    Finally!

    The Yamaheater was the first mod I made to my Apex. Darn near a "must have" on these earlier year machines. Money well spent for sure. The only problem I'm sure you'll run in to is sore cheeks from smilin' so darn much when you mash that flipper and hear that engine purr (roar)!

    Radiator Fan

    I'll take another look when I get home. Good reason to hoist a couple down in the shop.

    Radiator Fan

    I was looking at my '08 LTX and contemplated adding a fan to the radiator. After looking at the online parts fiche it appears it should already have one. My friend's 07 GT is also fan-less. Was that fan only on some models? I'll have to look for an open connection in that area.

    Looking for helmet recommendations.

    I guess after wearing one of these for what seemed like forever I can get used to almost anything!

    Looking for helmet recommendations.

    I have a BV2S and it is definitely a cold weather helmet. The visibility / field of view is excellent. There's no adjustable vents. The air you breath in is pulled into the mask from inside the helmet, and when you exhale it goes out the front of the breathing mask. The only issue I've had, and...

    2013 yamaha nytro hand warmer issues

    I turn the Yamaheater module on when I'm warming up the sled to get the bars up to temp. By the time I hop on I can usually drop them back to a low to mid factory setting and be quite toasty.It seemed like the factory setup could never get past the cold soaked bars when I first start out in the...

    Attak GT EC Ohlins fitting

    Those pins look like 150 series Metri-Pack to me. Can you get a pic of the other side of the connection? If I'm right I can send you the connectors and pins.

    Apex burning oil

    Any smoke / oil smell when it's running? Seems if you're burning that much oil there'd be some obvious signs. How do the plugs look?

    Helmet bluetooth sets.

    I have two sets of those as well. I think I'll give them a try next season in the BV2S.

    Helmet bluetooth sets.

    I've had good luck with the UClear headsets. I use them on my bike and sled. I have a set of speakers installed in each of my helmets (BV2S, HJC BT-Max, 3/4 helmet for bike) and move the module around as needed. I recommend the speakers that have the mic on an extended lead to allow positioning...

    VIP Membership and TY

    I've spent hundreds of dollars on my Nytro and Apex as preventative measures based on advice on this site. Worth every penny. I know if I find myself in a bind in Asscrack Minnesota or Wisconsin a post on here will summon the calvary. A VIP and lifetime membership is a small price to pay to...

    Schmidt Bros. Apex/Rx-1 monster stage 2 clutch kit

    I don't have the full Stage 2 kit, but I put the comfort spring in both my Nytro and Apex. Made a huge improvement with the lower rpm clutch engagement. Easier to move around things or load/unload without having it launch at such a high rpm. I'll probably put the remaining stage 2 parts on the...
