very good deal. clutches are worth 400ish bucks alone, chain case is worth some decent coin 200, seat 200. I would buy it. If the motor is shot though don't waste your time trying to rebuild it because then you will be buried in it. Just take the parts you need and part the rest out

So I ended up doing the deal with the guy. The 2011 was in very good shape. Its studded. The guy actually gave me a receipt and the sled was gone through by the yamaha dealer over the summer (with 0 miles since the service) with a fresh oil change and filter, chain case fluid, and new plugs. I...

I'm starting to get shaky now with all these comments on the exup exhaust. My best friend has a 2011 xtx with 10K miles and he hasn't had any exhaust problems. We do mostly groomed trail 200+ mile days though and the sleds don't take a pounding.

I know the 2011 the guy wants to trade me for has brand new DuPont slides and I have a brand new set of tuner skis in my garage I can throw on the sled. I agree with you regarding the upgrades on the newer models. I really think they fixed alot of the bugs on the newer apexs (exhaust donuts...

It defiantly wasn't abused. Its was just fully serviced by the dealer and it has new DuPont slides.

Thanks for the input . I'm from New Hampshire and similar 06 GT's with the same mileage as mine are going for 3-4K on Craigslist. I don't think I could get 6K for mine. I think if I got 4000 I would be doing pretty good.

So I have to potential to get a 2011 Apex (short track, not the xtx) with 3300 miles in excellent shape for $3000 cash plus giving the guy my 2006 Apex GT with 9500 miles that is also in perfect shape with Simmons skis. (I just dumped $1000 in new parts into my 2006 apex of the summer, all new...

I just order a set of tuner skis with 6" square bars for the inner and outter. I do 100% groomed trail riding. My question is did I order two much carbite?

these apexs suck to get at those fuses you have to taake the aibox off just to get at the which means taking the headlight pod off to access the bolts for the clamps on the intake boots

you really think its dead if the sled started right up the day before on the same battery?

I just did the complete bushing kit on the front end of 2006 apex GT (WHAT A PAIN IN THE #*$&@!!!) and the sled wont start now. Sled had been sitting all summer in my trailer and it started right up when I went to drive it into my garage to do the bushings. After bushing job was completed won't...
