    The rivers were frozen, endless trails were groomed, and the Yamaha tunes played all day long, it doesn't get any better than that! Thanks for the great ride steiner!

    Manitoba TY Ride

    Hi steiner, Lucky I just spotted this. In previous years you always posted updates in the TY Rides/Other Events category.

    Coolant Temp gauge kit needed

    Ulmer used to sell the digital temperature guages also. I have pictures and instructions from that era for a 3 cyl. FX Nytro(2009), would that still apply to your 16 Vector?

    2006 Apex GT Help Separating The Exhaust pipes from Silencer Assembly

    Bleeding Coolant 2007 Apex GT

    Bleed if you want, and adding scratchers can only help on certain days, but don't be too concerned if your overflow tank is constantly just a little bit in the bottom.

    2009 apex shuts off

    Any pattern to this, for instance, always when you pull up to a stop sign, or always at 60 km. an hour? About 5 years ago, my 07 started dying at stop signs, on one mild day, then it never ever did it again.
