OEM Yamaha isn’t too bad. This was the best option at the time, (pic)
You young whipper-snappers don’t remember the old days....back in ‘17 we had ‘nuthin, and was glad for it. The Yamaha catalog for the Sidewinder was a hand drawn picture taped in the regular catalog page for Vipers. 3 of the five items available had “Viper” crossed out and “Sidewinder” written over it. Come to think of it.....item four was a blue hat, and number 5 was a red hat. We had to look at the thick, fancy Cat book and pretend it was a Yamaha catalog. Back in the 'ol days.....we actually thought Cat delivered the skids to Yamaha and they put ‘em together! Ahh...those were the good ‘ol days before drive shafts, roll over valves and chain tensioners wasn’t even talked about in polite society.
