Engine pulled from 03 800RMK with 4700 miles indicated on the odometer. Ran well, shows 125 psi compression on both cylinders and probably good for a few more miles, or good starting point for a rebuild. All original as best I can tell. No oil pump or VES valves. $400 plus shipping.

Located near Roberts MT and available for local pick-up, or willing to meet up as far as Billings. Also have other parts from this sled – check my other threads or PM me.

Pics from the compression check. Can't remember the exact conditions.

Shoot, sorry, haven't been paying attention. But yeah, still available. Full disclosure, the crank runout is way out (measured .014). So, I'd say crank rebuild and top end kit are needed to make it reliable. Not sure what to make of the piston walls; may need replating, but given the compression, you might get away with just new pistons and honing. Anyway, still a good core; will entertain offers, but looking to tear it down and get what I can out of it this month if it doesn't sell soon.

I do have a seat and tank. I'd definitely sell you the tank at a good price; been half thinking of keeping the seat in case I decide to take my sled back to original (it's in pretty nice shape), but I haven't decided for sure yet. Let me know what you're thinking and we'll go from there!
