I restored one of these once with only 200 actual miles on it. Actually I had a pair, one was the 294 twin. They were boght together and the 294 only had 130 miles with a melted piston, then I bought a couple more, I think I had 4 at one time. The triple was just too radical to ride much but you could hear it for miles. I had to fiddle with the Warlboros everytime I took it out.

There is something I know nothing about, never have even seen one in person! Not enough snow down here for there to be a market. From what I've seen on TV, they look like they could be fun if you like snow, which I don't.
 
From the 60s- 70s, snowmobiles were the most radical hot rods that you could buy off a showroom. They were so fast that the AMA had to outlaw using a snowmobile engine. A couple guys put them in bikes and kicked serious butt, caused a pretty big uproar.
I have owned some other factory race sleds. Cool stuff
