    Thunder Products (Big Venom Viper kit) with Heavy Hitters

    First ride of the season today. Finally got to test run the big venom kit and (gates) 8dn size belt that I installed over the summer. So far I am very happy with the performance. The guys at thunder products had it dialed in right out of the box. It pulls harder and longer. Makes much better...

    Thunder Products (Big Venom Viper kit) with Heavy Hitters

    I used hardware store washers stacked with the thinner Yamaha washers. The hardware washers were .045 thick. Make sure the washer outside diameter is smaller than the machined surface area so it sits flat.

    Thunder Products (Big Venom Viper kit) with Heavy Hitters

    I've installed the carbon fiber. 40c4340. (8dn length) I've added shim washers and the belt deflection looks good.

    Thunder Products (Big Venom Viper kit) with Heavy Hitters

    I just installed a Big Venom kit on my stock ltx se. No studs. Will the factory belt work okay? I've heard some guys are switching to gates carbon fiber. I'm sure this has already been discussed at some point but I didn't want to weed through 40 pages of threads

    Used venture

    I'm helping my buddy shop for a 2 up for him and his lady. We found an 07' rs venture with only 40 miles on it for $5,000. Is this a fair price??

    Work Stand

    I have cut a piece of 2"x6" lumber that spans across the under the lower control arms to support the front. A block under the belly pan would work also

    Work Stand

    I picked up this 1,000 lb motorcycle stand at Harbor Freight. On sale now for $299. I think it's the best equipment investment I've ever made. It's a back saver. Wish I would have bought it 20 years ago...

    Clutch bolt torque specs

    I'll be installing a Thunder Products Big Venom clutch kit this weekend. I'm looking for the torque specs on all of the primary and secondary bolts. Can someone get me these specs or direct me to a link that has these?

    Steering help

    I'm not trying to solve everything with skis and carbides. I spent the end of last season(350 miles) tuning the suspension, trying to get it to turn better with the stock 4" carbides. Even tried running the front skid spring with zero preload and the rear fully loaded. I felt a little more ski...

    Thanks all for the input. I'm going to try the 75$ carbides first before I drop $500 on new skis. The push isn't terrible, I just need it a little better.

    Again, I don't plan on ever studding the track. I'll be trying the same, 4" carbide outside, 6"inside. Hopefully it helps. My last sled was a Rev so im used to that twitchy, over-responsive steering. Thanks

    Steering help

    Love my 2015 LTX SE but it likes to push in the corners. All stock. 137". Stock skis. 4"'carbide. No studs. Limiter strap is up 2 holes. Front float shocks at 70 psi. Here's the question. Will 6" carbide help get rid of the push? Is that too much carbide without studs?
