    Bv2S Fogging Up in Really Cold Conditions: Help

    Make sure mask stays tight to your face. No air can get in, if it is sealed around your face. If you breath out real hard,fast, you can force air out around edge of mask. Once you fog it, your toast. I also don't use the paper or any cloth in mask. Ride mostly in northern Canada and no...

    Do Phazers start up as quick as the Apex?

    Atleast twice the cranking time for the Phazer. I worry about starter and usually crank for about 7 to 10 seconds per try, when cold always starts 2nd time.

    Need feedback about billet idler wheels!!!!??

    I had rubber coating on my billets for my Mach Z, 1000 miles no issues. Got from Whahl. Try a mountain forum as they use more oversized rear wheels. I would not worry. Look cool!!!

    Apex Rtx info??

    I had both. Riding position is about the same. Standard Rev is more rider forward than both Z and RTX. 06 RTX with mono shock is hands down winner in handling department on 05 Z. 05Z had shocks that should of been on a 380 Fan. (junk) RTX has more inside ski lift, but other than that RTX...

    Windshield Bag

    That be it! Made that trip at -42 one day. Warming hut was castle to me that day. Still holds a warm spot in my heart. That is the best run in snowmobiling. Hills coming into Hornepayne are a blast. Except the one coming south that turns right after the crest.

    1st Ride FX

    Lot's of snow build up. Did not overheat. Exhaust gets very hot. Smelt like buring plastic in garage. Don't think I would cover tunnel. Fun sled! :jump:

    1st Ride FX

    Took my kids FX out for a ride tonight in Houghton lake. Broke trail for 35 miles. What a blast. Yamaha hit a home run with this sled. Might get boring on groomed trails, but a blast to ride in tight trails. Light weight and fun. My face is kind of sore from laughing in my helmet...

    Better invest in Goretex

    Only 50 yards per direction? No enough to distance to generate heat or max rpm's. Just spun track. Wet leaves under wet snow= no traction. But if I had more distance, probally would have kept the hand on the loud handle! Blets are cheap :jump:

    Better invest in Goretex

    Took a short ride in my jeans in wet sloppy snow on the FX Sat. Legs got wet from the knees down. Might of been from putting my legs at the back of the boards trying a wheelie. Spring riding or slushey lakes will be wet. Other than that enjoyed the kids sled.

    SLP Powder Pro Skis on Apex/Attak?

    I like mine. A little bit harder to steer, they also stopped my darting problem. Goes where you point it, my yamaha skis did not have a secure feeling. I used the same powder pro's on my Mach Z, switch mounting plates for $40.00 and moved to my RTX.
