Guys, it is with much sadness that after a 8 years (Late Summer 2002-2010) adventure with my RX-1, I finally had to let the old girl go.

I was very torn about selling it my RX-1 but, I needed a beginners mountain sled and a TTR-125 for my 80 lb daughter and the sale of the RX-1 is what allowed me to do that.

I will miss hanging out on this forum as much as I once did and I have had a great time dealing with all of you and I'd still be happy to answer any questions I can regarding RX-1 issues.

I do have a few RX-1 items left that I need to get rid of:

I have a cut exhaust Y pipe ready for a single pipe to be welded onto it.

I have several sets of clutch weights all loaded up for a RX-1 mountain application. They are 8DN-00, 8DN-10, 8BU-10 and I also have two set of the 8FA-00 RX-1 stock weights.

I have a gold colored Dalton 54/42 helix that's in great shape.

Carbon print headlight cover

Blue traction brackets for the footwells

Apex mountain handle bars with hot grips and instructions for RX-1 application

Stock 16.5mm clutch rollers

Three sets of Holtzman carb springs - Yellow, Red and Silver.

One set of blue Handleballs - go into the end of handlebars to keep your hands from slipping off ends of handlebars.

Four chaincase gears - 18,19,22 and 40 tooth

2 RX-1 ski spindles (right and left) both slightly bent (can be easily straightened) with all bushings.

Take care guys, I will still be checking in from time to time.

Please send me a PM if you need any of this stuff.

Frosty, it is a sad day for us at team blue. But you will be back on 4-stroke soon. I am pretty sure;-)


You have been a great ty-member and you still are. Sad you never boosted your sled. That sled had all mods done and was ready for boost.

You will be back to the dark side:-) It is in your Norwegian viking blood - lol
 
I don't doubt it one bit! I love my Yamahas. I still have a Phazer Mountain Lite, 3 Ovations, a Bravo, a Mountain Max, a TTR-125, a Wolverine 450 and a TTR-225.

However, I boondock almost exclusively now and a lighter sled just doesn't beat me up as bad after a day of riding. I just wish Yamaha would build a lighter mountain sled a guy didn't need to boost or spend thousands on lightweight parts to be competitive.

Thanks guys. I'll still be around.

Take care
