Thanks for the kudos, I appreciate it!
Because I easily get distracted by shiny things, and polishing this thing has gotten on my nerves, I've been gathering and cleaning parts for reassembly. I'm also wanting to do a few tasteful upgrades, little things that mainly, only someone in the know would eye.
For instance, I have use l new raised BRP emblems instead of buying a correct Bombardier. I also am going to use a black/yellow or yellow/yellow handlebar pad from a later model, since I've got several of them in mint condition.
I am stuck on the VTS gauge, though. The one that came with the ski was junk.. and after looking through all of my parts, the nicest one I've got (sucker is minty) is from a 99 XPL.. and I think I like it better. Only problem is the wiring isn't exactly the same. Anyone have any tips on the wiring of this thing, if it's possible? There's an extra wire or two.
