Either the GF’s Dad put them in upside down when he was cleaning the carbs, or the previous owner had done that and my GF’s Dad just put them in the same way as they came out assuming it was correct.
She should run like new now, that things in pretty good shape!
Man that thing is fast. I didn’t see how fast I was going, but probably over 60mph in less than 4 seconds. Held me back the entire way and I had to let off before I ran out of ditch
Those pics bring back memories! Haven’t seen one of those in ages. They were a good machine in their day and plenty of jam!!
And those SRX guys were always good at going faster than anyone else could....at the bar!!! But they sure got quiet at the drag strip?!
One of the first statements that the carbs have been cleaned. Lol. If I had a nickel every time I heard that I wouldnt have to work no more. I’m glad you didn’t tear apart the engine first. Good you got it going. Enjoy.

Speedometer/dreamometer, have any of the speeds stated been verified?
Most times the speedometer is way out.
Fast is still fast, but it's scary to think about going those speeds on an old sled.
