170 mains, 6000', silver holzman springs in carbs

I've had mine go twice, oil everywhere, day ruined Now buddies Apex with MC-Xpress kit did it with 160 Kms.... Have any of you out there had or seen this happen?? PG Yamaha sez they've seen a couple do this but don't have a solution. I assume it's blowby on the rings, or, what else could it...

weight 2006 apex mtn no fuel fresh out of crate 637lbs

Check the dealer's work?? They don't build them, they just set them up... As for the spark plug thing-have you looked under the hood on a high performance sports car or superbike lately?? Forget about it, leave it alone and ride! My '03, 04 and '05 NEVER FOULED A PLUG. Welcome to Yamaha

confirmed...1st place in 700 and 800 class

I have a friend in Edmonton who works with the fellow (@ Dow Chemical) that won. I just want to get the results officially, and see what class he's in, and what the competition was......

I wonder if anyone out there has (knows where to find) the official results??- I searched the net with no success. We heard from someone who attended that there was a very fast stock ATTAK winning its class(es)....

My reply reflects changes made to be able climb EXTREME vertical slopes, but they sacrifice trail ride comfort. These changes are for EXTREME VERTICAL CLIMBER ONLY (when you MUST outclimb the competition in very vertical situations).

this whole scenario proves how brainwashed people can get- the Vector is within 9 lbs of the RX-1 yet people react like its a totally different machine

some people are pressing the rails straight, also moving the rear sissor back 4-6" (yes a lot of work) I think thay're will be a "limiter strap" type of kit available for the rear sissor next year......from the aftermarket. A complete supension change (Holz, Elholm or the very expensive M-10...

Red-Line in Grande Prairie have done lots-both Bender and MC-Xpress. They're good with clutching and set-ups too...... 780-532-4313

Has anyone experienced this?? New Camoplast 156" X 3.00" pitch track (supposedly lighter, but NOT) with Wahl Bros 3" 7 tooth drivers. Lost 20 MPH track speed and have horrible vibration. Everything aligned etc, just can't figure it..... Any Ideas/ Stories????

Moose- you can't run a spercharger without an intercooler- the supercharger runs all the time, and the intercooler gets very hot. Luckily the Apex airbox is designed to be replaced by an intercooler ! (smart design)

Banjo- I agree that all Dealers should "go to bat" for customers. Trouble is....the stack of engine warranty claims for the RX-1 is VERY SMALL. Each claim is put under a microscope by the Japanese; especially in relation to dependability of a new product like the RX. The downside (and you know...

Big Dog- I may sound like a broken record here, but JET UP- it needs more fuel! I run 170's and my buds run anywhere from 150's to 180's (up to 17Lbs Boost)

broken RX- PM me- I know of another IDENTICAL failure that WAS covered by Yamaha as far as I know- I'll give you the person's and the dealer's Name and phone number.

The thing to note here is that Mountain Machine weights are lied about the worst. Flatlanders may not be as concerned about weight. The other thing is that in discussions Yamaha's RX-1 is confused with the RX-1 Mountain. The 2005 Vector is a good example- the weight was spun pretty hard in...

BRX1- funny thing is: Polaris actually believes that they are going to be the next Harley Davidson....Corporate rumors are that they intend to intensify their motorcycle business!

A BIGGER TRACK is always better. My buddy had a 162X16X2.31 on a STOCK 2005 RX-1 this year--that thing was FRIGGIN' AWESOME! Simple physics- less weight per square inch. The tipped up rails make them turn easier and feel shorter on the trail. Attak is only 7lbs lighter- and 30 HP less-Don't...

The production tunnel is ONE PIECE and has NO Rivets. There is no rear heat exchanger, there is a radiator on the RHS of the steering hoop with an electric fan. The Lightweight seat took $90,000 to develope (!), and will have nice storage. Also, wet weight full of fuel is LESS than the other guys.
