Don't forget the Yamaha motor is a dry sump motor. no oil pan just a windage tray. is the Cat a dry sump motor? an oil pan could fill that space if it is a wet sump. Compare crankshaft height for a better comparison.

I got my SE because it's like my YZ450. only for snow. and you can acually adjust the suspension. I love it.

No. The shape shouldn't make a difference in sound. oval or round will sound pretty much the same.

Yes you should service your silencer no matter what it's made of. thats why almost all aftermarket motorcycle exhausts are bolted together instead of being welded.(So you can repack them.) The stock muffler is like a automotive one. it's welded so it's not serviceable but built heavy...

Think motocross with the Yamaha. and cross country with the Ski-Doo.

Dealers usally use family or friend names to get extra snow check sleds in if they think the sleds will sell. Or people back out of the deal after they order the sleds. I bet the later happened alot this year with the way jobs are disapearing across the county.

Maybe they could weaken the a-arms a little more. At least it would be a cheaper fix.

Something has to give when you hit something solid. I guess it's the subframe on the Nytro. If you break the bulk head (the part that the engine mounts to.) I'm sure that will cost a hella of a lot more and probably end your ride right there. With a bent sub you may be able to limp home. I have...

Buy the SE. The best suspention period. I have tweaked my subframe. But if you check the foums of the other brands you will see they have the same problems. Don't let anyone bull #*$&@ you about reliability. I have 850 hard miles on mine and it's probably the best rough trail sled out there...

I think it was wise not to go crazy releasing new models this year. There are a lot of dealers out there that have lots of leftovers. Really? How many people can AFFORD or are willing to buy a new sled this year? When I snow checked my SE last spring I didn't know I was going to get laid from my...

Hey diggler. I also rode a 1200X Doo. Thats why I bought a Nytro SE. The Yamaha felt rock soild compared to the Doo. I could actually feel the 1200's chassis flex. As for people wanting a faster, lighter Apex. I can see where you are coming from. But with the Nytro, when was the last time you...

Though I don't really trust Polaris's reliability, I like the idea of progressive rate rear suspension. At least they are trying to make inprovements. Hopefully it works out and the rest of the industry follows.(With a better looking design.)

Love my SE. The suspension is awsome (it acually works.) compared too a Doo X. Haven't ridden a Dragon SP yet. But the ajustability is great. Good power,decent handling and great egronomics for stand up riding. No buying risers,longer cables hoses ect. (could use a taller seat though.) just buy...

I bent my sub frame on my SE when I rode over a downed tree and the carbide dug in and and whipped the bars to the left. they didn't even get tore out of my hands. I noticed the steering got hard so I started looking and low and behold the left side was pushed back. That little plate also has...

A tall size usually has longer arms and torso. xxl is just bigger around.

Some people like to hold on till the bitter end.

It could happen if someone hung onto the bars too long when going over the bars.

Try Pioneer Performance. Their tech is a former team Yamaha tech. He is probably one of the best out there. and their prices are reasonable too. They are in New York. I think you can find there phone # somewhere on this site.

Hey Grimm what do you need to look up for on our spindles? I know this is off topic but I haven't seen that one yet.

The guy complaning about breaking the aluminum mount, It's better to break the mount than your wrist isn't it. I have seen guys break thier hands using bark busters on bikes. I'd rather break something on my machine than my bones. I'm not picking on anyone. but they build them so they break...
