Does it have to have 12 volt supplied to get power?

Great video very helpful. Quite the adventure getting to it. Do you know the size of the oring used on the eccentric? I took it to a hydraulics shop. They got me close but not close enough. Maybe metric sized? Probably end up reusing the 50 year old one.

So…I grew up riding backseat passenger on a 74 Kynx II a 440 and my mother had a Lynx I witha 292. In 79 my dad brought home a Kitty Kat that I thought was a 72 so year matching. Turns out 30+ yrs later it was a 71 but who cares. After being used by a ton of my cousins I restored it for my X gf’s grand kids. I got it back and it’s with a good friends kids

Definitely restore and use it!!!

I did a single mikuni on my 400 Cheetah years ago. I found another intake manifold, cut it at an angle and flipped the flange over and had it welded back up to level the carb. Pressure tested it and bobs your uncle. It worked great.

Amazing job! Just curious how tall you are and how comfortable the short chassis is for a bit of a casual ride? Im looking at doing something similar but not sure if it would be manageable to ride 20-30 miles at 6ft tall.

Great job! This inspired my panther build

Thank you so much for this video I just recently found in Arctic Cat, 1971 puma with weak ignition among other problems but now I feel confident that I can address it. thanks for spending the time.

7:14 that’s the exact same moto ski I had as my first snowmobile!! Damn I miss that ugly old thing lol

Money well spent! Ain’t nothing cooler than these vintage Cats!

How does the timing advance work?

Can you tell me where to purchase a mod hood for a 72 puma

Never find these dawm flange adapters

An adjustable throttle cable will customize throttle travel...... Wahl Brothers Racing Products

Does anyone have a part number for the crank seals? Thanks

Thank you! Just diagnosed my 72 puma 440.

Any news on the kohler rebuild, thanks

Rice Creek Trail Association is bringing this show back!! March 2nd....mark your calendars!

Sometimes the Kawy Cats got a bad rep but over the years I’ve found that the 400 and under Kawy were better than the 440s. Also any 45 year old engine will usually need some TLC . Doesn’t matter what brand it is. As far as chrome peeling well yes the 1971/72 engines had some warranty issues and Kawasaki stepped up and fixed the problem. However old school two stroke oil wasn’t where it needed to be. I got a brother who still drags a modified to the gills 440 Kawy fan Puma and under what I’d consider to be extremely severe service the chrome holds up pretty good. But he’s running modern fuels and full synthetic oil. Usually he has to watch the crankshaft verses the chrome. But again it’s modified and twisting 7000 rpm plus . I believe it’s quite possible to build a Kawasaki and enjoy it without fear. I’ve got a 1972 399 im going to go through next summer.

Awesome to see. My father had a 340 Pantera 72 or 73 I belive

Holy Cow, that sucker is Sweet!

This is an awesome project. I am currently in the middle of a project on the same exact sled. I had a few questions that I was hoping you could answer. I took the carb off and it was an old Bendix Zenith. not very familiar with those as it must of been added on at some point in its life. what carb would you recommend me switching to? thanks for your help

Well that’s the best thing I’ve seen in years. Makes me want to do one when I get mine done.

Fantastic Build ! I hope you're still going to make more videos ? Maybe start doing some live streams, Reels or make some videos with limited or no editing involved would make it easier. I really don't understand why you do not have more views on you videos. Great Job .

Awesome Build!!

Good video but really, really did you really need to take God's name in vain bud clean it up

Dang. That's beautiful! Lots of problem solving, but after a lot of hard work the results are amazing. Let it snow!

Great job! I’m sure the video process is a bitch. But we all enjoyed the build.

Looks fantastic!

That thing is Awesome!!! So Jealous. love the look, Runs real nice, plain ol Sweet. 9:25 Your crazy Jason, if i tried that somehow the rope would get caught and thing winch itself to the ceiling LOL. Never stop posting up cool stuff like this.

That is definitely cool and you did a great job.

Wow, super cool seeing you bring that sled back to life. Highly impressive!

Great build, thanks for sharing.

F*uck the internet you do you! Sub'd

Awesome. Loved it! Great looking machine. Cant wait to see it haulin the mail

very impressive job. are you planning to ever paint the chassis? seems like kind of a gamble leaving it rusty.

Awesome job bud! Hopefully get to see you with it at a show this year.

Such a great sled. Pretty impressive for your first rear engine rebuild. That thing was destined for lawn art but you brought it back to life. been fun chatting about it as you went along. Great job.

That thing is sweet! definitely a labor of love when you get a basket case like that .

Where did you say you got the vinyl fabric for the track? Need some for my sno traveller

Awesome job..! Looks great..!!

Nice job man

Fantastic commercial. Just like the real deal

So glad you finally got a rear engine sled!!! Can’t wait to see the progress!!!

Great video!!! I love watching you work and totally envy how meticulous you are with all your projects!!!! I loved the original Dragline video and I’m so glad you performed a top quality rebuild to keep that old sucker running for decades to come! Good work! Ps. Screw those trolls! Anyone can sit on the sideline and complain. It takes a shit ton of work, knowledge and commitment to crank out good content and you got those bases covered! Keep doing what you are doing and screw those losers!

Excited to watch this series! Nice find man!

That will be a sweet rig. Patina is good.

what bar risers do you use

Loved it

Nice motor work. Pop had a p 12 come back into the dealership with a locked motor from lack of oil. Guy bought a two stroke Panther to replace it. Dad wound up boring the block and installing a 14 hp top end. Thus creating a P14! It had some clutch work done and probably dropped the gearing. Heavily studded the track. He pulled firewood with that thing for decades. I sold it with his blessing to a collector from Maine 20 years ago. What a tractor in the snow!
