    RIP Don VX1R

    Well #*$&@. Haven't been here in ages and come back to read this. Didn't know the guy but loved his sled builds. RIP and condolences to his friends and family. Had a heart attack myself back in May. Scary to think of.

    What exact Hurricane tune is this.

    Super Spool! 3bar sensor, maybe stock muffler since only 240. I would guess. Thats what I would buy if I was starting over.

    Early dyno reports (850R)

    You clarified better some of the points I was trying to make. Especially the smell. Coming from a 97 SX700 my Reima Yamaha coat smelled like 2 stroke until the 2nd Apex (Attak) I bought and it lived in the garage. Now my gear bag has basically no odor from the mountain trips with all 2Ss and...

    Did you guys see the new Cat Catalyst?

    In back country riding weight is extremely relevant. Too early to make any real claims about durability but the 600 is getting very good reviews in the mountains where it is riding amongst 850s and 850 Turbos with plenty of Poo 9Rs thrown in. If I'm in the market next spring I would order an...

    Early dyno reports (850R)

    Yes. Thanks to the 998T. Been riding out west for last few years and my Mistress, the Winder, is very lonely holed up in Maine. We have 5 turbo skidoos in the trailer which have been frankly flawless for the years we have had them (riding mountains in Utah and Montana). My Winder shares a...

    Big Iron Shootout March 2023

    Any TY members in the video? I would think a Winder MTX would be bad #*$&@ on the chutes. Looked like 2 of 3 Propexs went home on a rope - not engine failure.

    Theres nothing like a successful saddlebag trip.

    Mach Z not stock king of the lake.

    Glad the stupid boost posts with useless videos are gone. Go blow your horn on a Boost site. Maybe you'll inspire someone more tolerable to post some actual valid results.

    gauge swap

    Or fashion a JB Weld repair. I had to repair the tab on my Apex headlight from taking a pretty huge unexpected, and luckily successful, flight once and lo and behold BOP actually makes a repair kit for that. Meaning that a common weak point may have been solved by some other Macguyver somewhere...

    Your Macgyver special

    Raided hotel maintenance shop for tubing, pipe clamps and sealant to patch a hole in an Apex crossover tube from thrown stud and got antifreeze at 1am in Quebec convenience store to ride last 115 miles the next day back to truck and trailer.

    Food for thought/ 2023&2024 yamacat

    Until there is a dramatic new development in battery tech electric vehicles are doomed. They serve niches and would service ski resorts fairly well but energy density vs petrochemicals is laughable. Not to mention cold weather performance. Electric vehicles mile for mile emit more CO2. If you...

    New ski-doo

    Definitely useful to see riding buddies on a screen I have a 22 Backcounty XRS. Haven't put much miles on it but its no Winder. On the other hand its better for a crossover because its light and practically disposable (for $15K). The Winder is like a BMW M7 while the BCXRS is like a Subaru...

    Not sure what you mean but I'm 100% sure I record all the time NOT through Youtube then post directly from my phone or from my laptop.
