Aaron, You have probably seen these threads but if not, its all the info I can find on M7's in RX1's; http://www.ty4stroke.com/viewtopic.php? ... sc&start=0 http://www.ty4stroke.com/viewtopic.php? ... arctic+cat The second one has peoples opinions on settings. BTW, did you use the...

Beautiful sled Paul, Thanks everyone for the responses! Now I want a new tunnel too, probably have to settle for an extension. Logically, it makes sense that mounting any skid significantly further forward is going to kill the approach angle (unless you do the full on drop & roll). Does...

Thanks for the reply Trxster, Troy is looking around for a 153 for me but didn't seem very optimistic. Its all kind of iffy there as you have no control over what your getting as far as how used is this stuff? Also have a call in to Cooke city msports. A fellow there (Brandon) was pretty...

C'mon guys, I want to play in the powder too :) I've put the 162 M7 on hold pending more info as to whether a 162 track will fit on it. I am going to buy the track today (162x16x2.3 9979 Camo) its a little heavy but I don't want to change drivers again. Plus cheaper than the Maverick...

Thanks frosty, Looks a little more challenging than anticipated, I'm sure it will be worth it. MT

Those of you that have done the M7 skid changeover, I see a variety of skid lengths being used for a 162" track. If you've used the 153 skid, did you have to use rail extensions? More to the point, will the 162 M7 skid I have ordered be too long for a 162 track? RX1M5, in one post you...

Here is/was one for sale with a 21/39 though perhaps this would not work on a MT; http://www.ty4stroke.com/viewtopic.php? ... everse+kit Appears either these kits were sold with a variety of gearing and /or.... any forward gears can be used??? Still curious, Any reason you can't use...

Frosty, Any pics of your M7 install? I just ordered mine from Troy, should be here in a week or so. It is an M7 162 2005 take off. Still need to get a track as well. With 8 tooth extroverts would I be able to go to 2.5" lugs? What was the verdict on 16" wide tracks fitting in the '03 Mt...

"Ultimately I will probably spring for an M7 skid but this has got to get me through the season. " Correction; 162 M7 skid being shipped this week from Troy at RV. I may not get it installed this season though...

I guess that link doesn't take you straight there. Have to plug in the '03 RX1 MT and click on reverse kit....

Any reason you can't use whatever size bottom (or top for that matter) gear you want with a reverse kit, or are they special with the reverse kit. This link; http://www.yamahasportsplaza.com/pages/ ... fault.aspx shows the kit being sold with either an 18/38, or 18/39, both pretty low...

I wish I knew what my gearing was but suspect it is too high. Not about to break open the chaincase to find out. It does have 8 tooth 2.5p extroverts (I guess 8 is stock anyway) but will still hit 100 on the way up to the real snow. The original owner put a reverse kit on (changes forward...

I believe anything lower than 20/40 would require the 68. Thats getting pretty low, are you also using a 3.0 pitch track with 7 tooth drivers? Not to highjack your thread but along the same lines would 7 tooth 3.0 pitch drivers be lower gearing than 8 tooth 2.52 pitch? MT

Thanks Lincoln, You may have saved me a speared track, pretty scary. I couldn't get a very good look in the dark but could see the side of one of the tips is pretty scuffed. So snow build up likely has nothing to do with the vibration. What if I tighten the front limiters further? That...

Lincoln, The transfer kit was installed when I drilled the holes. I measured the distance between the two stock holes, and went up the same distance (also kept holes in line, angling back slightly). Same on the center bracket. I would suspect the suspension is partially compressed while the...

Pete, I'm making an assumption about the lack of clearance based on the vibration going away on hard pack. It has also gone completely now that I have reverted back to (what is now the center) bolt hole. The track was not touching in the tunnel, just closer than it would be in the upper bolt...

http://www.ty4stroke.com/viewtopic.php?t=22029 The mod involving lowering the suspension on an '03 Mt. by drilling higher holes in the mounting brackets specifically. I've been riding lowered now for several weeks in deep heavy snow, and while I love the handling difference, I had this...

Is this getting you further forward than a 6, or 8" pivot style riser block? Nice looking sled 4strokes, kind of hard to see what this kit does from the pics. I remember seeing detailed pics on this kit somewhere, anybody have it bookmarked? Thanks, Mark

Thanks both for the replies, Couldn't sleep so I got up early and moved both wheels to the inside (cut up the spacers, and used the ruined inner bearing collar as a shim). Looks like hell with just the axle sticking through and nothing on it but worked fine for 25 miles of boondocking. There...

OK to run only two rear idler wheels temporarily? ('03 RX-1 MT.) While boondocking today I came back across my right side rear idler laying in the snow (sheared bearing off). Didn't even notice it was missing, could not feel any difference. Carefully made my way back to the the van (8 miles) on...
