    2005 vector front skid shock

    Well I installed an Ohlins in the front of my skid and I'm thinking I installed it 180 degrees off since the refill nipple is pointing down at the track. I'm thinking it may rub the track. Is this installed wrong??

    Shock removal and installation with skid in place

    I'm just wondering if it's possible to remove and/or install the skid shocks with leaving the skid in place on a 2005 RS vector. It has a '06 pro active skid from a RS nytro in it which is the same as stock besides rear shock and stiffer springs. Looks like there's room to get to the bolts but...

    05 vector drive bearing sped sensor

    I was replacing the bearing on lower clutch side and I'm sure my new bearing isn't pressed in far enough. When looking underneath I see a gap that wasn't there with the old bearing but I can't get it to seat any farther?? Does this look normal or needs to. On on further?

    The old girl still runs!

    I decided it was time to freshen up the clutches on my 05 with some low mileage ones from Hibshman.(Thank you very much by the way!) tossed in my ulmer kit and did a little testing! Slight over rev but i was running down a packed road so I expect it to tone down on trail conditions. Here's a...

    Vector just got ripped in half!

    Well I had a super bad ride today with a bunch of friends. Snow conditions were bad with lots of snow dust. I came up on a stop sign with a police officer so I slowed down and came to a complete stop when all of a sudden a guy behind me on a Firecat hit me from behind at 70! His spindle caught...

    Can a 500 rpm overrev up top be caused by a worn belt???

    My vector with ulmer clutch kit has developed an overrev up top. When i installed the kit it was hitting right around 8600 up top and after 2000 miles it now is climbing to 9100+. A friend mentioned maybe the belt was getting worn after 2000 miles since I put a new one on with the kit. I...

    Loose snow, warm weather, over rev up top

    Well Tuesday we went for a 170 mile ride and it was warm out mid to upper 40's so the trails were extremely loose! I noticed at WOT I was over reving to about 9100 to 9200 RPM's. I am running an Ulmer clutch kit that worked great on hard packed trails in cooler temps it ran about 8700 to 8900...

    Plastic Tips on Rails question?????

    During a long ride my sled developed a plastic sounding ticking coming from the right side of the sled towards the front. It's really noticeable at about 15 mph and as you get on the gas it eventually disappears. And it's not the cam tensioner as I replaced that last year. I went to look at...

    Klim Powercross Glove

    I was just wondering if anyone is using the Klim powercross glove. I have hot handwarmers and Powermadd handguards with extensions so keeping warm isn't much of an issue. Just wondering if they're worth the $90 to pick up a pair. Lost my coldwave race gloves which I loved because they were not...
