    Poll for Fuel Shut Offs

    I also just bought them from YAMAHA direct. I will be putting them on this week. I trailer about 200 miles one way. I have always refrained from traveling with a full tank of gas. Snowmobiling is a release for me...the last thing I want to do is worry about damaging my sled and wrecking a...

    2004 RX1 ER...VS. 2005 RX1 ER

    LOL...the guy is a great friend but at times he is quite the bragger. I watched as he throttled up his sled...the skis came flying up off the ground each time he did so. I guess I have never seen that before on an RX1...so I thought maybe he might have more than just an edge. I must say his...

    2004 RX1 ER...VS. 2005 RX1 ER

    Hello all, Besides the suspension changes and weight elimination in the 2005...which I realize are some big changes...will the 2005 leave the 2004 in the dust being that both sleds are stock with NO modifications. My buddy has declared I will have a huge problem keeping up with his 2005...

    What is the horse power?

    I failed to mention wher he got his info. He came up with 176 in comparison to the motor that he has in his 1000cc motorcycle. Although he was approximating the HP's he figured it was 176...I estimated at 146 HP but I am comfortable with 138-140HP. I just thought it was kinda strange that...

    04' Sleds Moving at Dealer Cost

    Dude...you should take your attitude and learn to not be so rude you may want to also take grammar course when posting. I think everyone on this board has a right to an opinion but to tell all of us to keep working so you as a Native can get "big free tax money" is quite twisted. Just an FYI...

    04' Sleds Moving at Dealer Cost

    I purchased my 2004 RX1 for a total cost including sales tax of $8,390.00. With that price, I did NOT have the option of any free stuff or the rebate offered from Yamaha. I purchased my sled from Nelson's Speed Shop in Greenville, MI. They were cheaper than anyone in the Detroit, MI...
