Take some pics and share it with the group. Belt may not be sitting at the right level on the secondary. How many miles on it? May be time for a replacement.

I just turned 49 in December...feeling the difference as well. For the little riding I do (little time to get out) I was either going to get out of the sport all together or just try and make this a little more comfortable. Really should have done it a long time ago.

Here's the details from the foam I purchased. 2" thick 14x24" 2.5 (51#) Rode all day on Sat and it was a huge upgrade, very comfy and finally came home without sore knees. Took a bit of time to get used to sitting higher.

http://ty4stroke.com/threads/raised-my-seat-by-2.146576/ Figured you would want to see how I raised my seat on my 06 Apex, figured some of you would want to look at this for your RX as it has the same issue!

I said the same and made my own, much cheaper. http://ty4stroke.com/threads/raised-my-seat-by-2.146576/

I only peeled it back to the storage compartment and I didn't see any straps? After I installed it we lost all our snow...but sitting on it in the garage its much better than stock

Also roughly where the Dremel is sitting there was a bracket that was riveted to the hanger on the pipes. I didn't have enough room to push the pipes back to remove and replace the donuts so I had to drill those out. Just take your time, not hard but it's time consuming. Prob a good idea to...

I'm also in Ontario and got them from Sledtoyz. Check Kijiji as I believe there was someone selling some. I also needed a number of stainless rivets seeing a number of them in the tunnel had either gone missing or had too much play in them. You will also need a lot of patience and loosening oil.

Here it is stapled and installed. Looking forward to seeing the difference, but we are losing snow pretty fast.....

Loosen the limiter strap as much as possible.

Here it is, just needs to be stapled. Didn't have 1/4" so off to the store. This was one of my test fits so I still had some bumps to smooth out. I'm sure it won't be as good as the WRP, but for $30 bucks should be much better. Just installed it and it looks and feels much better, I will...

Been looking at the WRP seat but based on exchange and money invested into other sports I couldn't justify spending that much. So I did some research and purchased a piece of 2" thick 14x24" 2.5 (51#) foam from a local mattress supplier. They charged me $20 bucks for the piece and another...

Thanks, I will try that next time out. Did like the plush feeling I was getting in the smaller bumps but had a hard time keeping the rear end down in the larger stuff.

I am in the same boat and decided seeing I have the Powermad hand guards that I am going to purchase their mirror kit that bolts onto the end. Looks like they are approx $25 bucks at Royal. Another option I see are some people that have a mirror strapped to their gloves, but I wanted a more...
