Help to determine the wear of the stars

Good idea to add an oil cooler. There is a Lockhart brand that will work off an adapter that goes between the engine block & the oil filter housing. Just needing a longer oil filter bolt to hold it all together. I have on on my '76'. I put a cover over it in the cold weather. I ride mine 12 month a year in New York state USA. I have a set of spare wheels with dirt tires on the for snow. Not so good on ice though, I avoid that.
we have so much snow that we only use snowmobiles in winter. We have almost 7 months of winter

we have so much snow that we ride snowmobiles in the winter, and we can't use our motorcycles. Winter lasts for almost 7 months.

Wow, 7 months of winter. I was a teenager in the '70's. In Michigan we had some epic winters then. My parents were avid trail snowmobilers. I had a Kholer 340cc, 18" wide track Herters that was great on trails and deep snow. Skiing, ice fishing, snowmobiles, those were great times.

Michigan's latitude is a maximum of 48 degrees north . We have 69 degrees . That's almost as far north as Alaska . Alaska has a latitude of 71 degrees north .
winters are getting warmer . there's less snow . global warming is starting to make an impact
we have American snowmobiles, such as Polaris. We also have Canadian snowmobiles, such as BRP. We also have snowmobiles from our own manufacturers and from Finland. However, to be honest, BRP snowmobiles are the best. This is a fact.

Can someone from the experienced forum users tell me why the 2nd and 3rd cylinders were connected in the exhaust system in the Japanese version of the mufflers?

I live in the Far North region. Russian, the city of Murmansk . this is the 69th latitude. beyond that is only the Arctic Ocean. We don't have high temperatures very often. a good leather jacket is what you always need ) .
next time I want to pour synthetic oil 20w50 . these engines destroy the mineral base very quickly . I will try synthetic on esters. I bought Amsoil for my snowmobile, and I liked it, but we don't have it available right now.

Amsoil is VERY good oil
