Sorry to hijack your thread guys but since you are all posting up th good deals you are seeing thought I would get in on it as well. The looks of these Yamaha’s is really starting to grow on me.

I've mentioned to my wife about getting an Apex.. and have called a fellow that
has driven my Quadtrac and might be interested in it. (message) ahh.
No call back yet.
The wheels are in motion BUT the weather for next 5 days says "don't be stupid"
Just a quick trip down the 401 , in a snow squall anytime, area ..
A sled mag writer (thanks Hal) gave me the jacket after seeing the introduction of new sleds
in 2022 . 45 th badge on arm . Newest pic on back is a 2013 apex like the
one I'm sitting on. Got my 40th ball cap on and found a salesman more than
willing to take my picture. He maybe thought I might take less than 14 years
to buy one .. lol.
If I get one , is my GMC with 6.5' box and pro tailgate long enough
or just pay the fuel and take my enclosed 7x18.. Pro tailgate nice but fragile.

Take the enclosed! The last thing you'd want is any salt spray on that clean machine.I've mentioned to my wife about getting an Apex.. and have called a fellow that

Have been in contact, purchased for his wife who has some shoulder issues ...
Suggested letting out front strap and put a steel runner on one side as power
steering helped and others brands were worse.. Will see if weather improves

So Stubbs , I will have to contact you sometime after i change ownership
and arrange insurance as "my" 2013 apex came with a permit on it.
Yes , sold quadtrac thurs afternoon and picked up apex thurs evening in
Toronto ( caught in 1 hr bumper chase going 15 miles across 401)
Terrible time getting it loaded from bare concrete as it is really studded.
I need to read manual to see if belt adj might make it launch at lower RPM.
Put plastic on barn floor for runners and currently have an old track in the
middle which I have sent shooting up the floor a couple times.
Certainly goes where you aim it. and only nailed it once in fluffy and the
fence came quicker than normal VK speed.
Will try some more when it gets bit warmer and not in a snow squall
Thanks for advise guys

Waiting for some warmer days to investigate clutch engagement. Have seen some
posts here about speeds , belt dust and different springs (pink/blue / pink).
The seller commented that is has come to the right home with all of those "elders"
parked with it. My wife had me take a pic of the quadtrac leaving the property
as it was time for some else to look after it and I needed the room.
I had a desire for quadtrac since the 70's , got it 2011.
I had a desire for a VK540 and got the model about 5 years before sled.
I had desire for 40 Anniversary Apex and bought the toy and the jacket in 2008.
Glad to have 2013 in 2026.
I don't expect to live long enough to get the real John Deere 9400T to go
with the model sitting above my computer ..LOL

Congrats on the Apex! Best color combo in my opinion. Barn of Parts Soft Start spring will get your engagement down and it doesn't affect the rest of the RPM range. I added it to my 2013, 2 years ago and it makes loading and reversing much more tame.

it is a learning curve on getting them moving without spinning the track on stock clutching. got stuck 3 times on my 1st ride on my 11 on the lake as the snow was not stuck to the ice at all.

Yamaha 90501-582J1 spring will lower engagement to 2800-3000 works awesome, all 4 of my Apex's have this spring installed.
