    Oil in coolant

    Same thing I had found on my 08, no am to freeze in oil, just very small drops of oil floating by radiator cap. Never had any other issues. 6000 miles on it now! Saw my overheat light several times prior to all this. Takes a massive overheat to pop a head gasket on a Yamaha motor, or a super...

    Weighed my sled...

    Same with me, my Nytro is a tank compared to my buds Polaris shift 600, but he spends big $$ on synthetic 2 stroke oil, and will need a rebuild in a few years, and I won't have to do either! Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk

    Thinking of changing tracks and need input.

    I'm waiting for a new 100% Yamaha made sled with a true rising rate rear suspension like the Polaris Axys, with the longevity of the Yamaha 4 stroke, until then the $$ keeps flowing into my Nytro. Fun ride and the mods make it better! Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk

    Weighed my sled...

    $6500 is chump change to a lot people in the USA, but not this US Air Force enlisted guy! If you got the funds, that carbon fiber looks sooo sweet!

    Weighed my sled...

    $4500!! For a new tunnel? :brrr: The new 2016 Polaris Axys 800; 435 lbs dry, 163 HP. No way a 4 stroke will ever be that light. But my motor will never explode a piston either!

    Short track or xtx what should I do!

    129" Ripsaw2 with Star relocate kit here. Seems like 100% more traction, I love it, would never go back to a 121". With all the Nytro power, Wish I had an XTX!

    Thinking of changing tracks and need input.

    Star relocate and a 129" Ripsaw2 here, no comparisons to the 121 Ripsaw1, this track hooks up and goes!!! Love it!

    One thing I hate about my nytro

    Over 6000 miles, never lost any! They should have retainers on the back, look like a star washer.

    Oil in coolant

    They will overheat in low snow, very hard frozen snow packed trails, and if you let them sit and idle a long time. Also make sure you fan works, and changing the coolant to 50/50 helps. I also added the big vent panel above the radiator under speedometer. Tons of heat pours out of there when...

    Oil in coolant

    I have a 2008 Ive had since new. I changed coolant after about 1500 miles or so a few years ago and found the same thing, droplets of oil floating up near the radiator cap. I totaly freaked out! Thought I blew a head gasket! Worried about it for a whole season. Mine would over heat in low snow...

    An other Newb. Jumping to the dark side from Doo!

    Well my 08 Nytro was suppose to save me money, on the good old two stroke problems, sold my reliable Polaris 600xcsp to get the Nytro. I have spent so much money making this Yamaha work well I could buy my Polaris back with Nytro mod money! Now Ive got 2500 miles on it and oil in the coolant...

    Oil in coolant.

    Checked my spark plugs, they all look the same, perfect, no water in oil, oil clean, not milky, sled does not smoke or smell, and I rode it for 2 hours at 47 deg F and since I changed coolant its not overheating, still seeing little dark spots of oil in radiator, the sled runs perfect though...

    Oil in coolant.

    Just changed the coolant in my 08 FX Nytro with 2225 miles, was ridding in Northern MN on the Iron Range this week in single dig. temps on hard pack, and got the yellow heat light about 4 times. Read on this site to get rid of the factory coolant and I switched to 50/50 mix Peak global, with...

    Would you want Power steering on your nytro

    I love my 08 FX Nytro, but just rode my buddies new 2011 A-Cat F-8 and his new 2011 A-Cat Snow Pro 500, gotta say they turn and steer so much easier than my Nytro!! Wow, they were a blast to ride, especially in the ditches! I would like power steering, would make the Nytro a better sled!!
