Just turn the idle screw down just so slightly. I mean barely any movement. Once the rpm drops to normal you are good to go. Mine does this as well. Carbs can't adjust for big swings in air temps.

I used Gorilla glue epoxy.

You won't know until you take a peak. I thought I had something more serious going on but it turned out to be two donuts blown to pieces. I bought new Yamaha donuts and moved on with life.

I put LED in my sled. Everyone says Im way easier to see in the day time. They generate no heat so the light assembly gets frosted up by the end of the day. No idea if HID would fix this. No issues with original but they get pretty warm.

I go over the reverse max side and never had an issue. I'm sure there is a reason why they have the max at a lower side but sometimes its hard to hit the line spot on. Next morning I find Ive gone over.

That engine is done for. Pull it and replace it with a used one.

I've always ran the Fram PH6017A. I change my oil and filter every year. I cut my filters open and have no issues to report.

Prices still seem high in Manitoba. Dealers have lots of stock and still have big stickers on them.

I can't say I'm a huge fan of the stickers this year. Ruby red doesn't do it for me either.

I'm thinking of replacing my Fox Float front shocks. I'm looking at a few used shocks but I want to be certain on what I should buy. 2007 Vector shows 8ES-2376A-CO OR -60 2005 RAGE SHOWS 8ES-2376A-00 OR -30 Whats the ending of the part number mean? -60 vs -30???

Lake Winnipeg. I was up flying last Saturday.

One of my other hobbies....

I'm in Las Vegas right now for work but when I get home I'll get a straight edge out.

That is some crazy miles on an original belt! This is a picture of my first belt from many years ago. It was old and rotten. It blew up near the North West Angle.

Interesting. I wasn't sure if it was a belt issue or an alignment issue but it just could be cause of miles on it. I've never had a belt blow clean through. Just the tops come off. I have always ran the 8DN belt.
