This advertisement, has to be without question, the worse piece of crap to ever come out of any snowmobile manufacture. It even out tops the Polaris BS that was put out as they share was sinking out of sight. Pitiful, Pitiful, Pitiful. Try using the fuel calculator and you can't win! If you get...

How about some pics of the new led brakelight in the running and braking position. Is it brighter then the old one? Also any pics of the instrument cluster with the sled running. Thanks for the pics posted thus far!!!1

I think you can get an Apex clean deal for 8600-8900 with no accessories. Most yamaha dealers will discount the price of a new sled fairly deeply if they don't have a trade to take in. The problem will be with selling your Cat. Considering all the left over new sleds around the used market price...

Great pictures! Pls keep them coming! I am told mine may be in later this week. The handle bar pad looks a little disappointing - I am going to try and put on a regular blue RX-1 pad. I am pretty sure it fits - however, it will block the view of the bottom of the speedo slightly if your not over...

If the magazines can rate the sleds - then we should be able to rate the magazines. Personally while snowgoer used to be a good magazine - it is a rag now and I rate it dead last! Snowgoer has always been influenced by the manf and will say whatever it takes to get advertizing. By mid season the...

I believe the monoshock spring mount can also be adjusted to three positions. (You have to take the shock out of the suspension) Comes in middle - there isa stiffer setting and a softer setting. My friend adjusted his after the spring relaxed alittle to get a firmer ride.

Sniper - while your paying a 1000 less for a used sled with 1500 miles on it- consider for 1000 more you could have a brand new 05RX-1 with warranty. Unless the used sled had the extended warranty, I would think paying the extra would be worth it. Also consider that Yamaha will warranty the...

Do they still have the Dzus fasteners on the hood and side cowling? I was also curious if they came with a handlebar pad? What does the front W arm on the suspension look like - I heard they were going to beef that up as last year some were breaking. Hope you don't mind answering all these...

Many dealers were selling brand new 05 RX-1 with reverse for $7500 last spring just to get rid of them. My guess is there are lots of 05's around with reverse that dealers would take 7000 for just to move them. This brings down the price they will offer you for a used one. My quess is that they...

Are these numbers of production sleds or proto's. To my knowledge no one has yet received the final production version sled to test. I think we have to wait to the production version is available to test to find the true numbers.

Well today I took the advise being heard most often here and bought a ski-doo modular in dark blue to match my new apex. Got a good price on an 05 leftover too since sled season has not yet arrived. This is the first Bombardier product I have had in about 30 yrs - so well see this winter. I...

Personally, I think I would go for a block heater over the battery heater. If the block is even somewhat warm the whole engine turns over easy so the battery isn't taxed. Keeping the oil somewhat warm also prevents dry startups. Personally mine started at -25F which is as cold as it ever gets...

I have an 06 accesory catalog and 06 windshields are not in it except for Vector and RX-1. Nothing on Apex or Attak. First place it will likely show is website which has been incomplete all summer.

I asked the rep about turbos and he implied like "why would they". He said the 150hp of the Apex would keep up or beat everything out there including the Mach. He said if they feel they need HP they would go to a bigger displacement 1200 or 1300 normally aspirated engine rather than a turbo...

fourndog - my dealer gave me one when I ordered an apex. There is really not much new in it and actually the 05 book offers more stuff. I don't think Yamaha has designed all the accessories yet - like windshield, colored add ons. It is 90% clothing.

I had a chance to demo ride a 06 Apex yesterday in Florence NY. It was a bright sunny day. I noticed the speedometer seemed harder to read than on my RX-1. There is a shadowbox now around the speedo for styling. This sometimes shaded the digits and made them more difficult to read. I also don't...
