    Will there be a 2021 Venom next year?

    Maybe. For years, since the demise of the Phazer, Yamaha has left a large gap in their lineup, missing out on the huge market in the 80-100hp segment that Skidoo's 900 ACE 4 stroke now dominates. But maybe Yamaha will have an answer next year. Every so often, I like to search trademark name...

    Leaving Yamaha

    After nearly a dozen years riding 4 -stroke Yamahas, I just finished making a deal for a leftover 2016 MXZX 1200. There are several reasons why, but I'm not going to elaborate now. I'm sure those that have read my posts over the years may have an idea why. Gotta say that this is a great...

    Viper turbo vs AC ZR9000 on Youtube

    I saw this video a while back and had to share. It pokes a little fun at Yamaha, but it's pretty entertaining. You may have to open it up on Youtube to watch it.

    2016 Yamaha Sidewinder

    Well, from time to time, I like to check out new snowmobile patents and trademark names filed by the 4 OEMs...and today I noticed a new trademark name, "Sidewinder", filed by Yamaha late last month. Trademark #86466763 Could this be the name of Yammy's new line of sleds? Or possibly, a term...

    Difficulty mounting 13mm swaybar

    Whew, spent about an hour trying to mount my new Pioneer 13mm swaybar on my 2011 Apex. I used a ratchet strap to get the bolt holes lined up with the swaybar link. I hope I did this right, lined up the links equally with the hash marks, but the suspension feels VERY stiff in the front now...

    Ski rubber diference between 2011 and 2010

    Can someone provide me with a picture of what the 2006-2010 Apexes ski rubbers look like? I'm having an issue where mine were split from the pressure of the aftermarket skis. I think the older ones are thicker and hopefully stronger and may try to use them versus the 2011s. Here's what mine...

    Access to throttle cable

    I just installed a riser on my new 2011 Apex and I had to reroute the throttle cable for clearance. I've noticed now that my throttle cable freeplay is too great and I have to adjust it, but there doesn't seem to be an adjustment nut midway through the cable like on my old Nytro. I understand...

    Nytro vs Nytro RTX price diff $3500?

    It's got to be an error...the Canadian website lists the RTX at $15000 and the standard at $11500. Surely the shock package doesn't warrant a $3500 price difference...does it?

    Super Rat weights concern - check yours

    Since I bought a new sled, I removed my clutch weights to return them to stock settings. I've put on maybe 2500km since installing the Super Rat weights last year. I noticed quite a bit of belt dust in the clutch compartment, as well as a buildup of belt rubber on the sheaves. I clean the...

    Ripsaw II reviews?

    I don't know how many guys own a 2012 Nytro RTX, but I was wondering if anyone has a review on the Ripsaw 2 track? I'm looking at buying a pre-studded track and the new Ice Attack XT track is based on the same design.

    Goodbye Nytro, hello new sled

    Well, after 7 years on a Yamaha, I went shopping seriously for a new 4 stroke sled from either Arctic Cat or Skidoo. My sleds, both a Vector and an FX Nytro had given me some grief both cost and maintenance wise, as I was always trying to make the sleds handle better and provide me with long...
