    Comment by '20/80' in item 'Singleshot skid with Elka stage 4 shock'

    Interesting, did you have to do any mods to get it to fit right, thinking that's the 146 skid

    Don't think its factory, somebody built that

    Yamaha Vlog #34

    Well the snowmobile division went south under his watch, shame really, must have been hard for him to announce and explain why Yamaha was pulling out of the snowmobile industry, wonder what the new stickers will look like for the 25s

    New apex maintenance

    Check the bearings behind the driven upper and lower, repack them with grease, grease the suspension there's a few grease nipples that need to be done, spin the idlers to check for roughness, I always sprayed undercoating on my suspension and the shock when sitting over the summer, I use rust...

    Yama- moto

    There are a couple of Yamaha dealers in this area selling CF Moto as part of their business for the last year or more, CF Moto makes a decent SXS now, best warranty in the business and their SxS comes with lots of options that you would have to order separate for other brands, not sure on how...

    Yamaha done with sleds

    No I'm not kidding, yes their rear suspension wasn't the best but you could not ask for a better engine RX1 from Yamaha or not, clutches and chaincase were top notch, their gages and some of the electronic tech is top notch also, still trying to figure out all it can do, yes the Apex had some...

    Yamaha done with sleds

    I don't think it was a easy decision, Yamaha was a leader in every snowmobile they made, every engine they made was the best, other OEM's were always legging behind, some of the tech on the Apex is still ahead of some new sleds today, the 3cyl 998T is still the leader and will be for a long...

    Yamaha done with sleds

    What the future holds, and what the rest of OEMs are stacked up against, Yamaha might have seen this in the future and exited focusing on what they are building themselves right now.

    Yamaha done with sleds

    What kinda strikes me funny is we all half to meet emissions whether your running a new snowmobile ATV or SxS, cars, all new big trucks and heavy equipment have to meet tier 4 emissions, not one thing said about all the planes flying over head or ships sailing the sea's, some ship companies burn...

    Yamaha done with sleds

    It will have to be the younger generation that will have to keep this sport alive, but sadly environmentalists, tree huggers, special interest groups and many more are stacking up against this sport, they are painting us all environment and noise terrorists with our 2 strokes and 4 strokes...

    Yamaha done with sleds

    Thinking Polaris may wedge their own new 4 cyl 225 hp 4 stroke engine in a sled, they may even turbo it, Polaris alway's use to put out a hot rod sled, maybe they will, their new 2L 4 cyl with a turbo in a sled would be fast, real fast, they may take over the Winder's title, just a thought

    It’s finally over for Yamaha

    I just hope Yamaha continues with the SXS and ATVs, the Grizzley hasn't really changed much, few things but nothing major, they need a new paint designer in a bad way, the Griz colors are ugly, the new Re-max is a nice buggy though, the wolverine and there sport SXS hasn't changed much either...

    It’s finally over for Yamaha

    If Cats new chassis does not improve sales and more interest Then Textron will cut their sled division also, they better slide a 850 in that chassis and a turbo 4 stroke soon, I give them 2-3 years at most and their done to.
