    Slick mirrors for your Dumbo ears.

    I measured them. They are actually 2" mirrors. Thanks. They are just enough to see the lights behind you. The housings are plastic and the lenses popped out with a little effort.

    Slick mirrors for your Dumbo ears.

    Hi guys, I wanted to share this tip with you. I added mirrors to my dumbo ears (Wind deflectors) on my Nytro XTX. I went to the local car parts store and picked up two round 1 1/2" blind spot mirrors. I popped the lens out of the plastic housing and drilled 4 holes in the housing like a button...

    Bottom of Oil Tank Screw Size?

    Like SJ said, Steel bolt vs aluminum tank, Steel bolt usually wins. Drill and re tap the tank a size larger and you will be good to go.

    and there goes the LIMITER STRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yamaha won't do a thing for you. They wanted to replace some parts on my skid but they were no different than what came stock on it. With 27 miles on it the first strap broke, 300 the second. So I took matters into my own hands. I warned everyone on here to take a look at their straps but I got...

    Hand Warmers Quit On 2010 XTX

    Here is the best tip I can give you for the XTX handwarmers. Find someone on this site that has an 06 set of Apex bars with the grips installed on them. replace your stock bars with the the Apex bars and be done with it. The Apex bars have a little more diameter which I like. Direct plug in (If...

    Fully clipped track?

    For what it is worth I changed my first set on my XTX after about 300 miles because they wore down fast but not through to the rail. The next set wore down just as fast and I kept riding it and they stopped wearing at a certain point. They are very thin about 12 inches behind the front side...

    XTX Limiter straps torn

    On page 2 of this forum. I have a simple diagram. What this does is make the strap more rigid so it doesn't fold over as easy and get chewed up by the lugs when the suspension collapses.

    Yamaha Billet wheels junk?

    I put a set of the Tuning Fork Billet wheels on my XTX. This weekend I was going over the sled before a ride and I see both small wheels on one side have dents in them. I see they discontinued the Tuning Fork wheels on their website. Has anyone else had an issue with them? I know they will tell...

    carbide question-will they fit

    I don't think so. I have an 01 SRX and they have a different bolt pattern than my 09 Nytro.

    Heed the warnings boys

    Sounds like is time to get a lawyer and take leagal action if indeed it was caused by this bolt falling out. Especially because it is recalled. I would think you would be eligible for some compensation and a new sled.
