    2013 new chassis

    I think they should have made a 250 4stroke intermediate size sled and called it the snow scoot. As far as the rest of the line up, just think of the great resale value of our current sleds, lol.

    2008 Vector questions

    I have an O8 Vector with 4000 trouble free miles. Most owners will have found the hand warmers useless. I put the soft Yamaha handlebar covers on mine and its a big improvement, also go with dual runner carbides and shim the skis and it will eliminate darting and it will turn when you want it to...

    Gauntlets and mirrors question

    I have those hand gaurds on my Vector and they work well. I was using the Ski doo windshield mount mirrors but had to take them off because they were making contact. I couldnt see out of them anyway but would also like to know if those mirrors would work with them.

    first ride on my apex and crappy trip up

    My Vector darted pretty bad also, until I shimmed the skis and intalled the dualies carbides from Woodies. I am suprised how good they look after a hard season of riding, so they should be good for this year as well, best thing I did to the sled.

    YAMA-AWSOME-HEATER.

    Thanks for all the extra info on this endless subject Rock, it amazes me how quick and in depth your responses are on this, when you should be out on your sled at this time of year. It sounds like your heaters are well thought out and are operating within your parameters. More heat out of the...

    YAMA-AWSOME-HEATER.

    Ever since I bought a Vector last year with grips that dont work, I have been following this thread with great interest. So far, I am still sitting on the fence and trying to decide which way to go. I am sure the Yamaheaters work as advertised and have many satisfied customers, but when I see a...

    handwarmers again

    Has anyone installed the new handwarmer update kit from Yamaha? It seems to be for 06 to 09 machines and comes for hooked or straight bars, and sells for about $100. It looks to me like it is just a new heating element.

    gas mileage?

    I have no idea, but would guess that it wouldn't be very much, less than 5% I would say. I was wondering what would be the total range of my sled(08 vector) so I rode it today for 32miles after the fuel light came on and I still could only get 33 liters into the (supposedly) 38 liter tank. If...

    engine rattling sound on 2008 Vector GT with 1000 miles

    My 08 Vector rattles as well. It does this at idle and you can sometimes hear it in the midrange. I measured the spline axial free play, and it seems to be about 1mm, and the sled has 1200 miles on it now. I dont know if this is what causes the noise but I will keep and eye on the amount of play.

    Clutch rattle noise experiment

    I have noticed excess clutch noise from my 08 Vector as well. Mine has the same end play as yours so lets hope this is normal. Maybe the noise is only noticable because the engine is mostly quiet and the exhaust exits at the rear. Just guessing but, I will have it looked at during my first...
