My son has a '98 Summit X that was my sled for years. Over 9000 miles on it now. I bought some 5mm Spectra cord from (gasp) REI ten years ago for that sled. It's still going strong.

Pull cord

Cant remember the name of it but it's red & all the old school big motor triples used it. There was a old thread that listed the name of the manufacturer. I still keep some extras in my trailer!

If you need a rope right now try your local STIHL chainsaw dealer.
