New XTX are going for ~8400 at a dealership local to me on eBay. $8200 used seems like a pretty good market price if you're selling.

I'm probably going to head to the west central part of the state for a day trip Saturday or Sunday. They have a pretty good base in the St. Cloud area and its pretty close. Waldoch has the the Yamaha Demo Days going Saturday morning so I figure I'll toss a leg over some of the other models...

Correct spelling? What next, no mullets? :-o

I saw a form recently and dealer cost is half of list. I'd negotiate and shop around.

Froze up again. Heated the key with a lighter, the key turned and nothing. Waited 20 minutes, gave it one last chance and I was able to put 40 miles on it. I haven't sprayed WD-40 into the ignition slot, just a light coat on the key. I'm going to call the dealership service department to...

Hi, I've got about 60 miles on the XTX and it seems that the power engagement has changed from a stop. I slowly build up the revs and the clutch grabs around 4200-4600 RPMs. That seems a bit high and now when I stop I often notice smoke coming out from under the hood and a burnt rubber smell...

I guess I don't really care until she can't fit in her fat jeans anymore. Even then, its probably better not to say anything.

Here's another one with Miss January's bra on the handlebars. Seriously dudes, I'm going to have to start referring to this sled as a "she".

Now that I'm past that little obstacle here's a photo from today's ride.

Check that, fire bad, WD-40 good. Guess I'll just keep the small can in the handbag. ;>

Fire good.

Yesterday I was very excited to get out for my first ride on the XTX. I trailered it half an hour out of the city for a shake down ride on a lake and trails. I took the cover off, put the key in and could only get it to turn to the on position. Needless to say, I was very happy to be at the...

Thanks to those with constructive suggestions. It looks like my Skinz Pro Series cover isn't going to arrive for another month so I'm going to go with a Yamaha Deluxe cover instead. I guess the reviews have been positive on the Wind Shear Hand Protective covers so I'll order a set of those...

After some experimentation it appears that helvetica CY bold ~180 point is pretty close. The letters on the sled are 1-7/8" tall with 3/8" line width.

Hi, I need to get some registration numbers on my sled and would like to place them right under the YAMAHA on the pan. Anyone know what font they use or have any luck with a close match? Thanks!

Hi, I have a credit on parts and accessories with my dealership. I have an XTX with the tall windshield. I was hoping I could get your recommendations on about $300-500 worth of accessories or parts. I think the Designer Combination Tank Bag might be a good start to get some storage and a map...

I keep reading things like, "if you ride it like you're supposed to" or "once you get the hang of it". What is meant by this? Hanging off it it leaning, somehow using the engine braking to slow down before turns, or what? The imagination runs wild, thanks!

Blue on Saturday
