What are you guys getting for mileage on your apex's.Last year I was getting no less than 17mpg cdn and this year can't get better than 13.5mpg.My sled is completely stock.So much for good gas mileage from yammie.My poo 900 mod gets almost the same.

Depends on the riding I do. Most of the time, I get 15-16 mpg. Best I've ever done is 17.5. I think the worst I've ever recorded is 14, which including getting stuck for awhile...twice.

I have a 2008 apex with 5000 miles on it and it keeps getting better on fuel . This year anywhere from 17 to 19.5 miles per canadian gallon.

It might be time to change out the jackshaft and drive bearing. Maybe even a few bearings down below. You would be surprised how much bad bearings slow the sled down with resistance.

I have a 07 Apex Gt with 300 miles on it that I bought this year from my dealer that was a leftover and I am only getting 13 mpg. My brother bought a 09 Apex LTX with 200 miles and he is only getting 13 miles per gallon. How do you guys get such great gas milage?

So does 13 sound right for us gallons?
i have a friend that got 21 mpg cdn with his 09 ltx,if you baby it of course,he did install a 24 top gear and i think it helps with gas mileage,slp anti wear pads will also help,loosen track enough so it doesnt ratchet will help,all those little things make a difference

Don't ever trade your sled in, cuz you got a GOOD 1, I'm getting between 14 to 16mpg CDN, my buddy's RX1 is a tad better than my APEX.
My sled only has 1450 miles onit.The bearings shouldn't be shot yet.I hear ski-doo calling my name if yammie can't fix this.Dano said:900cfi said:What are you guys getting for mileage on your apex's.Last year I was getting no less than 17mpg cdn and this year can't get better than 13.5mpg.My sled is completely stock.So much for good gas mileage from yammie.My poo 900 mod gets almost the same.

14 mpg driving hard is what i got with 06 & 07 Attak. 17 mpg driving hard...never got that!
Not driving hard Turk.My girlfriend was driving today and we averaged probably 50mph.My bud is having the same problem with his now after the first year his gas mileage is going down instead of going up like it should.Turk said:

I have an 07 Attak -stock- best I have ever gotten is 14. I usually get about 12. If we are playing in the powder it is around 10. I was a little disappointed with the mileage. It really sucks when you need gas before your buddies on the 2 strokers because of the small tanks. Still love the four stroke.

Your sled is in its 4th season. Doesn’t matter what brand of sled you have, bearings will go and sometimes will go premature with less use. The bottom drive and suspension bearings are exposed to the outer elements and I seen some dry up quickly. Good idea to do suspension bearings every second year at the very least. Its your call. I do them every year.900cfi said:My sled only has 1450 miles onit.The bearings shouldn't be shot yet.I hear ski-doo calling my name if yammie can't fix this.Dano said:900cfi said:What are you guys getting for mileage on your apex's.Last year I was getting no less than 17mpg cdn and this year can't get better than 13.5mpg.My sled is completely stock.So much for good gas mileage from yammie.My poo 900 mod gets almost the same.

I consistently get 15 mpg, seems like no matter if i ride 30 mph average or 60 mph average. I don't see how some of you are getting such bad mileage.
