    Sidewinder Year to Year Performance

    The higher/updated spindles on the 25 will ride/handle better than the 19. Even though the spindles are higher, the 25 will corner flatter with less roll and ski lift. Unless you are looking to create Guinness Book speed records, imo changing your 25 to mimic your 19 will not be a good return...

    O2 Sensor/Wideband Issues

    The new wideband module I ordered from TD arrived yesterday. I plugged it into my sledi and....BAM....it worked like a charm. The sled is fixed. Again ....I tried the new wideband module that I wired with the factory plugs. Still no go. I tested the original O2 Sensor that I had in the...

    Yes, some wear and tear on the wheels from studs, as previous owner studded the track. I pulled off the 1.25 and installed a leaner SRX track. Now.....it's got one stud.....me.....the driver!! Lol

    I've had the same thoughts......using an oscillating tool to cut them, but was afraid to jack it up. You might have the opportune time in the short future to to test your cutting skills on a section of bad track. Keep me posted on the results.

    Sidewinder Year to Year Performance

    I cut mine up to the quiet pads, so the track measures 14.25 inches. If I could invent a way to nicely cut off the quiet pads I would, but the jury is still out. I haven't been able to measure how much difference cutting the track makes, but I'll say......it doesn't slow it down.

    Great point Fatchance. Sometimes when traffic is slow on TY, I comb through the forums on Spacebook and acquire a renewed appreciation for this site. Some of the tricks they share there........I just chuckle and shake my head Recently, there was a guy advertising a straight 35 helix, which...

    Sidewinder Year to Year Performance

    True story.... March of 2019 I was slated to take a 5 day saddlebag trip. The weather turned sour and the weatherman was calling for warm temps and rain. I cancelled my trip, but was stuck talking my vacation time. The first day of my vacation it was raining and 40 degrees. With nothing else...

    Sidewinder Year to Year Performance

    I agree with RH. Imo....the 19s are about 2-3 mph faster than the other years. The 19 SRX had different rails than other models. It sat lower to the ground, the skid was flatter, the frontend had different spindles that made it sit lower, which was conducive for speed. Once in the 140s, the...

    ADAPT Verses TAPP

    Great question: My initial reasoning to running the Yamaha primary was because I had plenty of weights to tune the Yamaha primary. It worked well, but in my opinion the belt temps were higher than I liked when operating the sled spiritedly. I was using stock Yamaha weights with larger helix...

    Need help… no boost

    Being that all 3 read 150psi, I would lean towards the gage reading low? It would be tough to have all 3 pistons hurt equally?

    O2 Sensor/Wideband Issues

    Earthling, I think I now understand what you mean by canbus, as in the harness, there are 2 wires intertwined/wrapped together strategically. I thought this was done intentionally to create some sort of resistance and tried my best to maintain the same wrap when splicing the old harness to the...

    O2 Sensor/Wideband Issues

    While trying to figure things out I powered and grounded the AEM Module to a separate battery and still no dice. I went to another sled with wideband/O2 sensor and both my new/old modules would not work. This led me to believe both modules were faulty, but I could be wrong...... I'm glad you...

    O2 Sensor/Wideband Issues

    Thanks for chiming in. I tried 2 different sensors with the same results. I spoke with a tech at AEM and he told me the controller was bad. I bought another controller, albeit, the plugs were different, rewired it with my old harness and still same issue. So....figured issue was with...

    Great idea Steve, but it appears my O2 sensor might be good. I've edited the post.

    Pull the trigger on a 998 or 900R?

    Great write up RH! I'm guilty of writing that quote.....I hope I didn't offend you, as my intention was only to spark a little humor. The biggest reason the 998 is such a success is because of this forum. Well....let me rephrase.....because of the PEOPLE that make up this forum. Well.....let...

    O2 Sensor/Wideband Issues

    Does anyone have a part number to a quality O2 sensor with a short cord that fits perfectly? I hate having to tie up a bunch of slack in the cord Years ago someone provided a part # here, but I'm unable to find the post. I've changed the title and edited my post, as I didn't want to create...
