I recently installed the hurricane high flow fuel pump kit on a friends sled.
We are having issues with it cutting out when you stab the gas and also sometimes going down hill.
Sometimes with a full tank of gas it will work great for a while.
I’ve already checked the fuel line from the...
Hey guys and girls.
I had my new 2021 ltx gt out for the second trip. Sled works great up till the last night.
Went in the warming hut to have a pop. Left my light on ( which I have done many times ) for like 20 mins. My buddy has always left his on for hours standing around the trail and...
Got a buddy’s sled here. It won’t pick up fuel after she’s down around half tank.
I know it must have something to do with the pickups. Just wondering if anyone had this issue before I pull the pump out.
Has anyone added a heated seat to a sidewinder that did not originally have one
if you did can you let me know what you orderd and what you had to do.
Thank you guys and girls
Received my new ltx gt
I thought I’d check my sled over , glad I did.
The chain adjuster was screwed in tight! Not backed off at all. Secondly the chain case was half empty.
I know your gonna say that’s pdi and I agree but I dought many dealers do this. So check them !
I’m looking to add some headlights to a sidewinder I have.
I can find lots of light options but no company make brackets to fit the sidewinder.
In the pics I have are off another sled with custom made brackets. Does anyone know where I can get a set of lights and brackets made for the...
im up north this week.
today we had the strangest series of events, we headed out on piston ally , wide open. at the end of the 20 mile ally two of the winders in the group threw sd 24 code. the code is for a throttle switch.
the code wont clear on either machine. can anyone give a hand on...
I have a nytro here that is acting super weird.
When started cold. It will run decent. Idle at 1500. And rev up and down. But once the sled gets hot it won’t idle well and hold rpm at 4500. Every time. The only thing I can do to bring it down is shut it off.
I’ve checked throttle bodies...
I’ve taking a lot of nytro and Apex clutches apart but these sidewinders are a lot different.
the two sheeves are loctited together with retaining compound.
I’ve tried warming the clutch with a torch but that compound in unbelievably tuff.
Anyone with a successful way of disassembling...
Hey all , summers over its almost time
I am looking for input on DIY modifying the stock muffler for free flow. I know there are many company's that will do it but prices are crazy. Has anyone done it themselves?
Thanks
Hope your all enjoying your summer and saving the trail cash for winter.
I'm going to get into my sled this summer. I'm up there in kms now and looking for any input on high mileage preventative maintenance.
items on my agenda so far
- new track
- brake caliper bearing (again)
-chain case gears...
let me tell you a story about a sidewinder named “orange you glad” orange for short.
The 270 flash is absolutely bonkers fast mid range right to top. You don’t get bord of this girl.
This flash seems to run big boost right away and keep pulling. Very snappy a snotty. Corner to corner it...
we had a great opportunity to got testing sidewinders in the mountain trails this weekend up north (New Brunswick)
The stock muffler td powertrail flash worked very well. It’s a great trail flash that comes on easy but pulls and pulls up top where the stock sled ran out.
I’m using dalton...
Hey ty ! I hope the summer is treating you all well.
I’m in the garage now and it’s maintenance time. The front end of my 17 Ltx is slopped out!
Has anyone found oil light bushing kits like the apex had?
Any other ideas?
The stock ones are poooooo.
Thanks ty
I’m up in Quebec and my sled is popping out of gear. I checked the chain tension and it seems like the tension is almost gone , I can turn the bolt all the way in by hand.
There is 7000 miles on the chain.
Any input would be great.
just got a call from a friend , his oil filter started leaking after sitting on the trailer for a week.
We changed the oil approx 300 miles before the leak. He said he grabbed the filter and was able to get maybe a quarter turn on it and the leak stopped.
There is no old o ring up there and I...
Isn't the old saying " I'm just stock with a bit of clutching"? The winder fits the mold.
We have been doing some clutching to try to make an upgrade that is affordable but productive !
So far we have only changed the secondary helix and spring out with dalton products in two sidewinders...
Last year I was having a lot of clutch issues.
I blew 7 belts and the clutches just never felt right. Terrible shift and just not fast.
I'm trying to make a setup that is cheap but effective on a stock sidewinder.
The setup I'm using now is the ultimax xs belt with Dalton reverse angle 33/35...
just posting a reminder to everyone with miles on from last year. Take your chain case apart and clean the magnets while changing fluid. The magnets build up with metal filings and chew a round hole in the cover.
I used to just suck the oil out of the chain case to change it. After seeing...
2017 sidewinder. 5300 miles.
this is the front drive axle with the brake caliper and bearing removed. i noticed this was bad when i was changing the slides. when i pulled the skid out there was alot of play in the bearing. i thought for sure the bearing was destroyed. find out the bearing was...
