heat exchanger

thanks guardrail for the info. do you have one of these on your sled and if so how do you like it
thanks

 

[guardrail]

Yeah, I put one on mine when I bought it. I had problems with my Rxwarrior heating up. I put one one on that sled and it fixed the problem. Make sure you thin out your antifreeze to about 60/40, that will cause a heating problem also.

heat exchanger

thanks for the info it sounds like this is the way to go to prevent any problems. are they difficult to install?

 

[Blue Dave]

I do not know how difficult the Attak install is, but I can tell you that the Apex cooler was only about a one hour job for me.

Having a die grinder and an air rivet gun made the job quick & easy.

Simple job to do. I don't think you get protectors with the cooler. I didn't.
I went to HomeDepot and bought some Aluminum straping and square tubeing and fabricated one. I ran it for a while without protectors and had no problem. I don't have studs and run stock. I'm a big guy and thought I'd tear up the protector. I made them anyway just to be safe and I might stud them this year.

Charger,

Make sure you compare pricing with Pioneer.

Please also add your location to your profile.

Welcome to TY!

Anyone know if Pioneers is the same as the factory one that Port sells? Any difference? Price seems to be the same.

 

[Blue Dave]

My Apex rear heat exchanger from Pioneer was a genuine Yamaha part. I see Bruce has raised the price on the heat exchangers since when I bought mine last year.

The Apex rear heat exchanger went from $81.95 to $129.95 and the Attak rear heat exchanger went from $169.95 to $199.95. Still well worth the extra peace of mind IMO.

thanks for the info. am i to understand that i will need to fabricate a shield for this, and do the kits from pioneer come with all mounting hardware?
