Put about 25 miles on the new toy today. I figured if I bought a dirtbike, it would snow for sure. Sorry guys, I tried :o| I did find a good use for my old Mach Z gear though!!

Just a heads up for anyone with an RX1 w/ reverse (not sure on an APEX). I was just checking over my 03 shorty for the 100th time since I can't ride the friggin thing without snow, and noticed a major design flaw. The main coolant hose coming out of the thermostat housing and over the brake...

Anyone got a link to a Yammi parts fiche with prices instead of just part numbers for our sleds?? Thanks in advance.

Anyone running the Yammi red windscreen on a red 03 RX1? I can't tell from the pic if the red matches the 03 red paint or the 05 candy red paint. Anyone got one on an 03, and if so, is it a close match?? Thanks guys.

OK, I am about half a split decision away from dropping a grand on the Bender Reaction rear skid for my 03 shorty. She's mint and still low miles. Rides decent with the upgrades I got, but that mono looks real tempting. I would really appreciate input from the guys that went through with the...

Just got this months American Snowmobiler mag. They got a little article entitled "Yamaha enters Snocross. Its an artical about Jesse Strege (condolances) and the pimped out Nytro (if you can still call it a Nytro. Nothing left but the engine and Yammi stickers) running at Eagle River. Old...

The more I think about it, I wish the other manufacturers would NOT produce 4-strokes. Will it push Yamaha to stay ahead of the game and make a better product? Maybe, but I miss pulling up to the gas pumps and having 10 guys come over to see what I was riding and what was under the hood making...

Hi guys / Gals, I've decided to begin this process sooner then later. I haven't talked to Mr. Sled so I'm not sure if we're gonna call this an official TY ride-in or not, but I'm sure he will chime in and let us know one way or another. I'm looking at dates of Feb. 11th or 12th, or Feb...

Has anyone got their Bender Mono in their sled yet? If so, how is it compared to the Yammi mono? If not, HOW COME?????

Any one put the new Low Red windscreen on an 03? I can't tell from the pics if it is 03 / 04 red or 05 candy red???? Anyone done it? Its a lot of $$ to spend and have it look like Hell. BTW, has anyone else noticed in the 06 DVD, the red Vector Mountain turns into a red Apex mountain and...

Hi guys. I have a 1996 V-Max 600 XT that I used to run before getting my RX1 two years ago. I bought the V-Max with a ckutch kit already in it. Not sure what brand, both springs are all white, no marks, helix appears to be stock?? Anyway, the sled turns 7000 plus all the time, no matter what...

Well, Northern Vermont woke up to frozen ground and 6 in. of fluffy snow. Not great riding snow, but enough to cover the grass in the back field so I couldn't resist. As most of you know I went to the BOSS highrise widetop, 8 in. art riser and Cat bars over the Summer. Along with a complete...

OK, help me here guys. I fired up the sleds last night (RX1 and VMax 600 XT) and standing there in a large blue ploom of smoke (the VMax, not the RX1 LaLaLa ), I realized I kinda miss the smell of a 2 stroke. Is it the weather (80 and sunny in Vermont today! In October, WTF???) or am I...

Hi Guys, Is winter here yet? I've spent about the last 3 weeks getting everything I had planned to do done. Just about there. OK, here's the list. Every bolt, nut, rivet, washer, zip tie has been inspected, cleaned and fixed if needed. BOSS high rise wide top seat, Power Madd 8 in. art...

Hey Guys, OK, here's what I got. '03 shorty, Hauck Magnum roller secondary, OSO primary turning 10,500. 128 studs. All else is stock. Now here's the question: I weigh 165 and travel light on mainly groomed trails. I do occasionally drag and would like to keep the drag performance I...

Hey guys, I need a longer throttle cable for my '03 RX1 shorty. Any of our members sell them? How much and how do I pay. Paypal is ideal for me. Thanks :rocks:

Hi guys, I need electrical guru help. I bought a set of Cat SnoPro bars for my RX1. They come with grip warmers already on. Can I get away with just plugging them into the Yamaha harness? If I need to run a separate circuit, what is needed besides a power source and 3 way switch? Also if...

Hi Guys, Once again I am seeking help in your infinite wisdom. I have a set of Cat SnoPro bars coming for my RX1. Gonna mount them on an art. 8 in. riser with a BOSS seat for that rider forward feel. Anyway, the Cat bars come with the hooks bent into the bars and the warmers already...

Hi guys, I've searched through all the posts on this topic and don't see anything recent about NOS. The kits look to be between $600.00 and $700.00 total. Thats not bad for 35 - 60 + HP. My questions are these. Has this been a reliable mod, and in my mind this would be all a guy would...

I got a question about the battery relocation mod. Who's done theirs as instructed on this site with the small, dry cell battery moved up inside the bulkhead? If you have, has it been a reliable mod? I wonder about using a dry cell battery that wasn't designed to be "quick charged" by an...
