    SteveO Gone

    I wouldn’t blame anyone for going to a different sled. I bought a brand new SS440 in 1982 and have owned nothing but Yamaha since. After many great sleds over the years, this is the first time I have second guessed my brand loyalty. Sometimes I think I should have stuck with an Apex. They are...

    TD MAX SPOOL 16

    There is also Powertrail for stock muffler at 250hp. It will run 87 octane in a pinch.

    Turbo Dynamics clutch kit

    Those are the exact weights that are working for me. I have Powertrail tune with SQ exhaust and CAI, so right around 270 hp according to TD. Black/bronze primary spring, black/orange secondary spring wrapped to 6-2 and stock helix. With the 8JP I needed 7.4 grams in QAY70’s to get the RPM...

    Dalton clutch kit for a Turbo Dynamics flash - need help

    By Dalton 70G do you mean QAY70? If so, here is a copy of the instructions that I have and they can also be downloaded from the Dalton website. I’m surprised this page wasn’t included in your kit. About half way down the page in bold and underlined text it says to never put the 1” weight in...

    Heat shields on TD super quiet muffler

    I’m running a TD SQ exhaust with the stock heat shield. I just wrapped it tight around the exhaust a pop riveted it using the holes on the outer part and just drilled the inner half so the rivets are in the right locations. I also shoved some of the insulation in a few spots to keep it from...

    2020 sidewinder

    My sled was over heating a lot when it was new. I made sure my coolant was good for -40 and I took some coolant out and added Red Line Water Wetter. It has been running cooler since I did that.

    Spark plugs?

    There was a thread from about 4-6 weeks ago on spark plugs. It’s probably back a few pages now. I’m not sure if this link will work. https://ty4stroke.com/threads/spark-plugs.158511/

    Quick hook up for heated visor on 2017 SW

    I doubt polarity would matter for the visor itself. My concern would be the connections. If the center is positive it would be protected and be less likely to short out. Here is a picture of my factory plug. If the outer ring was positive it could be easier to short out. I would make sure the...

    Quick hook up for heated visor on 2017 SW

    The female side on the sled end would be positive. In the picture of the cord that you posted, the male prong would be the positive side.

    Barn of Parts Driveshaft Saver....Bearing Lock

    Travis posted a great installation video back on post #224. That worked perfectly for me. Grease the 3 sides of the wedge where they meet the fingers, the bolt threads and under the bolt head (don’t use too much if your worried about it getting on the brake rotor). By doing this, there will not...

    Barn of Parts Driveshaft Saver....Bearing Lock

    I torqued mine to 35 ft lbs like most of the guys on here. It started to grip the bearing at 30 ft lbs but I took it to 35 and the bearing was tight on the drive shaft. The brake rotor still had a little play so I left it there. I also left it out just enough to get a thin wrench on if needed...

    Barn of Parts Driveshaft Saver....Bearing Lock

    Yes, Travis developed a fix that plagues all of our sleds. This is a huge deal and he deserves a big thank you. Mine was showing signs of wear but it wasn’t too late and the Driveshaft Saver fixed it. Also, I have no plans to buy a Doo - like ever. If I did, I would be on Doo Talk bragging...

    Track Alignment Issue

    To quote the great Ralph Wiggum, #7 is unpossible. Also, I would add StuddedTracks to the list. Happy New Year everyone!

    Sorry for the bad resolution, I will try again as a thumbnail. Unless someone has a better copy??

    Best bang for buck

    Here is a chart that Ben posted a while back and I think it’s still accurate. I run Powertrail with TD CAI and SQ exhaust. It’s a very solid tune that’s been around for a few years. It will run 87 octane in a pinch but I have never needed to. Great power, never seen a knock light, improved fuel...

    TD Max spool 16 sm

    How does Powertrail compare to Max Spool 16. I am running Powertrail with SQ exhaust and CAI. I normally see over 16 psi boost - usually 16.5 psi. It works great for me - lots of pull. I am just wondering in case I want to go back to stock exhaust. I guess I would have to go to a 3 bar map...

    Tuner III Ski Setup

    I used Snowtrackers on my RX1 and then two different Apexes over a 12 year period. They worked perfect for me. When I got the Sidewinder, I wasn’t crazy about the Tuners and thought about Snowtrackers. I couldn’t find much info at the time so I went with 6.9 Pilots and 7.5” Shaper bars. This set...

    Dx Saddlebags

    You can look them up 0nline on a OEM parts fiche. Try looking up a 2018 S-TX DX and they are in the Bumper section. It looks like they are part #8JP-F8448-00-00 (RH) and #8JP-F8449-00-00 (LH). The problem will be the DX has a different seat as well. There is a large flap on the back part of the...

    2020 Turbos will come with more HP??

    Decisions like this are not made by people like us blasting down the trails. They are made by people in suits sitting in board rooms surrounded by graphs and pie charts. The best way to ensure we have hyper sleds in the future is for them to build “bread and butter” type sleds. Dodge could not...

    Sidewinder travel cover

    Everyone knows that Yamaha makes a Sidewinder cover that fits perfectly on a - ummm - a Sidewinder??
