Change the oil and filter after the last ride of the year. Start it up and run it to coat engine internals and then don't start it again untill you are ready to use it next season. The byproduct of combustion is water and you don't need any of that in your engine. Normal use will produce the...

In all fairness if you look further down on the offer thing it also offers 500 yamabucks and no interest for 11 months. This is for Canadian Yamaha persons.

I guess what I am really saying is I will be driving the 02 for a while longer than I expected. I will wait until next year or the year after and get one used that is in good condition. Can't aford to lose 6000.00 every 3 years on a new sled and we have 2 sleds that would have to be traded...

Why am I so surprised? Well like the exchange rate has improved by over 25% since last year. So we are getting taken to the cleaners. Thats why. RS Vector ER 7199.00 US should be around 1.32 exchange = 9500.00 Can. If that is not a surprise to you then I hope you enjoy the 2500.00 Yamaha...

Again I say you didn't read the full article or you would know that he doesn't say the hard way but a specific way. Your friend may have broken it in hard but did he follow the Motoman way or his own way. Maybe if you read the full article you will see it doesn't condone driving it like it was...

To prevent oil burning and get more power from your engines go to www.mototuneusa.com. Follow the procedure for break in to the letter. If you have already been driving your sled sorry this will not help. Putting new rings in and starting over will. You can't put enough emphasis on doing the...

Hi All, I have it on good authority that Yamaha will be supplying a synthetic oil for the year 2005. Seems they didn't think we would be driving our sleds when it is 35 below. The olny part of the engine that requires break in is the rings. Go to www.mototuneusa.com and find out the proper...
