I did it on my wifes RX1, that sled ran great for 2 years and I didn't even clean the carbs after the summer (I did put in fuel stabilizer before storage). I recently did have a problem with it because one of the fuel filters had developed a hole . I put mine right next to the steering post on...

When you clean the carbs you need to verify that you can see through the pilot jets. I've had tons of trouble with this myself, and I have a Sonic Cleaner big enough to put the entire carb rack in. I've taken to just buying a spare set of pilot jets. When I clean the carbs I install the spares...

So on your suggestion I reached out to full power performance, who suggested the jetti g was wrong. I then went back and tore into the carbs for the 5th or so time, and realized... The spring at the top of all 4 carbs was missing! After putting them in from anset of donor carbs the sled iddles...

Hello all, I bought an 03 RX-1 with a bender turbo and have since removed the turbo. Ever since I've been struggling to get the sled to run smoothly without the help of choke. I re-jetted and cleaned the carbs to 165 to run a basic 60MM carb filter. The sled still has the electronic fuel pump...

Hello all, I bought an RX-1 drag sled, with the old school bender turbo pre-installed. I am removing the turbo and would like to change the gearing down to turn a 2" paddle track a little easier. I looked at swapping the top gear when I had the chain case cover off but found that the gear...

Thanks for the likes and comments. I hope to find some time to get some pictures of this, I actually left this mod in when I went up to old forge this weekend and it didn't let me down! I did however take an extra fuel pump with me just in case it did. Edit: I should have mentioned, I put 240...

So, I'm in Virginia and got a chance to ride around in all the sweet sweet powder that we had recently. But I had some problems, I could get around in the deep stuff but I ended up smoking a belt doing so. I like my trail sled but I want to give it some flotation so I can actually stay in the...

While we're on the subject of Temp, may I ask. Has anyone here added a temp gauge? Either exhaust or coolant?

I've heard its common to add a front radiator like here http://www.ty4stroke.com/threads/how-to-add-a-front-radiator-to-your-rx-1.64128/ Or you could try a rear heat exchanger and ice scratchers.

Did you try bypassing TORS? How about frayed wires in the nose?

Did you go through the "NO SPARK OR WEAK SPARK." troubleshooting section in the SM? First step is fuses.

Hello all, Recently I had a problem with my 2003 RX-1 with low power, and not sounding right. The sled would run but would die if I didn't keep on the gas. I went through a lot of troubleshooting to fix it so I figured I'd post the story here in hopes it can help some other unlucky SOB. It...

Did you check all the coils or just one?

Ah here http://www.ty4stroke.com/threads/service-bulletin-from-yamaha-crankcase-vent.2824/ "" Yamaha has published and sent a service bulletin out regarding the crankcase breather hose freezing up in extreme cold conditions. This will cause the valve cover gasket to push out from higher than...

Has anyone tried to update the rings? It looks like the piston stayed the same between years but the rings changes. 03 RX-1...

Good place to get tracks is Tracks USA, can't comment on the studs tho. http://www.tracksusa.com/ Looks like they have a pre-studded one here http://www.tracksusa.com/Ice-Attak-XT-122-Pre-Studded-detail.htm?productId=-438320&browse=-47152&shopBy=-13144&catalogId=-3693 You can always call them...

This is the one I was looking at actually. Thanks for the insight Indy, I'll report back how they work!

I bought an '03 RX-1 second hand, it has an M-20 and I'm thinking of replacing the front shocks. It has what I think are GYTR front shocks (sticker is gone). The front end doesn't dart and the sled really sticks to the trail now, but I only have about 200 miles on it so far. I'm an average to...

I'm looking to convert my 09 XTX over to more of a mountain machine and make some improvements along the way. So what I have so far is timbersled front end and Fox Zero pro shocks I'm revmoing most of the foam from inside the sled I've ordered 20 tooth drivers and I'm told stock the XTX...

I look forward to hearing about how the Ohlins work out, I'm interested in them myself but really holding off because of the cost. Supposedly they are really difficult to dial in because of the wide variety of options. I also thought that the ZX2 might use a shock upgrade but haven heard of...
