I can see Ratman, being from the Great White North, AND having his great fondness for vintage machinery going to this swap meet, and leaving hooked on modifying and riding his newly acquired vintage sled collection, getting hooked on these.... Maybe even getting a Boa tattoo or something... The Drifter may get long forgotten...
On a serious note, though, I had never even heard of Boa Skis, until now. Those are pretty cool. How did somebody in OH get into collecting vintage snow machines, with our annual average of 2" of snow?

Option 1 You order them, you pay for them once they arrive you try them on your bike till I get there and then I buy them from you for $100.00.
Option 1A you order them I pay for them, you store them for me in a safe dry place as a favour to me, then I install them prior to going to DI 14, and figure out how to get the old pipes home.
Option 2 You order them, Chilli pays for them. When they get here, you give ChiliDrift a ring, and he can swing by on his new H-D, show it off to you and brag a bit, then he'll be the mule to getting them to me. That would be a decent ride on his new H-D a good break-in run anyhow. And customs would just think it was spare parts for a H-D rider and he would be passed.
Boaski could you take a couple of close ups of your bracket for me please. Thanks

- October 17, 2013, 19:54:11 PMHey those are pretty sharp. What are you wanting to do? Black powder coating??
It's not out of the question, you know. Here's how I see it... I'll order them on Ebay, and have them shipped here. You wire me the money. When they get here, I'll try them out on my 800. Then when you come through for Drift in 14, come a day early, and we'll switch them over on your 800. Off you go. OR strap them on the luggage rack on your way back home.....Option 2: order/ship/pay same as option 1. When they get here, I'll give ChiliDrift a ring, and he can swing by here on his new Indian Chief, and he'll be glad to mule it up there for you. He'll be wanting to give that new Indian a good break-in run anyhow.
