I'm happy to hear that they will be at Larry's for the test rides. When I was a kid in the late 60's he sold Polaris sleds right next to his bar. I stop by there now in the Summer on my Harley, and since Mi went no smoking it has hurt his bar bad.
He depends a lot on sled riders for his bar, he...
If the Yamaha Executives are telling it like it is, Yamaha will have some cool new sleds over the next 5 years. I like the fact that this will make more American jobs.
In a perfect world Yamaha would build a new plant in America and assemble them here with out help from Cat, but as we all know...
I store my sled in a nice dry garage about 24" off the floor.
I like the fix that 'rxwarrior' came up with, I will try that this summer. If that dont work for me I will try one of the other ideas from you guys.
Thanks for all the advice...
On my 05 RX-1 every year, when I take it out of storage the pilot jets are plugged. This is getting old. This year I had STA-BIL in the gas and it still did it.
What is the best fix so I dont need to take off the carbs every year.
Thanks...
I did the same thing to My 05 RX-1 this year. I think my transfer rod unscrewed too. Now I need a new one. I cant believe some one dont make a after markit one. I didn't know it would cost me $250...

I know that the sales on dual sport bikes are not as good. In my group they are starting to get popular.
'phantom'
Im with you on the 650s they can be a bit much on tight trails, but the guys said they dont go down a lot of them, just 2 tracks and dirt roads.
Road bike guys stay...
Over the last 2 or 3 years some of my friends have got dual purpose bikes for the summer. A KAWASAKI. KLR 650 - SUZUKI. DR650 and they also make a SUZUKI. DRZ400S . I would like to jump in with them with a YAMAHA but the bigest they have is the XT225. I dont think that is big enough to run with...
TOM.
Thank YOU, for the best sled site on the net. I dont post a lot, but I do read and learn on your site, all year long. I cant say it any better then whats already been said. this is the only site I feel at home on.
YOU are a friend to all of us...Gary.
Looks cool,
I will wait til I see all the specs befor I get to excited. If this new sled comes in around 500-520 ibs and they dont add on some hp to the APEX for 08, then I dont see a good reason to buy the APEX.
To me If you consider power to weight and handling, the APEX would seem a bit...
My VIPER brother totaled out his sled. It was a very fast CPR piped VIPER
He would like to go back to POLARIS but they dont excite him.
So now he is thinking of ( I cant believe he said this ) going 4-stroke. As for 07 the only YAMAHA he would get is the RTX. He drives hard and likes to get...
NELSONS SPEED SHOP in greenville mi .
I think the 07 RTX is around 8600 O.T.D. best to just call them.
616 754 9185. let me know if I got the price right...
When I said, the VIPER is CPR set up, that includes CPR tripple pipes.
I think my sled is set up good, it has the updated CPR clutching. The RPMs run about 10.300 - 10.400. I dont think I can get anymore out of the clutching. I think the rest of my sled is also set up good. I dont want to go...
have a 05 RX-1 with CPR air kit and clutching, with stock gearing.
I can get the hole shot on just about all the guys in my group. But by about 60 mph by the stock speedo they all start to pull back up on me.
We always drag up to about 100 mph, by then most of the guys have past me.
So...
Well affter a talk last night with the guys, they all think the same as I did
anyway, it would be to close to call. So as far as Im concerned they are about the same. Jrff and Freddy are good at what they do.
Now we are going up thusday night and run all day and night friday. One of the guys...
The rings came with the CPR air kit I got in 05. So I know it can be a bit hard to get the filters over the rings. It helps if it is warm, and a little
W-D 40, and try to push on from the back of the filter. I alredy have some wrinkles in my filters from pushing from the front to hard.
A...
Do any of you know if ther is a deference brtween the 2 on performanc ?.
I have a 05 RX-1 with the CPR, with updated clutching, the velocity rings came with it. Also the evac is built in to the front of the filter.
I dont want to start a thing between Jeff and Freddie. I have respect for both...
