    Fuel Light Issues and Darting/Heavy Steering

    You mention the ski toe alignment is zero, so you really should have a slight toe out, try 1/8in and at most 1/4 in, this does help with darting as well.

    Thoughts on BDX PROLITE "VISION" BUMPER WITH L.E.D. HEADLIGHTS

    My personal opinion is it doesn't look much tougher than the stock bumper and those lights look like ones you can just buy seperatly and they made mounts for them on their bumper. I personally have used the Racewerx proclimb mountain bumper on a 2016 Bearcat, same chassis and mounting and I bet...

    Wider Ski for my Viper!

    I like my Arctic Cat M8 mountain skiis. Was a bit of custom work to get the proper shape for the rubber pad so ski had proper angle of attack but they work great.

    WRP Seat, Now Seat Concepts vs 2012 OEM

    I just bought and put a WRP seat on my 06 Rage this past summer, glad I did get one before they sold the seat biz off. I went to the new companys site and very limited on snowmobile seats. Anyway I love my sled with the new WRP seat and raised handlebars. I raised mine 5 inches and...

    2006 Rage rear suspension and valve clearance check/adjust

    Hi that was the ONE thing I knew and checked before buying it, it has the updated tensioner already. Is the manual downloadable for the sled? Or is there a link to just the procedure to check the valve clearance? I found this thread that talks about it and has a screen shot to one page that...

    2006 Rage rear suspension and valve clearance check/adjust

    Hi thanks, I was just looking at pictures in google and found one that lead me to a thread here on how to adjust the transfer rod. Thanks for the link, so the stock shock is rebuild able? Is it a Ohlins unit? Thank you ~ Phil

    2006 Rage rear suspension and valve clearance check/adjust

    So really enjoyed riding the sled this year after my seat, handlebar height and other changes. But the rear suspension is not the best ive ridden, it does not handle chopping bumps well, even at slow speeds, I am thinking the shock/s are gone in it. I was considering just swapping it out for...

    Impressions/Issues of 2006 Rage after mods/maint...

    Update, I shimmed the skis so they have a slight point up in the front, and it did feel better, I then checked the toe out and there is a slight bit of play in the skis and when I pull the tips in there was a bit of tow-in, so I increased the toe out so when tips pulled they do not toe in at...

    Impressions/Issues of 2006 Rage after mods/maint...

    Hi Thrasher thanks, so I wanted the wider skis to help the front stay up on top when the trail isn't groomed yet, I don't ride off trail but I do ride before they are groomed sometimes. Also never used the snowtrackers, my last sled was as heavy (AC Bearcat) and it didn't dart like this and it...

    Impressions/Issues of 2006 Rage after mods/maint...

    So I got the sled the end of last season, put about 400 miles on it and only thing done then was to try the suspension setup by I think theCatman (not sure now). Sled does not have clicker shocks so only did what I could and for the most part it was just checking and verifying they were set...

    Seat Pan heat shield question

    Hi its a 06 Rage, the straps that hold the back edge of the seat cover down go in under that heat shield. The seat cover was still good and I could not see a way to get it off without cutting them unless I took the heat shield off, I could then un stick them from the plastic seat base and save...

    Seat Pan heat shield question

    Im putting on a WRP seat and to take the old seat off (strap holds cover down) I had to take the aluminum foiled heat shield off, it is held on by large head rivets. Looking at the parts diagrams it doesn't show the bottom of the seat pan, does anyone know what the size is of these over sized...

    Issue changing Hyfax

    Hi thanks, so I manage to get the slides off and put one on the side that has no issue with the locking screw. Its a tight squeeze through the track window but does work with some light oil. As for the broken screw, its no use it broke off jagged and there is no way to get a hole started even...

    Issue changing Hyfax

    Hi thanks I saw a video on someone doing the reverse trick I never heard of that seams like it could cause damage somewhere. So they will fit, Ill try forcing it and puting some lube on it. Id rather just pull them all the way out the windows, will try again and if cannot will attempt the...

    Issue changing Hyfax

    So I'm new to Yamahas but not new to sleds, have had all three other brands and I've always changed the hyfax by sliding them out a track window but on my Rage it really seams like the window just is not wide enough to. It could be that the hyfax are really worn out and have mushroomed some...
