Hi all, Have a Phazer RTX which I purchased used and was previously studded. The sled has OEM Yamaha dual runner skis with 1-6" (inside) and 1-4" wear bars. I've since removed the studs and it seems like a lot of carbide for a smallish sled. I typically run Bergstom triple points but doesn't...

Thanks, -Hank

Hi, Doing my end of season maintenance and have a loose wheel. On disassembly, I found that the outer washer is worn (fastens wheel/bushing to alum block). The OE washer is cupped. Anyway to find the PN of the washer? Perhaps the info included in the kit has the PN? Thanks. hank

Hi all, I have a 2016 RsVector XTX with just over 7000 miles (purchased from an older gentleman @ 5800 miles). I've had Yamaha sleds for ~40 years and this sled had noticeable clutch noise between 4-5k rpm. No noticeable performance issue, just a minor rattle. I thoroughly cleaned the...

I have a 2016 Phazer RTX that I purchased used. Sled starts and idles fine but hesitates when I feather the throttle and try to engage the clutch- it is worse in reverse. I haven't noticed code 84 but seems likely that the issue is related to the Throttle Position Sensor. I haven't opened the...

What is the best way to get service manual type information for a 2016 RsVector XTX? Looking for torque specs for the clutches and the clutch side bearing cover. Thanks. Hank

Hi all, I have a 2016 RsVector XTX 1.75. I bought the sled with 5800 mi and have ridden ~900 miles this season. I have noticed that at slow speeds (20-29 mph) the clutch makes a slight chatter (feel as much as hear) and the engine tach varies back and forth about 300 rpm every few seconds. I...

Hi all, I'm in the process of purchasing a 2016 Phazer RTX. I have pretty good familiarity with the 2007 model but have not kept pace with changes and improvements over the years. Is there a post which captures the changes that Yamaha has made to the Phazer since being introduced? Just want...

The two rear linkages on the 07 Phazer GT I recently picked up wouldn't take grease so I pulled the suspension apart to investigate/repair. I was able to get the longer shaft freed up by applying heat but the shorter shaft is completely seized. I've been soaking the linkage/shaft in...

Looking for a windshield bag and the tool bag that tucks in the front suspension. Looks like Yamaha has stopped offering and not finding anything on the web. Any thoughts were I might be able to find these items? Thanks. -Hank

Wondering what the "stock" setting for the limiter strap is. The strap has 5 sets of holes and is in the shortest setting. This would seem to be max ski pressure - correct? Thanks. Also, if this is not the stock position - what is the correct way to make the change?

I have a 2010 Vector LTX with ~3400 miles. The rear skid is essentially stuck in one position, won't extend -- won't compress. There doesn't seem to be any visual damage to the skid. At 3000 miles, I had the sled in for service and the dealer pulled the skid to change the hyfax. In...

How do I re-adjust the EFI on my '07 Phazer FX? I'm heading to the Black Hills and want to know how to adjust the EFI if necessary. Also, what does it take to change the secondary setting to A2? Thanks.

Heading to the Black Hills in a few weeks for my first taste of western riding. Which sled is better suited for riding in that area, a 2007 Fx Phazer or a 2006 RsVenture? Only going for a couple of days and am not planning on doing any power riding. Can I get by with a standard set-up or...

Looking for an opinion, I picked up a 2007 Phazer FX at the end of last season. The sled was used by the dealer one weekend in the spring of 2008 and then I used the sled one weekend this past February. The sled has just 211 miles. Should I change oil now or wait till I get closer to the...

Has anyone come up with a clever place to locate registration decals on the clutch side of the new Phazer? I have a set of registration plates from sledsolutions but haven't found a decent place to mount the plates much less the decals. Thanks.

Hi, Wondering if anyone has installed a riser on a RsVenture. I'd be interested in the manufacture, model and a description of what it took to install. Am I correct to assume that the handlebar pad no longer fits? Pics would be great, thanks. Hank

I'm considering installing LED Tail Lamps on the '06 RsVenture. Any negatives? Any recommendations on where to buy? Thanks.

The handlebars on my RsVenture are offset a tad to the right. The sled tracks great and so I do not want to alter the toe-in. How is handle bar position changed on the Rs models?

What is the benefit of adding a 4th wheel to the rear axle? Thx.
