the vector/venture sleds went eps in 2013. makes a big difference when using agressive skis.

that is same motor as your nitro but tuned less agressively. that is a pre eps sled. brother had same sled with eps. set up they handle the trail well but are not agressively clutched as it is a comfort touring sled. not a top speed sled at all but will hit 90mph 2 up in right conditions...

well on the 11, i had it come loose and the retaining snap ring stopped it from wearing all the way through the cover.

maybe you could mod a set of apex xtx ones to go in there?

do a compression test. sounding like it might have a bent/stuck valve.

nice! now get it set for your weight and ride.

i usually only remove the long end as it is almost impossible to get enough leverage for short end. make sure the spring tension adjuster is on the lowest setting. i then either muscle the long end into the holder by hand or if i am feeling lazy, i use a prying device/bar. i then use a...

it might be availible separate in an automotive or motorcycle application as they usually fit multiple vehicles. i did find this site with a quick search...

that one looks really nice. still has the single keel skis on it too.

it is in the exh pipe under the seat and fuel tank. i check my cables and cable adjustment every year. it cann ot be taken apart to be cleaned that i am aware of.

muckle

so the helix moves freely in an out on secondary with the spring removed? same with primary? does the same with new belt?

the 11 that is black is most likely a 12 model year. i almost bout a 12 xtx when i bought my 11 but $ talks and the 11 was cheaper by a good amount at the time. other than colours, 11-18 are all the same sled. there is a 13 on swap and buy near me getting parted out and i was thinking on...

12mm or 13mm was the upgrade from stock. with the larger one, it doesn't want to body roll as much.

as robx-1 and stubbs said, the ski rubber needs to stay with the spindle it came from. if the 2010 still has stock sway bar, that would probably be the difference. the 2013 and 2016 both use the same sway bar and i know when they added the eps, they upped the sway bar to 11.75mm vs the 10mm...

exup and eps are the main ones.

i loved the tuners on a hard packed trail when i helped brake in agman's 18 apex xtx back in 18. when i got my 16 xtx in 2019, one pass across a meadow with no crust, i could not steer anything sharp or sudden. threw on my favorite single keel ski for my area and had no trouble since...

my 11 is sitting with around 39000 km on it atm in my yard. my 16 is in garage atm (headlamp bulb failure) with 13000 km on it. i would not be sacred of them. at those milages, the a arm bushings will have been done and the exh dontuts at least once. around the 33000 km point, i had to re...

looks pretty good. i usually crack mine within an inch of the hole. that groove is normal on all my clutches.

yup, those are 2nd gen plastic yamaha skis. just from your picture, it needs the shim as the ski tips are lower than the spindle bolt. i tend to use a chunk of mud flap (where it secures to the truck) under the rear of the ski rubber on mine. when the tips are up, it tracks better in the...
