I love it when an evil plan finally comes together

[YamahaTim]

Pretty soon!!!!!! The turbo looks awesome and is designed really well. Cant wait. youll have to send pictures when yours is done. We live pretty close where do you usually ride? We should get out and ride!

NICE only a matter of time & snow now

 

[YamahaTim]

For sure. The up should have some good snow in the next couple of weeks. That would be a good place to break it in!

 

[Yamadog]

did you stay intil it was done and bring it back with you?

 

[YamahaTim]

That was not my sled. they are doing mine soon. just wanted to post some pictures. My Viper and turbo are there just a matter of time.

 

[Yamadog]

Must be a lot of guys doing it, he is sold out of his first batch and next batch wont be there till at least the 7th

 

[YamahaTim]

here is my old 2010 nytro

 

[YamahaTim]

When is yours suppose to be done?

 

[Yamadog]

I am dropping off Tuesday he told me he could get it in right away was hoping to pick up Wednesday

Oh by the way the Nytro is going to need some duct tape

 

[Yamadog]

You get hit by a SEMI? or did you do that the way I did my Apex RTX?

 

[YamahaTim]

I hope you get yours done soon. let me know. as im waiting for mine and we live to far away to go check everyday. And my Nytro i was in a field right behind my house and was going around 85 mph and my stupid a$$ was looking back at my wife and i was a little off line and hit a 7 foot dirt wall and i just looked forward right before i hit. so i had enough time to say oh s... and hit the throttle and the sled hit and flew end over end. i flew 52 yards in the air before i hit the ground. i ended up breaking 7 bones. my back 3 ribs two bones in one leg and one bone in the other. i was pretty much out of it for like 5 days. but i bought my 2011 Nytro XTX about a month later...

Thats close to what I did but was boing a lot faster. Just passed 500 mile break in on 2nd day on 06 RTX. Had been riding the UP for years did not know it but someone bought the last piece of ground before Hurley coming from Mercer on the grade. They revoked the trail permission and built a dirt bank across it. It was snowing and they only put 1 of those small turn arrow sings on a tree about 15' off the trail. I hit it flat out at about 105 on the apex.

I flew 79' ft came down nose first, bounced and cam down standing on the tunnel, thats where I came off. I sheared the headlight pod off with my head, bent the hadlebars down to the front side panels, sheared the front bolts on all 4 a arms destroyed the nose, air box, all body panels gone, tunnel bent like yours the seat destoyed, mono rear bent the rails and punched out the front W arm, broke the motor mounts.

Beleive it or not I broke nothing but badly bruised sternum and my right shin hit the reverse lever and was swelled 4 times it size.

My buddies were about 5 miles behind and came up on the hole in the embankment and saw the sled standing on its nose steaming. Long story short we used ratchet straps to the ski tips to bring them together and dug the broken kill switch up and it started. I would ride 10' and then they would scoot the rear to straighten me out and we rode back to the Starlite motel that way. Broken motor mounts made it a bitch to get the clutch to grab the belt and no steering made it take forever.

That's crazy! I guess we have both had some serious stuff happen. I guess that comes with the sport. I bought a 4 wheel kit for my Viper and have to drop it off at hauck. I'm not sure when I'm going to get it, but it should be tomorrow. When are you going there? Maybe we could work something out. Did they say that they already have a turbo for you or do you have to wait until the next batch? And are they doing it in one day or do you have to go back to pick it up?

 

[Yamadog]

They have it (the Turbo) He said done by Wednesday. I can meet you and get it and drop it off for you if you got time to get it close or 1/2 way here.

 

[YamahaTim]

Right on.. I have all the time in the world. I have a seasonal job and have all winter the snowmobile. So I can meet you anywhere or drive up there with ya or what ever. I live in Farmington so not to far. I'm just not sure when my wheels will come in.
