For deleting my entire thank you thread. I will leave you with this parting shot and hope this doesn't get deleted too.

Well guys, its the end of the road for me with Yamaha. It was a hard sell even though it was in excellent condition with many upgrades. So many people around here are weary of them and are aware of the inherent quirkiness of owning one. They are just ill suited to our terrain: too much snow...

From Polaris: Lists only 3 manufacturers for "What BRAND is your current snowmobile?" Was this oversight made on purpose or did they really run out of room on the card for 6 more letters? Discuss.

Repost I'm sure but worth a revisit. Yamaha, Newfoundland style. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0jJcAibNls

New synthetic, new filter, new plugs, every electrical connection smeared with dielectric grease, rear skid removed & lubricated, track tensioned, toe set, etc, etc. I'm in about 8 hours now, got about another 4 hours till she's all done.

My brother (a BRP tech) has hooked me up with a 600 renegade X from a client of his. C&A's, 1.75 track, Boss seat, adjustable risers, Aaen pipe, etc etc. He just freshened up the motor with new pistons, rings, seals etc (although the engine was just about perfect anyways). Got it for $5k and...

Its a repost but I haven't seen it in a while so I thought I'd throw it up there. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QldnvWcYJPc

Does anyone know if a mountain tamer suspension can be installed in a stock skid that's been stretched to a 136? The rear suspension is junk and I would like an upgrade, but I don't want a 144. Any thoughts? I looked at hygear too but Mtn tamer seems to be more intelligently designed whereas...

Dear TY, While on my last ride I broke the rear H arm for the 3rd time (each one was a new updated piece), found a broken shock bushing, lost the bolt on the secondary, lost a rear idler wheel and split my exhaust. Now, should I tell my friends about all the troubles my Yamaha suffers and the...

How do you remove/install the stock rivets?

I split the muffler so I dissasembled the exhaust and welded it back together. Heat wrap is 3 years old...not too bad at all. The heat shield was toast so this is how I made it new again. I cut up header wrap to the appropriate length to cover the inside of the shield. Then I...

I am out of power on my phazer. She's right where I want her handling wise but she just doesn't have the go power for what I need. I'm either going to: a. Boost it b. Nytro c. BRP 800 backcountry x Its unlikely that the little 500 will last long under boost and its not worth throwing 5...

I'd just like to throw out this link to Cannondale's post on cleaning your clutch. http://www.ty4stroke.com/viewtopic.php? ... ight=ulmer I did this the other day and I cannot believe what a difference it made to the machine. I was at 7500km and by the look of it it had never been...

So I've outgrown the mighty Phazer. Its still an awesome sled but I have it to the bar most everywhere I go. I am considering an 09 Nytro xtx from the dealer (salesman's model-barely used). However, from what I have been reading these things are extremely heavy, about 100lbs heavier than my...

I found significant upward movement of the steering shaft when moving the skis from side to side. The shaft will travel up and down in its aluminum mount approximately 6mm when the sled is lifted and the skis are moved from side to side. This translates into a slop that can't be fixed with new...

$279.98 or $120.00

Alright, a shiny new nickle is up for grabs to the first person who can explain the photo below. Yes, I know the answer but do YOU?

So I went riding with 2 Doos yesterday and all I heard was what a piece of crap my Yamaha is. Funny that both Doos broke down, one due to clutch failure and the other one's starter failed. There was no way either would let me tow the XP so he limped it out and burned up the belt. Yamaha's are...

Can I move the wheel back to decrease the tension on the spring? It would be nice if my medium was a bit softer.
