GPS I have a Magellan Meridan Color and this thing is great, I hunt, fish, ride and travel. You can load highway information and topo on this, unit has more options than I can remember and always gets me there and back with out a doubt the best hand held unit I have seen and very user...

Battery Used a battery tender trickle charger.

I have a dead battery in my 05 Venture. The sled only has 900 miles on it and I have been very good about charging the battery as per the instructions. Every two weeks during the summer. It started the sled last month and this month dead, doesn't seem to want to take a charge either. Anyone...

Funny thing is it worked fine on the trailer when I brought it back from the dealer, it was after I ran the sled in the field and then tried to start it back up and then it would not start with out moving. I assume that it happens after you have ridden it. I will keep trying to call the dealer...

He is a great guy and does great work but he is a one man show and it is hard to get a hold of him. I just thought someone might have a quick fix that I could try while I was trying to get a hold of him. Don't have enough snow to ride but I want to be ready when it comes.

I just had the kit put on my clutch to get that annoying rattle out of it and the first time I pulled the sled out of the garage after waxing and cleaning it up the clutch seems to stay engaged. I ran it up and down the field to see if that would do anything but no luck the only way I can get...

Picks I had the dealer put the tunnel protectors on my Venture just in case I decided later to stud the track. I am glad I had him do it. He tells me it was a bear and did not know why they did not come from the factory already installed. I did not stud the track as it grabs very well so...

Silver Rx I bought my new Venture for $7800.00 during power surge program. You might want to check with another dealer on the price. If I remember right the MSRP was $8200.00 originally. Keep looking I am sure you could save some cash. :yam: :4STroke: :rocks:

Helmet problems I have had the same problem with mine. I cut a small slit on the top of the face cover and it fit more snugly on my face and cut the amount of breath by passing the breath collector. Also I was noticing that the front face shield was not closing all the way and blocking off...

Venture My buddy got his Venture up to 106 MPH on the lake with less than perfect conditions. 50 degrees and wet snow. Good thing his wife wasn't on the back!

Has anyone been to the Yamaha Demo day yet. We had one recently so I made a point to speak to the rep about the clutch noise on my Venture. He proceeded to tell me to call my dealer and have him call his RTA and ask for the kit for the clutch. Well the dealer never heard of such a thing and...

Thanks everyone for your replies. No I don't have the track studded and we don't really have a lot of snow to ride in. So my best guess is that the fact that we are riding on marginal snow and the base is mostly ice, that if we had some more snow maybe some of the track noise would disappear...

Funny you say that I was feeling the same thing you described this weekend. My wife also does not like that fact that there is so much room between the two of us, she is much colder than what she use to be. I previously rode a Polaris touring and we were a little closer together and I blocked...

Yes my RS Venture did the same thing this week end, it was -18 when I started the machine, it took me a bit to get her running and as soon as the engine started I had no lights or gages. After a few minutes they came on didn't have a problem after that. My understanding is that it has to do...

Has anyone else notice the excessive track noise while riding there RS Venture. I had previously ridden a two stroker and one of the reasons for purchasing a four stroke was to enjoy a little quieter ride. Well that hasn't happened, the smell is gone the engine noise is gone but the track...

Venture Tunnel Protectors Good luck with those protectors, I had them put on by the dealer and it took him 2.5 hours. It was the first set he put on, he tried to give them to me to put on and I told him he was crazy. I also thought it was pretty sad that we pay all that money for a sled and...

Anyone having problems with the Venture and inside ski lift? The dealer set the suspension to the medium setting on all the track suspension but left the ski's at the lowest setting possible. Should that be moved also to the medium setting? I have noticed quite a bit of ski lift on the short...

Back rest I leave my seat on when I ride single! Where are you going to put all the other guys when their sleds break down on the trail? You can throw them on the back of yours give them a nice ride and charge them for the gas. Next thing you know you will all be riding Yamaha then you can...

Ride I hope it rides nice for what we paid. I switched from a Polaris X-tra 12 to this new sled for the new suspension and new engine. I agree it is great looking but looks don't help your back after a long ride especially on the trails I ride. I just had the dealer put tunnel protectors on...

Overheating I wish I had some snow to try my sled in. We have gotten nothing but rain and wind. As soon as I can get out and ride I will be more than happy to give you some feed back on the over heating problem. I am riding a new Venture. We need big snow bring it on baby. :yam: :4STroke:
