Bolens Diablo Rouge and Hus Ski Discussion Forums

Greetings folks from Lewis County, NY.

Very cool forums, I found it by searching for info on a Bolens Hus Ski (serial# is 20500 or 20508, hard to read) I had it given to me by my wife's family, after her Dad past away, he was a Scorpion dealer for years. Now that I'm retired, I think I can find the time to restore it. Been many years since I have wrenched a snowmobile or rode one, just never had time after I got married, matter of fact my first job was a wrench at a local Ski Doo dealer just out of high school. So anyway I'm looking forward to hanging out here and soaking up all the available info here on the Hus Ski's

Hey! Welcome aboard Oledog!

I too was a newbie not too long ago. I took every opportunity to find info on my toy trough the use of this wonderful forum. Thanks to a lot of knowledgeable folks on here.

I encourage you to do the same and look up your machine and view and review the posts about it. BEST learning tool ever.

with a serial number like that your may have a 1963 model 200.

Thanks for the welcome
Here a few pics, the original color is the blue, then it was yellow, then red. So far it needs skis, recoil, air box, and lots of tlc. Engine is a 148cc JLO, turns over fine, so that's good, easier to rebuild. Any info gathered from the pics would be appreciated

Your machine has great, straight metal. Your work is half done with a machine like this.
