1968 YAMAHA SL-350 SNOWMOBILE

OVER THE YEARS, WITH THE INFO I WAS ABLE TO GATHER, I THOUGHT THAT YAMAHA HAD
2 PRODUCTION RUNS OF THEIR 1968 YAMAHA SL-350 SNOWMOBILE.

ACCORDING TO THE INFO ON THE INTERNET.....
( 300 ) 1968 YAMAHA SL-350 SNOWMOBILES WERE PRODUCED.
270 SENT TO CANADA AND USA AND 30 HELD BACK IN JAPAN FOR TESTING.

WHAT I READ IS THAT YAMAHA PRODUCED SOME 1968 YAMAHA SL-350 ( 20 HP ) PROTOTYPES FOR
TESTING IN CANADA AND USA.  THESE UNITS WERE TESTED IN NOVEMBER 1967.

I DISCOVERED THAT THE
1968 YAMAHA SL-350 SNOWMOBILE.....
WERE OFFERED WITH 2 MOTORS.
A 20 HP ENGINE THAT I THINK WAS FOR THE 1ST PRODUCTION.
AND
A 22 HP ENGINE THAT I THINK WAS FOR THE 2ND PRODUCTION.


1968 YAMAHA SL-350 SNOWMOBILE

IT'S JUST MY OPINION THAT THE NUMEROUS ARTICLES ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THE
1968 YAMAHA SL-350 SNOWMOBILE.....
ARE BEING COPIED ONE AFTER ANOTHER AND RETOLD AS FACT.

I AM NO EXPERT BUT AFTER DOING RESEARCH ON THIS MODEL, I FIND IT HARD TO
BELIEVE THAT THERE WERE ONLY 300 TOTAL 1968 YAMAHA SL-350 SNOWMOBILES MADE AND
THE TOTAL OF SLEDS THAT WERE DELIVERED TO THE USA AND CANADA WERE 270 UNITS.
THE OTHER 30 WERE KEPT IN JAPAN.

IT IS HARD TO GET THE TRUE HISTORY AFTER SO MANY YEARS HAVE GONE BY.
NOTE !!
I SEARCHED THE NEWSPAPERS ON MANY OCCASIONS.
THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF ADS IN THE FALL OF 1967 AND
EARLY 1968 LISTING 1968 YAMAHA SL-350 SNOWMOBILES FOR SALE AT YAMAHA DEALERS.
SOME DEALERS HAVE UP TO 5 OF THEM TO SELL.
SOME ADS HAVE A 20 HP MOTOR AND SOME ADS AND ARTICLES HAVE A 22 HP MOTOR.
IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE THAT ALL ACROSS THE USA AND CANADA THAT
THERE WERE ONLY 270 - 1968 YAMAHA SLEDS.
