Venture 2
It depends on what your trying to achieve. For the best ride, which is my goal, set the transfer rods to about maximum transfer, about 1 inch of rod showing buy the adjustment nuts with suspension hanging (not touching the ground). Have rear suspension springs set as light as...
Went for first ride with 144" quiet track. It's Quieter,. Last season I had already installed the larger dia. rubber polaris wheels and I would agree with other riders who have said that that helps maybe 50% in volume but that rolling pulsating sound was still there. With the quiet track the...
For 08 Arctic cat has 144 inch tracks on its touring machines. They have the quiet track ramps in them. You can get them only through Cat dealers. I got mine through online cat dealer. It's a hacksaw not ripsaw, only 1 inch lugs not 1.250, that might help with slide wear by not being off the...
Don't forget to put in new seals on chain case. they are cheap insurance. Pay attention to how far in the seals are located when installed by the factory so you can install them the same.
I have also experienced the cold right foot. This is due to the fact that there is an easy path for cold air from the vent in the hood that is directly above the oil tank ,through the engine compartment and out by your right foot. A little duct tape over that vent on colder days takes care of...
Just finished putting new exhaust doughnuts in my RS Venture(6800 miles)not to bad of a job, but I found out during reasembly that exhaust clamps were still loose. That could be the whole problem in the first place. I ground about .060 off of the spacer that the clamp bolt goes through and that...
I have purchased a 144 hacksaw quiet track for my RS Venture. I"m half way through the installation. Am waiting for chaincase seal. I'l let you know how it sounds.
To TTW After I looked at the YAMAHA brochure I realized my problem does not apply to you. Maybe its just the RS venture but possibly also the vector that has the plastic guide wheel where the torsion spring lays right behind the front outside boogie wheel that will slip up do to its design
To TTW I also have high HY-fax wear on my 05 venture. Was looking at the suspension and figuring ut how to mount a pair of extra polaris whees that I had laying around in front of the rear...
I rode a T660 turbo touring Cat and the track on that is 99% quieter than the RS Venture. Whats up with that? The cat has a lot more boogie wheels and they are rubber.
RS Venture vs T660 Cat
Iride with a guy with T660 turbo Touring. When we race on the lake with two people on each machine the
Venture pulls it about three sled at the start then the turbo gains back about one sled length in the middle and they are almost the exactly the same on top speed. My...
I also think the track noise on the RS Venture is excessive, especially between 40 and 60 Mph. I've had six different year Polaris touring sleds the last one was an 03 800touring and after the recall for the rear wheel kit it was pretty quiet at speed when you had the throttle in the sweet spot
I bought my first Yamaha this year,an 05 RS Venture. I just realized it doesn't have the saddless skis like the pictures in the brochure. Mine has the aluminum saddle like the 600 venture pictured in the brochure. Does anybody think one is better than the other or doesn't it make any differance...
