    Yamaha Nytro ski bushings

    I have UPBUSHMAN ski bushings on my nytro and I've managed to wear them enough so there's slop. I noticed his user activity has been silent for a while. Does anyone know if he's still active or someone else makes a better kit than going back to the stock thin bushings and shaft?

    Shimming valves, does EPS come off?

    Should I support the belly of the sled when I loosen that subframe? It looks like that subframe is in compression as the forces from the skis and tunnel push up. Or am I overthinking that?

    Shimming valves, does EPS come off?

    I'm checking the valves and potentially shimming then on my dad's '16 vector. I'm at the point where the only thing between me and the valve cover is the EPS motor and steering subframe. Just unbolting the EPS motor doesn't look like it would give me enough room as there is a crossbar of the...

    2016 RS Vector snowmobile stalling problems

    I have this same issue with my dad's '16 vector and I've procrastinated enough to need to do it myself. Aside from the Barn of Parts tensioner lock tool, do anyone know if I need other special tools? Is there any recommendations for a shim kit I should order? By the time I get into the...

    New bearing loose

    It's not a sealed bearing. The side to the bulkhead has a separate oil seal pressed in the housing and the side towards the chain case is open to get the chaincase oil on it.

    New bearing loose

    In the middle of doing all the bearings for the first time at 12k miles and the last one is the jackshaft bearing pressed in the frame/bulkhead. I knocked out the old bearing and it feels as tight as can be, but the new one rattles slightly when you shake it. Think I got a bad one?

    '16 Vector XTX idle problem

    My dad's '16 Vector XTX does not want to start or idle when it cold. It acts like an old carb engine where you have to play with the throttle and keep rpms up for a while. If it does stall it does not want to start, catching and stalling repeatedly. When it does fire up again the rpms...

    Primary clutch sheave wear

    Nytro has just under 11k on it. I'm assuming that wear on the primary shaft is normal, but when should I replace the bushings/spider rubbers? I'm on my second clutch kit so springs and rollers/weights are fresh(ish). I've also replaced the buttons/spring on the secondary recently.

    Embarrassingly dumb question

    My father has a '16 Apex XTX with the upgraded fox shock. I sent it out to Hygear for a rebuild since he's sitting at 7600 miles. I've read the easier way to get it back in is to let the air out of the main chamber. Now for the embarrassing question, where is that? Looking on Fox's diagram I...

    Bearing replacement park number check

    My '09 Nyro XTX has 12,000 on it and since its my wifes and I don't ride it, I figure its time to replace all the bearings. I have the parts ( I tried to get all new circlips and oil seals so if/when I mangle one getting it out) underlined in red below in my "cart". I'd rather not get part way...

    Possible belt damage

    Does this torn rib mean this belt on its way out? There are a couple other spots that fabric is worn on the peak of the inside ribs, but no other missing rubber. I measured the width at the valley of the outer ribs several places around and got 33.4mm-33.7mm so within the 32.5mm spec...

    help-- rear suspension front shock linkage

    Did anyone ever figure this out? I have a '09 Nytro xtx that I've had the skid apart almost every year (so who knows if I put it together correctly) and I have it set up like option "B". I just picked up a '14 Nytro xtx and its in configuration "A", but unknown if the previous owner had it...

    Vector gauge swap question

    The gauge is off a 2012 Vector with EFI and EPS so it is the correct one. I figured out what the 8th wire was for the EPS error signal. It tells the gauge to illuminate the EPS symbol. Here are some semi finished pictures of my gauge swap. I added the aluminum bracing because the weight of...
