    03 RX-1 top end rebuild

    Well, if you think it is a ring issue you wouldn't want to do the top end. You would want to put rings in and hone the cylinders.

    03 RX-1 top end rebuild

    I just did a Venture. What experience do you have as a mechanic? It isn't really any different than any other 4 stroke (car/truck) but there are a couple things to watch for. I am just off 421 and sr32. What is wrong that you need to pull the head?

    How to remove chaincase????

    Disconect the reverse linkage and unbolt the bellcrank from the chaincase. It won't swivel far enough to get the fork past the gear unless you do. Don't hammer or pry, no need to.

    Upgrade to a ZX2 Suspension or go with the Apex

    I have the Proaction in my 03 with Nytro shocks and springs. Also have Apex A-Arms, Vector Gt clicker shocks with Attak springs. Run Yamaha mid keel Skis with stock carbides. Sled rides great and handles the junk really good. handles and corners really good too.

    Deltabox broken lower A-arm mount tab .

    I think I have a complete bulkhead assy (LH & RH sides) from an 05 Rage I parted. If you're interested let me know and I'll dig it out and take some pics. You pay shipping. Thanks

    Help with Belt Install

    Easy way to get the belt off is to hold the brake on and pull up and forward (towards the front of sled) on the belt. That will spread the sheves and then just work the belt off. Put it back on like Kvipre said.

    Warrior Shock replacement

    No need rto pull the skid. Just tip it on it's side, if you tip it on it's left side you may want to pinch the fuel tank vent line so it won't leak fuel. Take out the two shock bolts and the shock is out. It may help to loosen up the bolts in the end of the control rods so the bolts won't be...

    How high can you GO?

    I've got a Nytro riser and the 07 bars on my 03. I got a set of bars and the controls from a mountain sled but I think I ended up using my 03 throttle cable. It isn't any too long but it works fine. I'd hate to tell you for sure though because I really don't remember. I'll try and get a...

    YAMAHEATER Nice Warm Hands for 03 - Current Yamaha 4 Strokes

    I put the 07 hooked bars on my 03 RX1 and while I love the riding position my hands were freezing. Thought I had the same thing going on as everyone else. I was going to put the old reostat off a 97 02 Vmax on and wire it to a switched 12 volt source so I wouldn't take any chances on killing the...

    suspension upgrade

    I have an 03 RX1 as well. I went with a torsion spring rear suspension with Nytro shocks. I put a Vector tunnel on so I wouldn't have a bunch of holes. Put Apex a-arms on the front with Vector GT shocks and Attak front springs. Have a 12mm bar with the long links. Ripsaw track, no studs. I have...

    Advice, Comments, suggestions

    Yamaha updated the chain tensioner on the early sleds. Check with a dealer or with Yamaha tech, I think it was a free upgrade.

    Bulkhead, replace or weld?

    The bulkhead is made of aluminum so welding would be the only choice to try for a repair. The proble with welding aluminum though is it softens it so it won't be as strong after welding and will probably eventually crack next to the welds. JB weld is a horrible idea. It isn't a structural glue...

    BELT FAILURE!

    Use the new belt. To change it just stand next to the sled, hold the brake lever, pull the belt up and towards the front of the sled and it will split the sheaves then just pull it over the sheave at the top and wiggle it off. To put it back on, just spread the sheaves a bit, put the belt...

    Steering rod ends WTF?

    The one on the Lt side is the right one. The washers you have on it are too thick, the std. washers are maybe .060 thick. I think if you get the right ones and replace the rt. rod end with a std. one you'll be good. The std. rod ends have the step to let them go into a higher angle and not bind.

    differant front shocks

    I did the Apex A-arms with the Vector Gt clickers, Apex std. springs. Left the 12mm bar with long links in the front. Put a Vector tunnel on with Nytro skid and shocks. 05 seat, ipsaw no studs 05 deep keel skis only use stock carbides.. Works very good. Goes through the bumps good but handles...
