You're not supposed to go to carburators, you're supposed to go from left hand grip to right hand throttle

Exactly what BACK COUNTRY YAMAHA said is the issue, if you don't have a gas smell you're not working it hard enough... :)

I guess you know alot about this and have done your homework..,so from experience (dealership) i've seen some early '16 Vipers, and no problems after this, after mapping and directing customers (all years) to change spark plugs and fully charging batteries most issues have went away. Hope this...

Adjust throttle cable freeplay, TORS is probably acting up

On early models yes, what is the build date ?

Bleed Blue!

I tottally agree. If you do the same research for a passenger seat for a Ltx Dx for example you won’t find it, but you will find the bumper with pockets for the seat. After, you have to go the the Viper to find the seat. No seats under the Sidewinder accessories at all.

Yes, same seat/options as Cat or SrViper Stx Dx 146

That drain hose can be an issue you're right, and also tipping it on it's side even if only for a few seconds will suck oil into the breather and create a suction, cleaning these hoses and the airbox/filter are crucial.

Idle and belt deflection are definately touchy/feely on this one...burping the throttle usually gets it done

Completely normal, they all do it

I had a chance to ride it and the combination is great! The new skis turn very well on the trail and the extra track feels like a 141. I wouldn't hesitate at all! Enjoy

Get clutches checked

I've also got a 2011 VK Pro, simply love it. 10 inch ski skins, goldfinger throttle,...it's a tank!

Non turbo...these engines pass all durability tests that Yamaha passes on all their engines.

Replaced starter, solenoid and ignition. Never had an issue after. Sent from my Lenovo B8080-F using Tapatalk

Your solenoid or ignition is staying on and your starter keeps spinning while driving which fries the starter. Seen it happen Sent from my Lenovo B8080-F using Tapatalk

Sorry haven't been able to make time for this. Leaving for a battery recharge til March 10th. Remind me to check for availability then. Thx

Ok...I've been waiting for the dealer to dig the parts out for two weeks now (I told him there was no worry) as soon as I can get ahold of him I will and give you his contact info if he has more. I'm leaving for vacation in 3 days, will do my best to get you the info before then.

Some Vipers kickback more than others when shutting off, you're this does cause premature wear but because the starter is not engaged it's harder on the one-way bearing then anything else. But when the oneway gets worn it's harder on the starter. There's no win here.
