    I have an RX-1 with over 14k..still love it. I believe the Apex had the same issue with exhaust doughnuts - 4 of those dang things that are a pain to access.

    2 Up Seat options?

    I appreciate the advise. I see there is an "overload kit" for loads greater than 300 lbs designed for a 146" machine. My Sidewinder is a 137", and we together would be closer to 400 lbs. I don't want to destroy my machine either if it is too much weight. Does anyone have any first hand knowledge...

Strange this design wasn't the initial fix. I also see the top gear upgrade recommendations include the brass fork pads. Do you...

    2005 RX1 ER track clips?

    I just changed my first pair of hyfax on my 05 RX1 with 8,200 miles! A new record considering northern MI lower peninsula. Realistically they probably had 4,000 Miles since I am the second owner. In noticed several track clips missing and Yamaha does not show the clips in the parts diagram. Does...
