    Starter/reverse button failure?

    I’m trying to help a friend over the phone on a trip. 2024 SRX. When you put the key in the in “on”position, the sled starts. Reverse does not work. Sled sat outside on a very cold and windy night. My best guess was the start/reverse switch is stuck on, or left switch assembly is shorted in...

    STM secondary vs. stock helix angles.

    Has anyone done any testing between the STM secondary vs. a stock secondary as far as tuning options? Question is helix angle comparison, say a Yamaha roller 35 degree acts like a 45 degree on the STM? It seems like the angles dropped @ 10 degrees on the Sidewinder roller clutch vs. the old...

    Customer service

    I thought I put some positive news out there. I run INS traction ( Formerly Roetin ) Hornet studs. I get them from an on site sponsor. I have been using them since my 2017 Sidewinder. They are thinner profile than most. I also like that they will snap off instead of bend. I figure they will...

    Going back to Heeclickers.

    I have installed and am testing a clutch weight I used extensively in the past but abandoned in 2018 because of reliability issues and the owners unwillingness to address them. Long story, I used heelclicker and heel clicker Drag-n-fly weights since they came out in the early 2000's . They were...

    Threading the stock weights

    Has anyone been able to thread the stock Yamaha weights? I took the rivets out of a stock weight and was wondering if i could thread the hole and use set screws instead of rivets. I know the material they are made of is hard as nails. The other thought I had was to put a small 6mm bushing in...

    Shift curve of flyweights

    I am putting around with my clutch this morning. I am looking for some RPM and instead of buying another set of Dalton weights I am looking at what I have in stock. My Dalton current weights are too heavy at 75 grams. I have a set of G-Force weights at 71.5 grams. The G-Force weight has a...

    turbo whine

    I have a brand new 2024 SRX in my shop to install studs. 84 miles When I move the sled or shut it off, I can hear a small "whine" as the turbo slows or stops spinning. Sounds like a bearing noise. I have 2 other Sidewinders right next to it, one with 2200 miles and the other with zero miles and...

    FX Nytro handling

    I have been out of the Nytro game for a while now and am wondering if you guys have found any new ways to make the front end better. That was the main downside with my Nytro XTX in the day. The reason I ask is because beside the front end I liked the rest of the sled. There also seems to be some...
