Ok, I have read piles of posts on sloppy steering, and was planning on ordering the steering post bushing above the EPS motor. I have the sled tore down right now to replace one bad manifold clamp, so it's the perfect time to do it with no snow on the ground. But for the life of me, how does...

Yup, it's that time of year. We got what Minnesotan's call a Skiff of snow. We are 29f and see our first of the white stuff. To the West, Northern ND got hit pretty good with an inch in Fargo to up over a foot in some areas to the NW. We won't see above freezing temps for the next 4-5 days. And...

It's quite obvious that most of us have come to the realization that we are going to be happy with our sled of choice that is sitting currently on the trailer. As there is not even a buzz or rumor thread in the last couple weeks of January 2023. Obviously cat made a few waves by leaking info...

So there is no discussion of the $47,000,000 settlement this week that Arctic Cat/Textron will have to pay out to Speed for breach of contract? This may or may not impact the Yamaha faithful. Other than the fact that the engine supplier agreement applies as much or more to the Wildcat XX...

I have done some searching for a hitch option for my XTX. I have the part numbers from the old model, and one for the 2011 and above models. Of course, the real question is what is out there that may be in stock. As searching those old part numbers is coming up pretty dry in this market. I'm...

I did some searching, and maybe this is a non issue. There are Bulkhead savers for the Apex chassis as it's obviously much harder to swap if damaged. Has anyone been able to save a bulkhead of the viper from an upper A-arm getting ripped out? Or is the better option to just order a new one...

Oh my, the cat fan boys are triggered by this post on social media by a Doo ambassador! I think it's great. What they don't realize is nobody was crying when most of their beloved 120's were equipped with the same Yamaha Four Stroke 120cc engine back in the day. I think this 200 platform...

It's about time to get fired up for Haydays! Swap is sold out, and tickets are onsale online now. We did that in 2019 and it saved us plenty of time at the gate. I'm feeling there is going to be plenty of pent up Haydays/sled aggression this fall. With no show last year and a low snow year...

Just to kick this season of videos off.... did I rip it on October 20th.... Yes I did! Video to come!

So instead of bitching in another thread about what is coming, or not coming, or bitching about what should be coming, or what was done wrong, I want to post something positive. Here is a place to talk about how much you enjoyed what you currently have, and why it's as good as it needs to be to...

Yup, this is the second Trail Tank I have pushed past 8000 miles. The first was sold with over 12,000 on it. This may be the real reason why Yamaha is not selling the Apex anymore. We all have a good one, and don't need another. (sounds like Maytag) At least I know I can still wait for the...

So we stuffed the Apex and Viper in deep ditches tonight. I pulled my tow tope out that I keep in the nose cone bag up front. That bag has never been removed. After I pulled the viper out, I noticed I had no headlights. All other lights working and no codes. Just no headlights. Since I...

Many have done this, but some have not. So I documented my annual tunnel polishing. This is a quick rundown on the process to polish your aluminum tunnel. It includes quick tips, tools, and procedures to get a near mirror finish. Of course I could have taken this up to 1500 grit paper, but...

I hope a few of you are part of the AC Turbo forum on Hardcore sledder, as I learned something yesterday. Since I have a Viper in the fleet and not a Sidewinder, I was not one to question it. Are the plastics on the 9000 series different from the Sidewinder plastics to the point that they are...

We think the AC/Yamaha engine supplier agreement has ended. And Yamaha has gone into a new agreement with a chinese Toy MFG. We hope to see more info the day after Thanksgiving. I hope we have snow on the ground in three weeks, so that we can test this sucker.

Is it too early to start talking about Haydays? Anyone heard of any new displays? Or events going on? We had Levi's jump two years ago, and the addition of mud runs last year, what will be new this year? Sorry to say, how many sleds will we actually see in the Yamaha booth this year? It...

So have any of you riveted some belting or other rubber to your existing snow flap to extend it? I saw one photo and I should have saved it. My buddys bitch constantly about the amount of snow/ice that my XTX throws out the back. And now with the larger lug track, it's even worse. I find...

So all of us married guys hear our wives say, "I'm heading to the store, need anything?" And we know it's time for Sled Porn. Or she says, "I'm going to bed early, stay up as long as you like." And you know, it's time for sled porn. Hell, the single guys are probably doing this 4-5 times a...

Please pardon the poor audio, I didn't have my mic fully plugged in. I had to share my thoughts on my new foam cannon. I know there are tons of cheaper options on the market. But I do find washing my boat, truck or toys so satisfying. I think I'm getting old. I need a life. But until then...
