    CR10EK VS CR9EK

    You're supposed to get 2-3 hp on the dyno using the cr10ek plugs. I put in CR10EIX iridium plugs and hopefully I won't have to change them for a long time. I bought the sled used and figured I'd change them just for the heck of it. While I'm at it, I might as well get the good iridiums for just...

    mono "CLUNK"

    Neither my sled, nor my fathers clunk at all. Why is that? They both have the mono. I ride hard and take jumps (not as much as I did with my F7), and never hear any clunking. We have the tranfer rods set to the max manual spec.

    f7 forced me to loose confidence HELP!!

    If the F7 owner knows what he's doing you're not going to beat it. My modded '03 F7 had everything done to it but a big bore or nitrous and I never lost a race (didn't pick on nitrous or bored out liter two strokes). Stock 1000 sleds were beatable, though. The mods were cheap compared to...

    apex or nytro xtx

    I'd appreciate it if someone that owns an xtx and has ridden an apex could PM me some comparisons between the apex and the xtx as far as suspension, tight trail driveability, etc. I am just curious. Thanks.

    apex or nytro xtx

    170km/hr = 106mph.....that's pretty slow for speedo speed for an apex.....My sled will go plenty faster than that and that's with my g/f on the back! I'm still stock as far as clutching and gearing are concerned. Next fall I will take care of that. I'd check your sled over....track tension, belt...

    12mm or 13mm sway bar for apex?

    Don't hesitate, get the 13mm. As apltx08 stated, the factory slims down right away after the outside mounting points and the 13mm aftermarket is the same thickness all the way through. It's a worthy investment. I noticed no ride difference after installing it. I did not adjust my shocks either...

    hit a tree, think its totaled

    wow, storage at the dealership... = $500? ouch...I hate dealerships. All of my local Yamaha dealerships suck as well. Port yamaha is supposed to be great, but they're about an hour and 45 minutes away from me. You can bet that if I ever had to take my sled to a dealership (which probably won't...

    Muffler Swiss Cheeze Mod with Pics and Video

    I gutted everything in the muffler and it's still not as loud as my older two strokes were. Barely louder than stock when putzing around town/gas stations. No droning and no complaints from my mother/girlfriend that have ridden with me....trust me, I'd hear it from them it was that loud. How...

    Noobie 06 Apex Owner wondering........

    before changing out suspension, please look around for info on adjusting your current setup. You can move the c-clip up to the 3rd position and rotate the adjustment collar on the shock body to stiffen up the ride if you bottom out a lot. I have posted on this before, but it might also be in the...

    New Heated Visor Plug on 2010 Apex

    That is a good point. I always unplug at the sled so nobody takes my cord!

    Does a 16" tall OEM windshield require support bars?

    My father installed the xtra tall yamaha windshield. No problems, no paint flaking, no regrets. The factory cover still fits fine, and actually no flopping around of the stretchy cover material when trailering....unlike my RTX with stock windscreen under the cover on the trailer. It flops like...

    New Heated Visor Plug on 2010 Apex

    I use the same as Shivesy and have absolutely no problems. I got mine from denniskirk.com but paid about $20, as I couldn't find any on ebay at the time. My cords are for HJC brand, but work with any heated shield that use the rca style connector. My cord is run up through the handlebar riser...

    C&A Ultra Pro Skies

    Love my C&A Razors....increased turning effort is only at very slow speeds and you can bend the handlebars if you try to turn the skies when the sled is completely stopped. I.E. don't try to turn the handlebars if the sled is not moving. While riding on the trails the phrase "point and shoot"...

    I Just took a look at the 2010 model release

    I disagree. If yamaha doesn't fix the bugs and make decent improvements EVERY year, they will lose market share to the other brands. They are not on top right now and will not be if they don't step it up. As said before, these sleds are designed well ahead of time. Small things change before...

    Autolite spark plug for Apex

    Please read on here that the cr10 nkg plugs increase horsepower before running the 9 series plugs. It has been proven on the dyno. Should be in the FAQ section. I gave you good advice on which plugs to run. I'm out. ...
