Ok, so remove the carbs and then take out the pilot screws, clean the pilot exhaust?

ok, yes they were all over the place. One was at 2 turns out, another one 1 3/4, one over 2. They are all at 2 now. So....I tried it again. Seems better. Cold it is fine. but after riding 10 mins or so high idle comes back. I am looking at carb synching next. Thanks again for all the...

thanks! got it loosened. I do see one screw under there. I think it's the only one it could be? The manual just isn't clear as to where it is.

I checked the springs, they look stock. Ok guys, real dumb question. I have to take the float bowls off to get to the pilot screws??? thanks

carb synching When you say synch the carbs you mean with the manometer or similar? I see alot of links out there. What is the easiest/cheapest? thanks everyone for your advice. Time to go to the garage!

The throttle free play was a little tight so I fixed that. However, the problem persisted. I let it warm up for a awhile idleing and it would barely idle. Then took it for a ride and it had the same symtoms - high idle, not coming down. So I adjusted the idle screw to have it idle at 1100...

Hi, I've read alot about others with this problem but still can't seem to fix it. When it is cold, it idles about 1000 rpms. Then when you blip the gas or take it for a sping it won't come down below 2500-3000 rpms. There is also popping i hear from the exhaust when it is running high. Then...

There are 2 bushings at the ends of the sway bar where it goes into the bulk head. I lifted the front end off the ground so the skis were off the ground and did the install. I did not have to compress the front shocks.

Foam prices went up Hello, I just did this mod. The 4 inch high density foam I bought at Joanne's ended up being $30 with a 40% off coupon. Just wanted everyone to know since it's gone up since Otis did his installation. thanks

I too would like some details about popping the bearing seals on/off. thanks

sounds good. might as well just pay and do it right with the pioneer stuff. thanks

Thanks, i'm a little money constrained (read cheap). It's like a $100 difference. thanks again for the advice.

06 Apex GT sway bar - good upgrade from stock 03 sway bar? Hey guys, turns out I can get a 2006 Apex GT sway bar and links to replace the stock 2003 sway bar and links. What size is this one and is it adviseable or just go with pioneers 13mm and 75 mm links? thanks!! :Rockon:

Thanks a lot, guys. I will see how she works in the snow. Kinda hard to tune it on the grass right now! Has anyone put a front wheel kit on it? If so, does it take the regular edge brackets? thanks, rg

Got it done using the jbshocks measurements. We used electrical box plates riveted to the inside of the tunnel for the front mounts. Note when you rivet those in be sure the arm can pivot or you will end up moving your rivets. The rear mounts were about 5 x 5 1/4 inch aluminum secured by...

I want to upgrade my 03 rx-1 front springs to an 05. Is that adviseable or should I just get the straight rate springs from Pioneer Perforance? Or get the 2 shocks with springs from the 05? Thanks in advance!!

thanks, that give me great info. I picked up some simmons skis. Where did you get your mounting plates for the skis? Thanks again.

Apologize if this has been answered. I have a stock 03 Rx-1. Would you do the springs first or the sway bar (and which one)? I am a trail rider, not aggressive at all, just want it to handle like a polaris edge. I have a pro x skid revalved for the trail to replace the rear skid...

Great! Thanks a lot, fellas. :Rockon:

Ok, got the profile updated, thanks for the links. I went thru but didn't really see an answer. People just say pull the airbox off. I assume the boots on the carbs are attached to the airbox itself and it comes off as one piece? I just don't want to tear it apart and break it. Thanks...
