950 kms on mine, 6" deuce bars, 114 studs.I have just adjusted suspension springs and rear clicker.Very impressed so far, seems to be better on fuel than my 2011 128 apex er, seems to roll easier. The long track and xtx suspension much better on rough trails, does not bottom out as easy as the monoshock.No issues with slider wear yet.

The new skis DO NOT eliminate darting. You need to install either bergstrom triple points or snow trackers. I use both depending if bergstrom answers his phone. I thought the 2012 XTX was a little stiff compared to my 2011 XTX. I rode both today and they are both set to "M" in the rear.

- 2016 RS Vector XTX 1.25 Lug wifes..2013 RS Vector LTX.. 2003 600 VMax Past Machines 3-2007 Attaks 1-2010 Vector LTX.. sorry no Stinkdoos or poo's cats.
Enjoy..I'm jealous. Yami makes a nice machine. I've had such good luck all my Yamis. My friends with their cat's,etc. have had issues I've seen and I've had none in 8 years. Maybe 2 bent wheels in 8k on my Attak,9k on our Vmax's. Wifes Vector has only 2500 so too early to tell but I doubt any problems with it's heritage of engineering leading up to it.

yes i have seen a little darting and she dont dig in as well in the front as my gt did with doolies i have a new set of 6 inch double downs i may just put them on not enuff snow to open trails here at home so may be a bit till i get to try her again man i love that power steering. cant beleve the diffrence in power from the 07 and the instant response of the throtle. and the way that xtx handles like a short track on the trail but hit that throtle and away you go hooks up like a dream.

Open photo with microsoft office picture manager,once open go to edit pics, click on compress picture settings, now chose Web pages and click OK, smaller version of picture will appear, click File save as, create new name for photo and save, now close picture manager, it will ask if you want to save changes to original picture, click NO.
You will now have two pictures in the file, the original for photo printing and one reduced in size with the new name you have given it. It is now small enough for emails and posting to the web.
