last sled I had was a 800 triple triple that was an arm ripping monster pretty excited to see how this compares speed wise

triple digits was never a problem

Actually getting an 06 Apex and 09 Vector this weekend after being out of snowmobiling for about 20 years. Grew up riding Polaris, XC 800 was my last sled. Anything I should know about the Apex and Vectors never ridden or owned a 4 stroke.

just search the forums they are a lot and I mean ALOT of help. this sight is full of information. i cant say anything about the vector I've never rode one, but I can say coming from an old 2 stroke myself to the apex it is a world of difference. its a much smoother ride, it gets way better mpgs. and it hauls #*$&@ no matter where your at in the throttle when you put the flipper to the grip you better hang on lol

Thanks, can't wait to try them this weekend

I love my 06…had it for 5 years now. Great sled. My only tip is don’t get it stuck, its hard to get out on your own(heavy) Hold the throttle in the ditches or deep stuff and she won’t let you down.

This is my 05 rs vector I purchased last end of the year riding season. it was stock when I got it , I actually bought2 identical vectors with 1200 miles on each one. They were husband wife matching sleds. I did graphics on this one with a red fairings of a rx-1 along with other minor mods. Drove it for the first time this year. I was impressed from driving a 02 sx viper triple to my first 4 stroke. Now I making big gains on the handling ,almost there. Thanks for looking and all the help from TY's wealth of knowledge. god bless

Was that custom painted also? I don't believe any Vector came with hood-matching colored lower panels. Graphics look fantastic! At first I thought you had posted a pic of a Firecat!

Hi and thanks. I purchased a set of lower fairings on ebay for a RX-1, cleaned the hell out of them and bolted right on, very minor mods on the plastics. Paint is stock, it came red with silver stripes and black bottom

I found a pair of silver Yamaha covers for the lower fairings
