    Rust in top chain case gear?

    Anybody received this gear with what appears to be rust on bushing? This is the second time this has happened that this new gear has shown up looking like this. I've attached pics of a new one with and without the rust. Just wondering if anyone has tried running one of these with the rust. It...

    AFR reset caused by reverse button?

    So here's a strange one, any input is greatly appreciated. 2014 viper hurricane 190 kit. Any time I hit the reverse button my afr's reset exactly like when you first fire the machine up. This started late last season and I still haven't figured out what's going on. Also idle afr the longer it...

    Studs and the Trihub?

    Looking for some feedback from those running studs with the trihub. I'm thinking about adding studboy power point plus studs in the off season. Has anyone had any trouble with studs wrecking the trihub. Just wondering since the wheels are basically plastic without any rubber on the outer...

    Composit C38 Track 1800 Mile Review

    Thought I'd do a review for those looking to change tracks. At the end of last season I had just over 9000 miles on my stock viper xtx 141" cobra track so it was time to go track shopping. I never liked the way the lugs fold over on that track especially after putting a turbo on the sled. The...

    17' Jackshaft Upgrade

    Just finished upgrading my 14' XTX jack shaft to the 17' jack shaft and bearing. I had just over 9,000 miles on the original bearings and figured it's time to do the upgrade. Everything was original in the chain case except for the upper gear bushing. I found a jack shaft off a low mileage...

    Adding coolant lines into turbo?

    I got just over 5000 miles out of my 1st garrett bearing cartridge before having to replace. I definitely didn't let it idle before shutting down consistently enough. But I'm wondering if adding coolant thru turbo would help bearing longevity. Anyone else add coolant?

    Which Viper, 16',17', or 18'?

    Looking at picking up another new Viper probably (LTX-DX) while they're so cheap, just looking for feedback on which year is best. I've found all three of these years still available. I know the 17 has better upper bearing setup in chain case. Will not be turboing it, but wonder if I should...

    Adding heated seat?

    I'm adding a heated seat to my 2014 viper. I bought the cat switch and harness. I also have an autotune plugged into the auxilary 12 volt plug by the reverse motor so I bought a 12v cable that splits into two. With both the autotune plugged in there and the heated seat harness it pops the fuse...

    XTX busted front skid swing arm

    Any 2014 xtx's with broken front swing arm. Mine broke in two spots where it's welded yesterday and it snapped off the shock shaft right at the threads. Thought I blew the chaincase but turns out track gets so loose with front suspension collapsed drivers were barely touching track. So I just...

    Won't idle cold without throttle.

    Anybody have any ideas on this one. 2014 XTX, it started last year and has gotten progressively worse. Only when starting cold so far in temps ranging from -15F to 25F I have to give it a little throttle or it dies and I have to hold it until it fully warms up. Once it warms up it runs...
