    Get skid back in RX1

    Thank you. I had the front boot removed. Made it a lot easier with the rear removed. Now, how do I get the rear bolts to line up? I have 2 ratchet straps around the spring trying to compress but I’m still off by 1/2” and I can’t compress the spring any more.

    Trade in RX1 on what?

    I have a 2005 RX1 with 6000 miles. Where I live it's mostly trail riding and the weight of this sled makes it a little difficult to maneuver. Any recommendations for a sled that can still get up and go but is easy to maneuver through our tight trails? Obviously this is a yamaha forum but I'm...

    13mm sway bars...are they necessary

    I just picked up an '05 RX1 and have been gathering a lot of info on this site. I've seen a lot of people say to upgrade to the 13mm sway bar to keep the ski's from lifting. The previous owner said he never had that problem with the sled. We don't have enough snow to ride yet but I want to be...
