    2006 Apex mcx 290, stuttering

    ok, thanks. Have to check it then. Found a thread on a norwegian forum, a guy with similar behaviour, and the fuel pump gone bad. But his was constantly not going over 0,4-0,5barg. Mine only did it a few times in the same trip, and were good next trip.

    2006 Apex mcx 290, stuttering

    No, i don´t have a single afr gauge, but i´ve got the mcx display. Maybe it is on there.

    06 Apex mtn mcx build.

    Finally got the apex finished before last weekend. It felt good to get on the boost again. Since last time I installed one of the new nithrone seat covers. I think it may be too bold, so looking for a new seat to put the other cover on (if anybody in norway, sweden or finland have a spare seat...

    2006 Apex mcx 290, stuttering

    I got to drive my Apex a bit last weekend. It worked well most of the time, but once it stuttered. Ususally it charges 0.9-1 barg. But once it stuttered/offloaded when it came to 0,4-0,5 barg. I drove it home slowly, pulled all panels and checked for loose hoses etc. I could not find anything...

    will arctic cat suspension fit apex

    Long time since I were here. In the photo there is pioneer wide front end (45"?) with fox floats from an arctic cat. Nowadays I run stock apex width (42") with ohlins ttx shocks. When I put the skid in, I had to reinforce the tunnel in the front (you see the metal plates, and then riveted...

    Apex 2011-2016, Which one to get.

    yes, both xtx`s, about the same mileage. the 14 har ohlins shocks as standard here, so there`s that. The 12 has wrp seat and 2" track lugs. I`m planning on getting oilite front end bushings and dupont sliders, regardless of which one I get. The 12 also has some rust on the front end, so I have...

    Apex 2011-2016, Which one to get.

    It`s been a while. Still looking, and still want a 14 or 15 model. But at almost half the price i may go with a 11 or 12 model. Right now I`ll save 3600$ by getting a 12 model over a 14 model.

    I commissioned new seat covers for my Apex from Nithrone. They are the first Yamaha snowmobile covers they have done, and I can’t wait to get them home, and choose one to install. I think I will go with the yellow one. They are just finished, got some pics today. What do you think?

    Apex 2011-2016, Which one to get.

    Thanks for all replies. I`m keeping an eye out for what`s for sale. Right now there is a nice 15 model for sale right now at about 12k$ with some options. it`s a tad expensive, when you can get nice/ok 11`s for about 5500$ (from time to time). Then there are a few really low mile 16`s for...

    Apex 2011-2016, Which one to get.

    Thanks. I don`t think I`d want a 16, because I have a set of nos ttx`s laying around, and they won`t fit.. Like most people I`d want a 14 or 15 with ohlins, but they are really sought after, so they aren`t cheap. I can get an 11 with decent miles for almost half price..

    Apex 2011-2016, Which one to get.

    Thanks for the reply. Is it single shock skid in the 16?

    Apex 2011-2016, Which one to get.

    Hello all. I would like to get another apex, specifically the newer model with servo. Here in norway we only got them from 2011 to 2016, and only xtx models. Are there any differences between the years that are worth noting (except colours, and the fact that the 2014 and 2015 had the ohlins ttx...

    06 Apex mtn mcx build.

    Not much updates lately, and not much driving. Been struggling with smoke from the exhaust (oil leaking through turbo seals). Checked all hoses for kinks and interruptions. Found one by the engine (see pic below) that was kinda kinked, and fixed it by relocating it above the intercooler...

    Changing Skid & Track

    Pitch should be 3". I put a 15" track on mine, with an arctic cat skid. The drivers are easy, if you`ve got access to a shop press.. You have to remove the drive shaft to remove/change the track, so most of the work is done.

    06 Apex mtn mcx build.

    Ha-ha, yes. It`s the only cover I have that fits unfortunately. The riser is so high, and the air inlet at the back makes the oem apex cover not fit at all, but this one almost does.. Well due to insane amounts of snow lately, danger of avalanches (they go everywhere now) and incredibly flat...

    Best skid to put under Apex

    Now those are proper drop brackets..!! How is it to ride? Looks like it could be a bit front heavy, now that it is so tall in the back.
