    Possible Switch??

    Nope! I have WRP seats and risers on my Apex and my Nytro. +2" on both seats and +5" riser on the Apex and a +3" riser with OFT relocate on the Nytro. I'm 6'3" and can pop up and stand on the Nytro with almost zero effort . Stand for LOONG periods of time, and I'm 60 yrs young! Apex, not...

    Time for new slides,. Dupont worth the money?

    I have them on all 3 of my sleds, including my Apex with an M20 Airwave in it. Don't worry one minute about slider wear anymore. IMHO, well worth the investment.

    09 Nytro xtx code 84

    At the top of this forum is the FAQ section for this sled. Codes are listed in the sub header. Your code is for the TORS system. Adjust the throttle cable until you have the correct slack in the throttle and it will usually cure this. If not, it may be a bad upper or lower TORS switch., or even...

    Recommend a sled for me

    Vector LTX with power steering. The MOST overlooked sled in Yamahas lineup. Great ride, fuel mileage, performance, this sleeper is a phenomenal trail sled. I've ridden my buddy's 14 a bunch of times and was amazed how capable it is... completely stock!

    Did I buy too much sled???

    WRP is the seat brand and is owned now by Seat Concepts. I've replaced seats on my 02 Viper, a Boss, on my 06 Attak, a mountain Apex,a Boss and another from Canada, my 11Apex with a WRP, and my 08 Nytro with a WRP. EVERY ONE was an improvement over stock and made the sled much more comfortable...

    Bagger Trip

    What Steiner said. 28,000+ miles on 2 sleds with the Yamaka tank bag. Never an issue. I used the sport bags, tank bag and ziplock freezer bags in the nose on my 06 for every bagger trip I've taken. Packed for a week lol!

    New Sled 2020 sidewinder

    And they are bending you over on the extended warranty as well. Port Yamaha will sell you that at a much better price. It is a YAMAHA warranty that is good at any dealer. You don't have to purchase it at your local dealer. Sounds like a real great place to trade....NOT!

    Throttle Modification

    I rolled the throttle down on my wife's Venture so it is squeezed in the crotch of the thumb. Puts your hand in a more neutral position on the bars as well. She had carpal,tunnel in both hands and couldn't reach the throttle without pain. Just something to try before spending time and money on...

    Thinking about an upgrade - need advise

    Have you ridden a fuel injected Venture. My 09 rides as well as any sled I've ridden, and with the upgrade to EPS, it's very easy to steer. I've had kids, my wife, and on one trip gave an emergency ride of around 80 miles to a 180 lb. teenage r. Don't sell the Venture short without trying one.

    '12 XTX suspension advice...

    I rode a Redbeard's Apex with the complete M20Airwave/Air Assault setup. I've owned an Attak and knew the compromises of the Monoshock skid. Durability is important to me as well. I've broken every component on every Yamaha skid I've owned. Hell, I broke an ExpertX skid! This suspension is VERY...

    Remove engine brake reduction

    Stubby is correct. At the TY Preview ride in 07, they touted the EBRS very loudly. I personally have been over the handlebars on my 06 Attak too many times to count. Riding my Nytro off trail is SO much safer with EBRS. Twist your secondary 10 degrees tighter to speed your back shift.

    running hot attak gt

    Sorry, I missed that a Maim. Check the fuse for the fan, and the relay as well. I had my relay stick on AND off. They will also create an ice dam in the front of the tunnel and that doesn't allow the front exchanger to get any snow on it. Last resort, do the rear exchanger. My 02 Viper...

    running hot attak gt

    Test your coolant. Many 06-07 models were delivered with straight glycol. Get it properly diluted and I'll bet your issue goes away.

    Team Fast 136" M20 - 2011+ Apex XTX (Version 2.0)

    I'll tell you right now, trail #3 on Wednesday afternoon was as rough as I've ever seen it. EVERY dollar this setup cost was worth it for just this scenario. 55-60 mph and the bumps just disappear! For MILES! Thanks again Joe for EVERYTHING ! I personally rode almost 1200 miles and 5 straight...

    Apex XTX - Elka stage 4 setup

    Nope! Exhaust flanges cracked on the EXUP and I rode the Nytro the rest of that season. Apex now has Airwave M20 and Assault Air front shocks. I rode them for 1 day with the setup that I purchased them with. Been 3 or 4 yrs now lol!
