THE 1973 JOHNSON GOLDEN GHOST

In the early 1970's,a big worry for the sledmakers was a difficult problem with sound levels that threatened to loom on the legislative horizon.  Johnson reacted to the challenge with the Golden Ghost in 1973, billed as the quietest production snowmobile in the world.  The Ghost was quiet at 73dB.(A), but very heavy.  Those who saw the first demonstrations of The Ghost could easily see the machines excessive weight was not due to the soundproofing, so the machine stood as proof to all that snowmobiles could be built quiet.

    Hi Larry,

    I like your profile and the articles you posted. I am from germany and last year we bought a 1973 Johnson Golden Ghost 30.

    Now we are looking for information about the engine and transmission for the Golden Ghost 30. Especially the clutch.

    I would be very happy, if you could provide us with some details or contacts about this issue.

    Thanks a lot.

    Boris
