    16 Vector XTX Cold Idle Speed Hunting

    My 16 xtx vector always had a non smooth idle when cold right from the startup everytime. But when warmed up it runs like a beast. 4500 miles now on it. My wife has a 13 vector ltx and had a 2010 ltx which had a flawless cold idles. odd.

    Coolant Temp gauge kit needed

    Is there coolant temp kits with instructions for the Apex/Vector sleds? I have a 2016 Vector XTX and want to install a coolant temp gauge. The vector fourm seems to be dead. Sad but I know after owning 3 Attaks Apex has similar cooling compontants and layout. I searched threads but infor is...

    It’s finally over for Yamaha

    Not surprised. They stuck to their guns and didn't make 2 strokes. I'm glad really as I can't stand the smell from others when riding now. And I bet they pushed other's to jump to 4 stroke fast.They don't need this end of the Market and let it go.

    How many miles are to many?

    6k for Attak is nothing . I owned 3 of them. I run RS Vectors now and love them as much or more. Same machine really except for 3 cyl which still runs like heck and pulls strong.

    CL Used Apex Summary for ME, NH, VT

    Most folks who love snowmobiling and have money to spend on it already have their machines for this season. The other folks thinking about it don't want to spend that money on them now. And most sellers always want way more then the market allows. And many folks just buy new. Also the sellers...

    HyGear rear coil over shock for Apex & Vectors 2016-2018

    I love the Hygear coil over. I was one of the first to use one and it's still going strong. I think it's the best hardware and design going.

    Scratchers for 12 XTX

    I two mounted the Duraflex brand which I like more. On the side rails in an existing hole. And added SS closed eye bolts to hold them. They are amazing scatchers. Never break or bend. In and out of the trailer or what ever. Many years and miles on them. Same for the wifes sled.

    HyGear rear coil over shock for Apex & Vectors 2016-2018

    I have the Hygear coil over shock. Best one there is out there. Takes a beating and has the best upgrade design again. Worth the money. I've had it since hey first came out with it. Same kit as the 129 basically. Skid wheels are moved in that kit.

    Anyone who studded a 2010 Vector LTX..read

    A LTX has a 136 in track and yes you would need 1 1/2 in of clearance over the fin's. If you have oem protectors then an old slide would give the extra clearance.

    NEW GAUGE CLUSTER

    I do that as well. Piece of cake. I also use it when in fresh snow and the trails disappear. It keeps me on some hard pack underneath. As you know if you go off the trails/road trails/field trails snow is much deeper and softer and my "heavy beast" will sink especially with all 250lbs of me plus...

    NEW GAUGE CLUSTER

    That doesn't fly with me.. It shows me alot of things ahead. Which leads to a much more safer and stress free ride. Been using one for many many years.

    2012 RS Vector LTX stock track one or two ply?

    From what others did over the years it seems you need 1 1/4 in from the fins. A hyfax might just be enough. Back on my 3 Attaks I had to install the cooler and add alot of protection to get the 1 1/2 in I wanted. The newer oem installed cooler has protection but from the fin it isn't 1 1/4 in If...

    2012 RS Vector LTX stock track one or two ply?

    Sorry.. been a while but your right. It's a 1.325 stud. That is what Woody's recommended. We've put over 25,000 miles on 3 different 136in track Yamai LTX's with those studs and never had an issue. Used their recommened pattern as well. And in NH we have hard conditions for riding often...

    2012 RS Vector LTX stock track one or two ply?

    there should be a number for them. Mine was from yamaha oem and I had no trouble with getting info. But LTX Ripsaw were 2 ply on the 136in tracks. I didn a few of them the latest my wifes 2013 Vector LTX . Used Woody's 1.26 Gold Digger's I believe. Best one they had in 1.25. Also you will have...

    2012 RS Vector LTX stock track one or two ply?

    Woodys can be wrong. Best call Camoplast and they'll tell you by the numbers off the track. Woody's said mine was 2 ply. It's 1 ply as they checked for me. The head engineer at Camoplast checked also as I questioned the answer from his help. Also looking at the side doesn't always show it as...
