I am currently riding a RS Vector with Power Steering. I am thinking about moving up to a Viper and am disappointed that the 2022 non turbo Viper doesn't include Power Steering. Not having ridden a Viper, is power steering necessary? There is an aftermarket Power Steering kit available. Does...

Just looked at the line -up and Yamaha isn't offering Power Steering on the 2022 Yamaha Viper LTX-GT. What a shame and a deal breaker.

For those of you who have ridden a RS Vector LTX and now ride a Viper LTX-GT. Are the improvements, Quality, ride, etc. worth moving up to the new machine? Thanks for your reply. Jim

Has anyone seen a Dyno sheet of a 2012 Yamaha Vector LTX ? This would be a valuable tool to help set up clutching. Thanks in advance. Jim

What is the dry weight of the 2012 Yamaha Vector LTX? Thanks for your reply. Jim

I have read numerous post about the Apex not getting top end, mine included. I was also concerned because the belt did not ride to the bottom of the secondary and to the top of the primary as evidence of the belt marks. I had my secondary apart to clean and get ready for next season when I...

Is anyone using a block heater on their Apex and if so Part No. etc.? Thanks, Jim

I was looking through the FX Nitro General Site and I noticed a discussion on the Star Suspension upgrade for the rear suspension. They also have a link on that discussion site which is interesting. Is anyone on this site familiar with Star Suspension upgrades on a Apex XTX? Your thoughts...

I had worn my hy-fax down in about 500 miles. The sad part is that I watch where I ride and try to ride in good snow conditions. I added 6 Excell wheels in the location as shown in the pictures.( Wheels with the X on the outside). I then added 2 Yamaha wheels just rearward of the front curve...

Apex XTX verses RS Vector LTX. Does anyone know the weight of these two snowmobiles? American Snowmobiler magazine had listed the wet weight of the Apex XTX as 717 pounds. Thanks, Jim

We had a huge snow storm here in Northern Ohio and I had a great opportunity to ride my new Candle apple red Apex XTX. Mostly heavy snow covered roads and a railroad bed. I had a Attak GT and my friend who bought it rode with me so we had a chance to switch sleds. Switching sleds back and forth...

I just sold my 07 Attak GT and ordered a 2011 Apex XTX. Can somone tell me the Stock gear ratio and the clutch weights that they are using. I am thinking that they might be using the new 83 gram weights. thanks for you help. Jim

My friend rebuilds shocks as a hobby. He does all of my shocks as we like trying different valving etc. Like ReX we find that Yamaha valving has a lot to be desired. We do have a problem with purchasing shock parts from a Yamaha dealer. He is telling us that Yamaha won't sell shock parts to a...

Hi installed a set of Harley mirrors used in the Harley fairings. I made aluminum brackets and attached them to the extra tall windshield. They work great with no negative effects. They are very easy to see out of with no body movement.

I have an 07 Attak GT that had stock skis and 6 inch carbides last year. It steered hard and darted a lot depending upon snow conditions. The limiter strap is in the stock position and the transfer rod set in the middle. I am also not studded. I installed Yamaha mountain skis with Woodys 4...
