    Ice Cobra 1.6 on 2014 XTX

    I had a 1.6 Ice cobra track (no studs) put on my 2014 XTX this summer. At 15-20 MPH I'm hearing a slapping noise coming from the drive shaft. Goes away when i go over 20MPH. I'm going to get a better look at it this morning but I was hoping for some insight. My fear is I didn't do enough...

    Adding to the padding (rhymes) XTX

    For those of you that added a couple of inches to the xtx seat were you able to add it using the OEM seat cover or did you have to add more material? I have an upholsterer who can do but hasn't seen the seat yet, he things I will need to add material. I'd like to go up two inches.

    Back to the Apex

    Hey guys, I sold my Sidewinder and I've returned to the Apex. I got a good deal on a 2014 xtx with low miles and I couldn't be happier. I didnt have any major issues but I just never felt confident in the SW like I did the Apex. I really wish Yamaha would sever their ties with AC and redo the...

    Finger tight and the thrust washer

    I changed the chain case oil last night and as I was tightening the chain I realized I don't know what finger tight means. Does it mean as tight as I can with with my fingers or does it mean until I meet resistance? I asked on FB and I called two dealers, the answers were split right down to...

I got the oil drained, filter came off with the gasket. I drained from both holes. With the filter there is a copper washer and a rubber o ring, where...

    left over part/bushing

    Hello Apex guru's. I'm typically an observer in here soaking up the professionalism you display. Two weeks ago I removed my skid to replace the exhaust donuts and to add a big boy spring. I got everything back together and it seems tight but I haven't had a chance to ride outside of the yard...

    2009 apex coolant

    I'm a long time listener, rare caller. I have a 2009 Apex Ltx and I just drained the coolant to replace it with engine ice. I failed to pay attention to how much came out. The manual says it has a 6.5 quarts capacity. For those of you that have done this how much did you use to replace it? I...

    RX1 oil change

    I decided to tear into my sled and change the oil and filter, three hours later I'm done, what a chore! I know this topic has been discussed over and over but when I replaced the oil I put two quarts in the engine and two in the tank. After I did the job I checked the forums and most are...
