Moto-Ski Zephyr 340 Snowmobile (1970-1973)

The Moto-Ski Zephyr 340, produced from 1970 to 1973, was a popular three-passenger snowmobile known for its reliability. Throughout its production, the Zephyr 340 underwent several notable changes, primarily in its engine specifications and exterior design. Initially, the 1970 model featured a 317cc Hirth engine, which evolved to a 338cc Hirth in 1971, and then to a 336cc BSE engine for 1972 and 1973. These engine variations offered different horsepower outputs, ranging from approximately 20 to 28 HP. Beyond the engine, the Zephyr 340 saw frequent design updates. The cowling, headlights, and seat styles were often revised, with significant changes occurring almost yearly. For instance, the 1970 model introduced a redesigned cowling with dual rectangular headlights, while the 1973 models reverted to a single headlight. The acquisition of Moto-Ski by Bombardier in 1971 also influenced design and component choices in subsequent years. Despite these annual modifications, the "Zephyr 340" designation consistently referred to the engine size within the Zephyr model line, without distinct sub-trims like "Deluxe" or "Sport" being offered.
