Just Purchased 2016 Viper MTX 153

[Grunt]

Hi All. Just joined this page. New to Yamaha and 4 strokes. Just bought a 16 mtx 153, bone stock, 1400 miles.
Ive been sledding about 4 years and started out with Doo 800 Renegade and last year got a Doo 800 summit, I do alot of bush riding and trail breaking through deep snow to access a series of lakes. Need a sled a bit more capable then the summit and more reliable.
Ive been doing alot of reading on here and looks like a ton of friendly info.
I will be doing a pretty good tear down of the Viper to do maintenance. Oil and filter, chain case. inspect drive and driven shaft bearings, replace or grease as needed. Coolinbg system, New coolant. New plugs. And I really want to see where the starter is on this thing as thats the only thing that scares me a bit having no pull cord for back up. LOL..
Also want to have a good look at steering as there seems to be a fair amount of slop....
And go over the skid, wheels etc....
Cheers to all and happy sledding
