    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...

    Front skid shock lower bushing

    Took my skid out yesterday to assess the damage from our 4-day saddlebag ride last year through Quebec. we ran into some of the worst conditions I have ever ridden in. I knew there was pre-mature wear on some parts but was unprepared for what I found on my lower shock. I know these bushings...

    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...

    sled weights

    I am not a huge fan of Snow Trax but kudos for them for putting this out. I guess our Sidewinders are not all that much heavier than the two strokes. So much for the "dont get them stuck " argument.

    Sidewinder trail tank

    Has anyone tried the 12 gallon fuel tank from Trail Tanks? If so, how do they fit? I had one on my Nytro years back and the fit was "o.k." I hate having to look for gas all the time on these saddlebag rides. It would be nice to stretch it out another30-40 miles

    Pro cross chain case question

    Why is the upper chain case bearing in the Viper and Sidewinder a self-aligning bearing? What moves that this is needed? Why wouldn't a regular deep groove ball bearing work?

    2014 ZR7000/Viper chain case questions

    I just pulled a customer's 2014 ZR7000 into my shop with a completely grenaded chain case. As it has been a while since I owned a Viper I have a few questions. Will a newer updated case( upper bearing) fit? Will I need the upper shaft to do so? If not, what do I need to update the case( upper...

    Kimpex connect?

    Has anyone used the Kimpex connect system on a Sidewinder? I am looking at options for storage/fuel on longer trips and am wondering if this system or the Whiteout Tech system would better suit my needs.

    BOP bearing upgrade observations

    I decided that since I was putting a different track in my new 2022 LTX I would install the BOP ungraded bearing also. Sled has zero miles so I want to start fresh with the bearing. While doing so I made a few observations. The new bearing fits MUCH tighter than the original one. I can slide the...

    Sidewinder helix

    Been thinking about trying some different helix's this year in my new S/W. At $125 each they are not cheap to just buy and try. Anyone got any helix's they may not be using and looking to sell? Anyone try anything they really like? I know every clutch set up may be different but just looking for...

    Track, Storm or Rip 2 1.5?

    I am thinking of changing the track in my new 2022 Gt. I will probably stay will the stock muffler tunes on this one. I am wondering about the Storm 1.5 or the Rip 2 1.5. I really like the loose snow traction of the 1.5 track I had a Storm on my 129 tuned to 270-300 and the track did not seem to...

    Let's talk suspension

    I picked my new 2022 LTX GT this spring and have been thinking about suspension upgrades. We all know that big power is relatively easy to get with these Sidewinders. The next frontier, for me, is ultimate ride/handling. After over 21k miles on these chassis, I want to see how good I can get...
