    2023 Spring Order Sidewinders

    I ordered 2 last year and got neither . It appears just like last season Canada is not getting all they purchase, but the U.S. is !!!!! They could have switched that up this year , but nooooooooo ! Is it possible that is , because they make more on a U.S. sled than in Canada ??

    2023 Spring Order Sidewinders

    I have become sold on the electronic shock system on my SRX , which is only available on the SRX . If the LTX LE EPS came with it , I would have opted for that model . Atleast the SRX now has the EPS .

    2023 Spring Order Sidewinders

    apparently you will know in 48 hours , if your reservation has been accepted . Still no guarantees , so be careful and maybe don't sell your current sled until ???? The new one shows up .

    Part number help

    If it was lower hole or no riding , I would try the lower hole , until a proper fix option can be done . I stuck a piece of bolt in the egged out part and tightened up and rode for the rest of the season . Then do what I did and buy a new sled to ride and get the parts to fix the old sled ...

    Still waiting on your 22's?

    I complained in November to my dealer ,and are poised with my dealer to possibly pull the trigger on an EPS version tomorrow . I told my dealer I EXPECT some kind of compensation/consideration (from him or Yamaha Canada as it cost me $3,000 more for the SRX I found) for having 2 sleds cancelled...

    Still waiting on your 22's?

    Derek Do you have a job ? 4600 in less than 2 months is a full time job in itself . I thought I was doing pretty good with 3500 klms. of almost all day rides with the exception of a 2 day break in ride up in Kap , when I got my 22 SRX at the end of the first week of January . The only...

    2023 Sidewinder LE with power steering....

    Maybe the 700 red head was lighter because it had a single pipe ? not sure as those aftermarket triple pipes were pretty light using thinner metal . I put the Aaen triples on the red head (those aftermarket triple pipes were pretty light using thinner metal than stock ,I believe) ,with a long...

    Can torsion springs be re sprung ?

    There is a 5 position billet aluminum block available , for those who really need more torsion spring preload.

    Quick question

    I twice thought it was my springs and turned out the nitrogen had leaked out ! I agree , get the shocks done and then look at the springs . The springs should be ok or rebendable , unless you have been riding a lot with discharged shocks .

    Hygear twisted springs

    learning more .... So you can change the main spring preload by adjusting the crossover spacer ? And then set the soft coil to address the small bumps ?

    Food for thought/ 2023&2024 yamacat

    I don't believe Cat was building sleds for those engine makers at the time . I can't believe that Yamaha is making 10 X's or even any times more sleds than Cat . I will believe it when I see it . Maybe 10 X's the number of 998 powered sleds , that might be possible . If Cat were to break even...

    Hygear twisted springs

    Sooooooo. It appears from the video in the press , The Twisted soft spring does not bind when it closes , or transfers to the main spring exclusively . I assume not binding is a good thing for any spring ? It appears even when you put more preload , the soft spring still does not bind , as the...

    Hygear twisted springs

    I understand what you are saying , as I suspected that to be the case . But , based on your explanation the Twisted spring appears to still have a lot more usable softer rate available , as it transitions to the stiffer spring only . Does the soft spring , on the twisted spring ,have to coil...

    Best Clutch Kit for Sidewinder

    A stock SW must have a stock clutch set up to be stock !:):):):) When I had the Yamaha clutching update done to my 17 , which I believe was the helix and arms , it made a noticeable difference in spooling up .That was the case for 2 weeks , until I decided to get the 240 tune , which upped the...

    2023 Sidewinder LE with power steering....

    Great read . My start as a Yamaha enthusiast was on a 82 SRV . I have never to this day owned a blue Yamaha sled . Blue is a slow colour ! Can't imagine how much faster those SRX's of the 2000 +/- era could have been if they were red / White and Gold !!! Like my 22 SRX !

    Can you adjust the straps without taking the skid out ?

    Without my son here to help me , I have become a semi useless tinkerer , unless there is unobstructed access to the job at hand ! (like track tightening ) Seeing as my only possibility of more riding this year , will be the Cochrane to Geraldton corridor , I will probably leave the straps till...
