    any ideas to keep skid plate fastened up tight?

    Habs where did you get the well nuts and did you drill out existing holes to get the right fit? Seems I have to do this fix as well! I assume you got 3/8 length and 1/2 wide? Thanks

    Part number for Rear heat exchanger for an 06 Attak

    Just got one from my dealer for 06 attAk and was pleasantly surprised it was couple bucks over a 100. I had leak in old one and first thought about getting cross over tube to save money... However when he priced it for me it was cheaper to buy new exchanger. Anyway that's in NS Canada.

    magneto rotor cover

    Darv have you ever opened up rotor cover or done work this area? Not to be rude but there is oil there and it is perfectly normal... I don't know the why or the design decision but there is an opening to the interior of the engine behind the stator and no seal or anything else that prevents...

    magneto rotor cover

    Darv I am no expert mechanic but I did replace my stator and had this side of the engine open a couple times. There is only a seal or rather a gasket around the cover to prevent oil leakage to the outside. The stator does in fact get oiled by the engine oil. Anyone else here could chime in but I...

    magneto rotor cover

    Yes there is oil in that area and is designed that way. It's not a lot and not much holding there etc but it is definitely a oiled area on your engine and will leak. I replaced stator there once and had a bAd gasket which caused a leak for me. If you have a crack you could probably get away with...

    06 apex hard starting

    Sounds like crank sensor for sure! People had problems with ones from rm stator but the issue is not with it malfunctioning just that it sits approx 1mm further away with the mounting holes a little different then Original. You can use s file to open the mounting holes and move sensor just a...

    Reverse Problem help wanted.

    It's not a big problem at least it wasn't when I had this issue. You just need to adjust your linkages as previous people suggested. There is a fine line between too tight and too loose. Yours is adjusted a little tight which causes it to stick in reverse.. Too loose and it will jump out of...

    HELP: 2006 Apex ER stall issue

    I agree TBay... It took me some time to go threw that thread but it was very helpful.. A short sticky with people's symptoms and the above possible solution would be helpful to many with higher mileage sleds. My two cents :)

    HELP: 2006 Apex ER stall issue

    Yeah the co settings have fixed this issue for many people! I found this thread a while back and did the co setting fix which vastly improved my idle! Perhaps with so many higher mileage sleds having this issue it should be a sticky...

    jackshaft bearing

    Yes if bearing went and speedo sensor got chewed then no speed signal to ECU and engine will quit. At least that's what happened to me. Engine was working perfectly but when you tried to accelerate it died because no speed signal to ecu. Once I replaced bearing and bought new sensor everything...

    greesing sealed bearing

    Soooo Black Knight did you ever try to remove or drill the metal seals on driveshaft bearing? I was doing maintenance and wanted to regrease bearings as I had in the past but realized the last time I changed the lower driveshaft bearing the yamaha dealer gave me one with a metal seal! Just...

    Front end bushings

    It is a front hole that's the problem. I did see the bulkhead saver kit and was going to get it for insurance but wasn't sure it would help the sloppy bushing. I see that it locks the head of the bolt in place so I guess this would work. I would like to do both secure the bushing and get the...

    Front end bushings

    My mistake it is not oilite but nylatron bushings I got from pioneer performance... I heard one person had actually drilled the hole a little bigger and had a part machined to fit opening with the bushing then fit snugly into machined part. This is beyond my resources however.

    Front end bushings

    Hi everyone, I was replacing front end bushings on my 2006 attak and found so far the lower bulkhead opening on the right has been rounded or worn and now the brand new olite bushing won't fit! It is loose and falls right out. Is there anything one can do to make this bushing fit snug again...

    code 12

    Did you finally fix your problem? I also replaced mine last year with rmstator and if you have problems it is because the pickup coil sensor or also called crankshaft position sensor is a little further away from magnet when it's installed. You need to grind or open the install bracket holes in...

    Drain plug

    Had same problem on 2006 attak... Someone suggested heat by starting engine and warming up to operating temp. It worked like a charm. Let it run until I felt it was good and warm then it broke free relativity easy. Stopped there and waited for it to cool then removed fully and drained... You...

    Cranksensor?

    Very simple to check.... I just used tape to measure distance of oem one before you take it out. I measured from tip of sensor to stator.. I bought stator and sensor from rm stator in Quebec and the only issue was I had to file or open the bolt holes on sensor a little to get it approx 3/4 of a...

    Need a lot of help on apex!

    Not to hijack the thread.. and still wondering did you get your sled going and was it a crank sensor issue??? But again I will reiterate when I first had the sled I was also guilty of starting the sled many times in summer etc.. just to hear that sound lol and I have never had a plug...

    Need a lot of help on apex!

    I have a comment to make based on reading many many hours on TY forums... I see many people talking about fouling the plugs on the yamaha four stroke and I have to say that I have had various problems with my sled and have turned a wrench on most every part! But I was not that familiar with plug...

    Need a lot of help on apex!

    As kidastra asked is new stator and crank sensor oem? Very important as most aftermarket specs for sensor is off by very little but makes a world of difference! I know from experience. Most likely you can file open the mounting bracket bolt holes for crank sensor and get it a little closer to...
