I just received a pair of metal bushings from simmons. All the measurements are within the expected tolerance of the stock 04 Warrior and 05 RX1 bushings!!!!

jtssrx: From my experience you are right on for a stock RX1, a stock Z and a turbo RX1. I also feel that the turbo is limited far more buy traction than by power. On true hard packed the turbo will be much faster than the other two it never runs out of legs. :ORC I think the track will blow...

jtsrx the Z lost compression on the pto side cylinder. I am running a Bender rear mount that I ordered last spring and my friends installed while I was laid up. It has low compression pistons and head gaskets. I have 1750 miles and no problems as yet.

Its is what the other guy says when you pull him in. :Rockon: The second time this year. Tom a group of Yamahas flew by south of Houghton Saturday morning while we were towing. Was it the TY ride? Our group had 5 Rs1's and two Doo we were hoping to meet up with you guys!

This week end an 05 Z pushed my turbo RX1 in with a rope.

The ripsaw track will ride on and be supported by the lugs. As the lugs flex you get the unstable feeling. A small amount of studs will eliminate the problem. Dave

I have 1400 miles on my turbo and we have 1500 on the wifes stock. Both have simmons skis and are fantastic. I couldn't dream of anything better. :Rockon:

We checked all seven of our groups and they all test at 60/40 anti-freeze to water. :Rockon:

We found that the 05 will beat a 04 handly in most conditions where traction is an issue. Example the two sled run about the same on grass and from a rolling start on hard pack all other conditions the 05 is gone!! :Rockon:

The diehard M10 guys in our group can't beleive how well the mono glides over the bumps. The say when they follow the mono it seems to float and they are bouncing around.

Wonder the above comment is the reason Dan froze his account on this form. He has two Z's he is testing but he also has two 05 RX1's for his family. Stick around for we would miss you!!

fxr I am about 200 lbs nude. I started at preload 4 and the clicker adjuster at 3. It was great. I then set the preload to 3 and the clicker at 9 and got a simular ride (great). I will leave it at this setting because it gives me more range of adjustment with the clicker. The transfer is set...

We weighed sleds on a certified scale with the following results: :ORC We weighed six 05RX1's and they were 566 to 572 lbs. They were ready to ride except for gas. They all had about 1 gallon of gas. My 04 Warrior, returned to stock, was 624 lbs after subtracting the weight of the...

Sorry it was 350 miles not 3500 miles!

We put a 1/3 or half can in each gas fill just like we did when we added isopropal. If we have a machine that burns oil we add one can to the gas, full tank, and one can to the oil. We then run (drove) most of the gas out, then we change the oil and filter. The oil is then very black. We...

Everyone we knew that was burning oil stopped when they used Seafoam on a regular basis. We also felt that clutching with a maintance RPM above 10,200 was a major factor. Dave

Most of our group ran 0-40 Amsoil last year with great results. Cold starting wis very good. Some ran 5-30 Mobile 1 with simular results. This year we are changing over to 0-30 Yamaha's new oil mainly for avaliability. We all are running the water heater by Yamaha this season.

The leak down on a 13,000 mile plus sled was less than 5% on all cylinders and no oil consumption. He broke it in as follows: Drove easy for first 20 miles with short burst of full throttle. Then longer bursts of full throttle for 100 miles. After that it was drive nornal avoiding full...

Convert you better change your by line to reflect the new status. My wife also felt sorry for me, like yours did, and said I could ride the turbo so I can keep up. Our sleds are both all flat black (stealth), and no primer gray bottom panels.

srxtwins, Most of our guys will be Polaris and Doo riders. The Yamaha part of our group would love to meet up with you guys but we have to make compromises to get along. We will try to meet up before we swing west around Winnipeg. The trip just keeps expanding. The people the boys talked to on...
