    Broken front/rear shock, '14 LTX

    I am not sure. I will have to do a better inspection to see what the damage is.

    Broken front/rear shock, '14 LTX

    Found this tonight when inspecting my sled. 4000 miles. Thinking of replacing with stock shock, but looking for suggestions for spring replacement . I weigh 220 without gear. Thanks

    Engine keeps shutting down

    I had this problem starting last year, and when I was riding on Friday it must have killed at least 10 times. Usually when putzing around or decelerating with my thumb on the throttle. I went to try to adjust my throttle cable and discovered the issue. The wires for the thumb warmer were against...

    An interesting issue (no reverse)

    I would bet your actuator is fried. Happened to mine. Worked fine when i put it away last spring. This winter it wouldn't work just like yours. 670 miles on sled at the time. Luckily it was covered under warranty.

    Throttle Cable Adjustment - MUST DO!

    Thanks, I will check mine next time. Too bad we all have to deal with this. Seems lik it should be an instruction to the dealer when they do the reflash.

    Throttle Cable Adjustment - MUST DO!

    Im guessing that's my issue. If i keep my thumb of the throttle when cruising to a stop it doesn't stall. This past weekend i did have it stall a couple of times when just "puttsing around". Any advice or instructions on doing the actual adjustment?

    DIY - Frozen fuel pump relay temporary fix to get going

    I thought Yamaha fixed this issue with a solid state relay on the Nytros. I replaced the crappy one on my Nytro with the solid state one after many starting issues. Did they go backwards on the Viper? So far i have not had any cold start issues.

    2015 RTX-SE stalling

    I've been having the same issue ever since the reflash. But now I'm thinking it might be the TORS switch. I tried coming to a stop with my thumb completely of the throttle and it seemed to be better. It seemed like if i kept my thumb on the throttle and just wiggled it a little bit it would...

    2015 Viper Shutting Off

    Mine started doing this after the reflash. I think it is related to that.

    Weird Reflash Issues

    I can say that I am not very impressed with the results of the reflash. It idles rough, seems to have severe engine breaking, and will stall if i let off the gas sometimes, even when coming into a sharp corner or pulling up to a stop sign. very annoying. Seems to be worse after it warms up...

    Reverse not working

    The funny thing is that it was working the last time I rode it. So i wonder if it gets corroded sitting over the summer?

    Oil Leak

    Have you checked your oil tank for cracks at the bottom where it attaches to the frame? They are known to crack and leak. I replaced 3 tanks on my old '06 Nytro and one on my wives '06 Vector.

    Reverse not working

    I just heard from the dealer today. They said the reverse actuator motor is locked up. Replacing under warranty. 630 miles on it. I hope the replacement lasts a little longer than that.

    Reverse not working

    Like I said, it worked fine all last year. Just noticed it this fall. Had the reverse bulletin done when i bought the sled in March. Only 670 miles on sled. It's going in for the fuel line recall, so I'll have dealer check it then

    Reverse not working

    Has anyone had issues with the reverse not working. I press the reverse button and nothing happens (not even any clicking noise or anything indicating that it is being actuated) I looked for a fuse buy couldn't find one for reverse. There was one that said shifting, but it was not blown. Checked...

    Powder riding power loss

    I experienced the same issue last weekend riding in fresh deep wet snow. I was thinking the same thing about the exhaust being plugged by the wet snow. Made me wish I had my Nytro rear exhaust back. Never experienced this loss of power with my Nytro.

    '09 XTX Electical/Starting Issue

    Well, I took care of the problem this weekend. I traded it in for 2014 Viper LTX at the dealer that tried to diagnose the issue.

    '09 XTX Electical/Starting Issue

    So here is a follow up to my previous posts. As I said in one of my past posts, the wiring harness checked out fine so I replaced the fuel pump relay with the solid state one, the crankshaft position sensor, and a new starter solenoid. The sled worked great all winter (1200 miles) until this...
