    Pure gas, non ethanol locations

    Good advice posted above.... Regular fuel that has ethanol is not bad if used up frequently and not let sit over the summer untreated. I use pure gas ( we call it rec fuel here) in all my small power equipment too but 5 gallons last me a long time to use. Its pricey to use on a larger volume...

    Coolant Change

    If you change fluid... My 07 apex had the bleed port on the original rear crossover tube, It is a great way to bleed out air upon refilling as well as draining the old fluid. The best way to refill is to drain at what ever point you choose but upon refill jack the front of the sled up about 18"...

    Best/favorite groomed trail track

    My take... If your on a groomed trail all the time 1-1/4" studed seems fine to me, now what track?? The ripsaw is a great track (had one on my apex with 15,000miles) If you get into longer lugs and still want to stud the studs are going to get long and you could have clearance issues. Just a...

    How are you guys getting the muffler back over the Y pipes?

    Make sure the gaskets are not curled up and are straight. Then make sure the pipe that fits into it is dang near polished smooth. I use a scotch bright pad or fine sandpaper like 220' Yea a little lube of some kind will help but I never needed any. Also make sure there are no sharp edges on pipe...

    Apex with a m-20

    Ya.... I never bought my m-10 for the "launch" I read a lot about the characteristics of the m-10/ m20 before buying and it was about the ride not the weight transfer. Hum?

    Apex with a m-20

    I have one on my 07 and LOVE it... I Know its a big dollar item but I think of all the time and money spent on the stock pro-active (07 rtx) skid and I could have been half way home on buying the M skid! Take your time on install and follow directions on tuning and you will be happy. It was the...
