    RS mechanical cam chain tension problem bulletin

    To be exact it was Dec 2007 at 22,127 miles. I had the entire sled looked at in preparation for the Guinness run which started at 22,605 miles. During that maintenance period, the oil tank was replaced due to an oil leak, and had the valve check performed (3 exhaust valves were tight and...

    Toronto snowmobile show October 17-20

    Hi Guy's, Sounds like I would have had a great time in Toronto. My wife also has relatives in the Toronto area as well. Unfortunately, I needed to stay home and complete a few projects before the snow starts to fly up here. It won't be long. It's very cool to go to shows and hang out...

    New M9 yamaha ski

    I've been running 6" shaper bars and have found them a bit on the aggressive side for the RS Venture GT. I have a set of 4" and 6" Magnum's which are more rounded bar stock than shapers. I'm going to play around with these sets to determine what fits best on the newer RS Venture in...

    2009 rs venture gt suspension setup

    Harder to steer. Shims will help. What I have experienced is that the front end is light just a tad with the OEM skis. If you are going to keep the OEM skis, I would loosen the center shock spring two turns and then put a stud boy shaper bars or dualies on the skis. Loosing the center...

    Toronto snowmobile show October 17-20

    Hello Sean, Good point! Curve Industries products are not just for Yam's. No prejudice around the Curves camp. Kind of reminds me of the old BASF commercial. "Curve Industries doesn't make snowmobiles...They make them better." I know I would have had a superb time with the both of...

    Curve Industries New Product Release - The Leading Edge

    The "leading edge" is designed for extreme hard pack rock hard conditions when the carbide and runner is the only thing working. The "leading edge" prepares the surface ahead of the runner and carbides, so the runner doesn't fall into an already existing groove in a rock hard snow and ice...
