    Oil Change

    When I did my first oil change this year I didn't clean a screen. I did it by the manual. Was very easy and the hardest part was getting the oil filter off. I went to advance auto parts and bought an oil filter strap and had the oil filter off in less than 2 minutes with ease. Just make sure...

    Throttle / Clutch sensitivity

    have her goose the throttle and keep doing it until the sled engages and she wont have to worry about really taking off b/c her thumb wont be on the throttle long enough to hit anyone. At least this is what I do and most of the time I only goose the throttle a few times then coast to where I...

    My dillema with tax return money, any suggestions?

    Thanks for all the responses. I ended up getting more tax money back than I thought. My work stopped paying overtime so when my shift is over I'm out the door and b/c of that I made less money this year but was taxed more on everything else so I got more tax return back. I bought the Curve skis...

    Curve XS ski color for my 07 Nytro ?

    thank you for the picture. I feel much better about my color choice since I just sent my order in just before you posted. Was going to take a gamble. After seeing that picture I think the colors will mach very well. Did you try the ski out yet? how were they? I ride mostly hard packed groomed...

    Curve XS ski color for my 07 Nytro ?

    I'm going to buy some Curve skis hopefully tonight and debating what color to get. I know I could go with the black with red loops but I was thinking about red with black loops. I was wondering how close the red color is to the belly of my 07 back draft Nytro. ? the ski looks like its a very...

    engine rattling sound on 2008 Vector GT with 1000 miles

    I noticed my 07 RS Nytro is making engine noise now and I only notice it at idle. Actually we were riding and my friend heard it and thought it sounded odd. Not sure if this is normal. The sled runs fine and my fluid levels are all fine and I just put in am soil full synthetic at beginning of...

    I don't have slydogs but I read on hear somewhere of someone else having a similar problem and a few guys said to check and make sure you have the proper toe in-out set up.

    RS Nytro Hard steering

    I did check my turning radius by lifting the sled so the skis are off the ground and turning and it turns freely. I'm having a different problem than Homer2210. I didn't mean to hijack your post. I thought we had a similar problem.

    RS Nytro Hard steering

    Thank you. I thought that's how you do it but I think my shock is frozen from riding and I didn't defrost it enough for it to turn. If I get the spanner wrench and adjust the rear front spring will this make a different in the handling? I'm going to get the Curve XS ski's with my tax money so...

    RS Nytro Hard steering

    do you mean hard steering while you're riding or just hard to turn the skis in general? I've noticed that my '07 Nytro is hard to steer when on a packed trail especially going into a turn. It's like the carbide grabs so much I have to muscle the bars to get the skis to turn. After a long...

    Oil Filter Wrench, 2009 Vector

    I had the same issue with my 07 Nytro and I went to Advance auto parts and they had an oil filter strap. I don't remember the exact name of it and it was about $4 and it fits many oil filter sizes. I brought my new oil filter in and asked him if he had anything I can use to get the old one off...

    yamaha oil filter part. did dealer give me wrong one?

    thank you very much. I thought he gave me the wrong part when I checked the filter wrench with the one on my sled and it didnt fit. I'm going to see if I can find the K&N 147 filter since my dealer is closed on sundays. I want to get this done while its warm out. Thank you for responding so fast.

    yamaha oil filter part. did dealer give me wrong one?

    yesterday I went to my yamaha dealer and picked up an oil filter. I told him its for a 2007 yamaha Nytro snowmobile so he went and I bought the part he gave me. I then went to advance auto parts and brought the filter in with me to get the right oil filter wrench. I'm in the process of doing...

    rs nitro oil change

    I'm looking for the same for the oil filter. No luck either and I remember reading about it on this site last year and someone listed the oil filter part number. I have an 07 Nytro and believe it's the same oil filter. What oil filters are you guys using? I need to do an oil change soon.

    Trying to get my handling sorted

    not yet but I don't have many miles on my sled and hadn't pushed it much yet so I haven't hit any big bumps to really test it.

    Rox Risers with tight wire...

    I have the same. I think I could have been fine with the 2 inch riser since I'm only 5'7 and then not have my one wire being tight problem. I love the rise so much though I tilted me bars forward a little so I can sit forward more and be centralized and I feel like it gives me more control. When...

    Rox Risers with tight wire...

    I have the 3.5 inch Rox riser on my 07 Nytro and I'm short by maybe an inch on the parking break wire. Is there anyway to get more slack by adjusting the parking break wire? If I turn all the way to the left it pulls just a little. I looked at all the wire placements and it seams like its in...

    Overheating

    I'm pretty sure theres a safety feature built in to this sled that when it starts to overheat to a certain point it will shut off until it cools a little. I ride to the edge of the trail at times to keep snow in the skid and whenever we stop if we had been riding for a while I'll jump off and...
