel, i got it up to 175 km/h and ran out of road but it still had power left. I also heard the cranks are fragile but if you let it warm up and drive slow for the 1rst mile you should be ok! Mine has the elec. start but on a cold day 2 pulls and she fires up. i paid 2600$ cdn with reverse and a 2 seatter.
Nice sled DanR and very fast. *Couple of my friends have them to. *A couple of them own two of them.

http://www.snowmobileworld.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif I have had a 95, 2-96's, and a 97 600, they are awesome. In fact I kept the 96 and made an improved stock 600, and placed 2nd in Pro-Stock in Msdrs Drags for season, it beats all stock 800's to date. http://www.snowmobileworld.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

the 96 f3 i had was a good sled. ran it in a couple of radar runs. 97mph in 1000'
Mr. Siv, should be a great buy! *These 600 triples really "spool up!" fast. A guy in our group runs one with UFO's in the carbs, and a thunder shift kit in the clutch, and makes the rest of us look bad!, top end is faster than we need to go!....he runs regular ski doo oil, and no crank problems so far....
