Congrats on your new to you Viper RTX. They are a fun sled. Let the moding begin.

I agree, have had them on my sidewinder for a few years now and time to do the Viper. Bell crank bushings have been done for a few years as well. Super nice products from Val @ Mainway.

I knew what you meant from your first statement. Good luck with your new to you renegade.

That would be a good set up for off trail riding, not one for trail riding. I like my skis planted, as in zero ski lift...period! It might look cool to lift your skis off the snow at will, but that equals a very poor handling sled. No thanks!

I would say no, my coupled 129 Viper suspension is way different than my coupled 137 sidewinder suspension.

I would say it's time to find a new dealer. Not acceptable.

Nothing out there to upgrade too. What guys are doing is when the bushing starts to wear is upgrade to a better bushing...pretty cheap as well. Shift pads are plastic stock, DMC makes a brass shift fork pad. Plastic does get brittle over time and will break, brass is forever...

That would be the LTX LE, they have the best shock package.

I have a QS3'r center shock from my 18 winder 137 if that helps you out. It will bolt right in. Has a 160# spring on it currently.

We have 4 Vipers in our group, all have the latest flash. We run 87 mostly but sometimes 91 is all there is. I can say all 4 Vipers have never had the dreaded starting issues, on occasion you will have it, but it's not very often.

2 trips, 12 days of riding and just over 2400 miles for the season. Split time on the Viper and sidewinder with the Viper getting the most love this season at 1400 of those miles.

Still have this trailing arm from an 02 Viper. This happened in 2004 about a mile from the half way haven coming from Wawa. I hit a rock protruding out on the trail that was covered with snow. Holy crap was that a ride. Trailing arm was broke in half and lower a arm was snapped as well. The...

Screen shot of my season on the GPS.

No not the trail quiet muffler, it would pass a db test forsure.

The trail quiet muffler.

Rich, Performance??? so hard to say, a couple of ponies is hard to tell by the seat of the pants. I took it off because I found out that I don't like sound louder than stock.....lol must be getting old. I wish the stock muffler on the Viper was as quite as the sidewinder muffler. I just enjoy...

Don't forget to service your shocks. Look at those torsion spring clips, your probably due with your milage.

I have one as well, like viper dean said they are very well built. Sound is louder than stock when on the flipper but not obnoxious, pretty tame when cruising. It has a great tone to it and no drone.

So I ran the same redline belt for it's second season, it has close to 5,000 miles on it. It will now be a spare as I'm sure it is still in good shape.

Sounds like to me your over filling.
