Hmm, the plot is thickening as I dig more. '15 and '16 have different part numbers for the front arm as well as the lower shaft for the front arm. Further, it appears that the 15 setup has bushings and the 16 does not. See part 6 in the 2015 callout below. I suspect this is driving the part...

Are you sure ‘16 is the same part for the RTX? When I look up parts fiche, here’s what I’m seeing: ‘14-‘15 RTX- 8JP-G7331-00-00 ‘16 RTX - 8JP-G7331-10-00 ‘17-‘18 RTX and LTX - 8JP-G7331-20-00 The one for the ‘16 seems to be the cheapest. I guess I’m just looking for what is different between...

I just returned from a trip to the UP and went to greasing the rear suspension. In doing so, I noticed grease pushing out this crack. Is this a common failure? I did search and I’m not really seeing much. Next question, would you replace the arm, or try to have it welded? I did some part...

I am planning to make another trip over New Years and into the first weekend of Jan with my wife. From what I’m seeing of the forecast starting X-mas day, I’m not getting my hopes up. Good luck both with weather and traffic for your trip the weekend between X-mas and New Years.

I’ll be solo trail riding and basing at the Holiday Inn Express in Munising this Thursday-Sat - assuming the trails held up well enough. I’ll be solo on this one so if anyone is in the area or wants an extra wheel, hit me up! I don’t prefer to ride alone mostly for safety reasons, but I had...

Very good idea and this is the first I’ve seen of anyone converting the QS3R’s to iQS. It truly is the best of both worlds!

For these USB chargers, if you wire them to the accessory power connector down by the chain case, they will only have power when the key and kill switches are on. This will avoid the problem of draining the battery with the parasitic draw of the DC conversion transformer that converts 12V to 5V...

See bottom of page 3 for proof they are AGM: https://www.yuasabatteries.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2024-Yuasa-Battery-Application-Guide-Digital-PDF.x40980.pdf According to this article, the AGM has less internal resistance so yes, it's possible that using a charger not meant for AGM could...

The Yuasa batteries that are in these sleds stock are also AGM batteries. I've had very good luck with them. In fact, I'm still on my original Yuasa in a '15 Viper. I do take the battery out of the sled and leave it on a battery tender all summer long though.

Do you happen to know the part number of the push pins you are using and the hole size you drilled?

I had the same thought, then re-read the OP's post. He stated oil leaked out and he continued to limp it back. I'm assuming that means it got hot from running without lube and hence why it looks so dry (overheated oil baked on gears).

If you're already looking at adding $2k to a sled you like and concerned about still not having EPS, you could add another $1500 and have that too. It'd still be WAY cheaper than a new one and it'd feel like a brand new machine next season.

Fronts and center are interchangeable. The rear track shock is a different length between 129 and 137.

On the 137”, there was a change to the rear shock that eliminated a travel issue that was causing the shock body to crack. I think this change happened around 2019 or 2020 and is easily visible by looking at the angle of the bottom of the reservoir relative to the shock shaft. If it’s 90...

I'd recommend putting an actual gage on it (temporarily). Oil pressure will decrease as the oil temp rises so it is possible that you have a real oil pressure issue (clearances too high, or pump flow too low) that is borderline with cold oil (higher pressure), but falls below the threshold when...

Due to your comment about hearing grinding when trying to shift into reverse, it makes me think the large plastic gear in your reverse actuator (the black part on the outside of the chain case) is stripping teeth. That will cause you to hear a grinding sound when it attempts to shift. Others...

I did the upgrade during the off season. However, I ended up using the 17+ shaft assembly that comes pre-assembled with bearing and brace behind the secondary clutch. I used the standard 6206 bearing and two 2 3/8” internal snap rings to take up the additional 4 mm. I haven’t put any miles on...

Many incorrectly believe that the shock is what provides the force to extend the suspension. Depending on the type of shock, this can be either a very small truth or no truth at all. The primary purpose of any shock is to restrict motion. Non gas charged shock - these are not charged with...

This looks pretty sweet! Will be great to know if it has group ride tracking built in and if that works sled to sled or if it relies on the phone connection for internet. Also wish they'd make it compatible with Procross, but it looks like it's likely to be only for Catalyst.

Agree with the ECU update comment. Additionally, at that mileage, most are finding the exhaust valves clearance to be well under the spec. I just did mine at 6800 miles and every exhaust valve was at least .003 less than the spec. I have read of many that are very difficult to start and even...
