    What is this plastic piece?

    The little plastic I’ve circled is busted on one side and want to replace it but I can’t find it on a parts diagram. It’s the black plastic piece the push pin goes through. If anyone knows a part number that would be great.

    HID headlight issue driving me crazy

    Okay so before I just rip the dash out and install a 40” light bar to be dramatic someone tell me why my hids hate me this year. I installed a set of ddm tuning hids two years ago in my 2010 vector that worked great until the end of last season. When you start the sled they both fire up then...

    In line coolant heater

    Has anyone put one of the in line coolant heaters in their viper? If so does it work on really cold night like it does on Apex and vectors? Trying to figure out a way to not have to worry when it's -50 next winter.

    Bumper and skid plate

    I read several threads about people's various bumper and skid plate setup. Now that everyone has some miles on their sled what setups are working good? Also which damn line do you fill the coolant too? There's three marks then like a notch where it says full cold. Who designed that tank???

    A arm or spindle or something else bent?

    Was riding a couple weeks ago and caught the side of a burle on a tree with my right ski. I thought the bottom right a arm was bent so I bought a used one to swap out. Got the a arm and it looked good so I went at swapping them out this weekend but can't get everything to line up. I had to cut...

    Possible front cooler leak

    2010 vector ltx gt question: I noticed last weekend a very small amount of blue liquid under the sled but couldn't determine the source of the leak. Got it in the garage all unthawed started it up let it run for 20 minutes and saw one drip of coolant. Set a bucket under that spot and left it...

    Coolant hose covers

    Has anyone put the newer style (2011 and up if I'm correct) rear cooler hose covers on an older version? I've got a 2010 vector that I put a tunnel extension on, cut the old style at the bends so it would lay on the running boards. Looked really nice until my rack ripped it off lol. So rather...

    Hot grips/handlebar compatibility question

    I'm working on rebuilding a 97 700 vmax sx as a spare sled that I'll end up selling at the end of winter. I'm trying to avoid sinking any more money then I have to in it. So my question is. Has anyone used a set of handlebars and or the heated grips off a newer apex on the old sleds? I'm sure...

    Cross country track

    So I found a smoking deal on a brand new 144 x 1.5 camoplast cross country track on Craigslist. Such a great deal I bought it figuring that if I couldn't make it work I could easily get my money out of it. It's an old style every third window closed track. I've read many threads on here of...

    Powder jacks

    I'm looking for something like a powder jack for getting unstuck? I've never needed one until this past weekend, we landed a sled sideways in a partially frozen stream with 5 ft banks on both sides. Fought trying to get it out for over an hour before a group of guys stumbled past and was able to...

    How tall a lug with tunnel protectors

    I've got a 2010 vector LTX that I’m trying to figure out best what to do with before the snow falls. My original thought was to extend it to a 151 and put a bigger lug on it but after doing some research I don’t think that’s the right way to go. I have the option to swap an XTX skid in to the...

    2010 Vector LTX GT 151" extension questions

    I saw some threads about people extending the monoshock I but I'm looking at extending the monoshock II. I'm hoping to extend to a 151" track and by looking at Hartmans website it looks like I could run a 2.25" lug. Has anyone tried running the new 9940m camoplast track? If a 16" wide track...

    2011 and up apex xtx tow options

    Alright so I need to make a decision on doing some sort of tow hitch on this xtx. I know they make a kit with the bolt but I want to use a pintle hitch. Has anyone used one of the dual bumper tow setups that yamaha made for the 06-10 apexs on the newer models?

    Switching from Apex to Nytro

    So I've got 7000 miles of riding on my Attak and I'm thinking its time to find a new ride. I know these motors last forever I'm just thinking I need something different in the garage. I've modified my 07 attak to include an m10 suspension with a 141 1.75" but looking to get something longer at...

    17.5" shocks on 07 attak

    So I've been looking for the last year at new shocks for an 07 attak. It just has the standard coilovers with 7k miles on them. I found a set of fox floats 17.5"ctc I know stock is 16.5" has anyone tried changing to this setup? And if so how was the handling and ride performance afterwards...

    07 attak gt track suggestions

    I have a stock 07 attak gt minus the m10 141" suspension I put in. I'm looking for a new track as the 136" ripsaw has 6000 miles and a lot of torn lugs. I'm looking for something with a larger lug like a 1.5 or 1.75 for all the powder up here. I do 50/50 groomed trails and swamps/rivers. What...
