    Is this track in need of replacement?

    So did the 2012 XTX come with a ripsaw or ripsaw 2? If it came with a rip 2 how do I get a new rip 2 in 144"? Camso website doesn't show a rip 2 in 144.

    Apex XTX - Elka stage 4 setup

    Has anyone installed a set of Elka Stage 4 shocks on your XTX? If so, could you share if you deviated from the factory settings that were supplied from Elka or any other tips to getting the optimum setup with these shocks?

    Are SnowTrackers really "Dangerous"?

    I was with whitedust when the trackers caught the RR Tracks and knocked him off. At this spot the tracks are on a 45 degree angle from the feeder trail we were on. That and the fact that the RR tracks really aren't used anymore and were covered in snow so you really couldn't see them are the...

    Looking for helmet recommendations.

    I too have the Bv2S and completely agree with it being a warm helmet. I ride with noise cancelling ear buds so getting it on and off isn't the easiest since the helmet design doesn't allow for much flex, but it is by far my go to helmet with the temps drop below 10-15 degrees F. What I haven't...

    Where does it OFFICIALLY say Apex is being dropped?

    I for one would love to see Yamaha come out with a Apex replacement (pure Yamaha). I have read all the posts in this thread and agree with basically everything I read. Even the comments about how Yamaha isn't listening and won't cut the weight down. Maybe/probably that statement is correct. I'm...

    Tuner skies or bergstrom

    I know this is an Apex forum and I have two Apexs with snowtrackers...but I thought I would share my opinion since I'm experimenting wtih turner skis with 8" triple points (bergstroms). I just removed my stock skis on a Venture GT which had snowtrackers. I put on the tuner skis with bergstrom 8"...

    2014 venture gt track noise

    Sure sound isolating ear buds and an iPod. Once my son convinced me to try I will never go back. I like the engine sound, but eventually like my tunes better. I can always turn off iPod and use ear buds as ear plugs. When using sound isolating ear buds I hear no wind noise or engine noise while...

    2009 RS Venture GT 2 up ski lift, tippy in twisty trails

    Venture north, front shocks have already been done like the previous post suggested. I'm not sure about the limiter strap. you might want to find out stock hole position then adjust if it's still stock. DF

    drone sound new apex xtx

    Doesn't look like we will be getting any helpful information other than the usual non-answers

    drone sound new apex xtx

    the Venture GT also has the drone sound so I don't think it's only on the 4 cylinder engines.

    2012 XTX where have you been all my life

    The new skis DO NOT eliminate darting. You need to install either bergstrom triple points or snow trackers. I use both depending if bergstrom answers his phone. I thought the 2012 XTX was a little stiff compared to my 2011 XTX. I rode both today and they are both set to "M" in the rear.

    Snowtrackers-usa

    I agree with you. I ended up ordering from Royal Distributing. I did get them in about a week since there were no customs issues. They warned me if the box was tagged to be checked by customs it could add up to two weeks. there should be a distributor in the USA.

    Is anyone Burming regular gas in 2011 apex ?

    I have seen some gas stations guarantee no ethanol in their premium gas. Thats how the station is by me. That reason alone would cause me to buy premium. You might want to look in to that.

    2011 Apex Q's

    Put semi aggressive snow trackers on my 2011 XTX. I put on 100 miles last weekend. No darting at all. Just like my previous sleds with snow trackers. I don't change the ski or shim.

    According to yamaha, no hyfax overheating problem on XTX '11

    Frosty, Ok, I see the same kit in a few places but it seems they are supposed to be installed on the skid/frame and not the skis. Did you decide to install them on the skis? Dennis Kirk has what appears to be the same kit from a company called RSI. http://www.denniskirk.com/jsp/product_c...

    According to yamaha, no hyfax overheating problem on XTX '11

    Well, I'm usually good at finding things online but I can't find that part number anywhere. Could you steer me in the right direction? Where can I buy them? Also, I noticed you put the Ohlins shocks up front. Have you tried the stock shocks? What model did you get for the XTX? Same as for...

    According to yamaha, no hyfax overheating problem on XTX '11

    Frosty, Could you tell me who makes the scratchers you are using and where you bought them? Also, do you think they are necessary to always have them or only in low snow conditions?
