Hmm 6.9s work great for me on the trails regardless of the conditions. I have 2500 to 3000 miles on them. I just need to shim them so they work better in deep powder.

You are exactly right. I have 6.9s on my apex and it won't steer at all in deep powder. You can see the ski pointing up in the powder. Trimming the the rubber to get the ski more level should help for sure. I plan on doing it, just haven't done it yet. I rarely ride powder but would like to...

Ive got the premium trunk bag sma-8fc63-dx-00 that is very nice. Can't see why it would work on the 11 xtx.

Check the FAQ page. There should be topic on how to shim the skis.

You need to shim them so they angle up slightly, it will reduce darting as well.

Yeah your mileage is really low for them to fail. I replaced mine at about 4500 miles but they really didn't need it, but since its a lot of work just to check I figured I might as well replace them while I had it torn down.

If I fired up my kerosene torpedo heater in garage for an extended time my Apex would be a bear to start. And when it did start it would run really rough for a minute or so.

Finger tight and back off one facet of the nut.

If I remember it was the longest so hole 1. My bro-in-law still has his 2006 RS Nytro. I'll try to check his.

I live near Pioneer and have had them revalve my Ohlins mono twice. 2 years ago I asked for a slightly stiffer revalve from stock. It helped the bottoming but i had to ride full compression 90% of the time. This year I asked for it be even stiffer. Even though I only weigh 170(without gear)...

Good info. I've never ran my mine to completely empty but I have put on about 120 miles. The light typically comes on at about 90 miles when riding in groomed trail conditions.

It is on the site somewhere. Check FAQ. The procedure is the same for Apex or RX1. So if you see one for the RX1 its the same.

It must be a leak around the shield. The only time I notice that is when I didnt close the shield properly. It needs a good slam to lock it down and seal properly, you can hear it sort of click when sealed.

I cut old hifax in about 8" strips and laid them in between the ski guides to give the track lugs something to catch.

Good luck. I loved my ZRs. My ZR 900 was an awesome machine. None of Yamaha's handled the trail like it could. I honestly miss it.

It can be adjusted. There are threaded arms on the linkage from the lever to chain chase

Buy an extra coolant hose. Install the heater in the hose before hand, it's a little easier. you can also put it back to stock if you want when you sell or trade it in.

Ohlin shock has no clip or cam settings.

Spring rating doesn't matter. Measure the length of the spring with the back of the sled lifted. Then lower the sled and measure the spring with you and FULL gear sitting on sled(you will need a friend). When preload is set properly the difference should be 40-45 mm

I'm not sure what makes others wear out quicker but I replaced mine at 4500 miles and they really weren't bad. But since I had it torn apart it didn't make sense not to replace them.
