Mod??
Show your cards!!

Add Teflon to the Inside impeller housing to tight the gap between the impeller and housing

 

[RAMSOMAIR]

I spray Teflon in there all the time and it didn’t help bahahaha. Yes, I know what you mean. I figured you geared it way up to spin the impeller at 13,000 rpm!

I knew it was the impeller... My Honda does NOT need the teflon!! lol.

 

[RAMSOMAIR]

My little Honda would chuck it a mile too

Haha, it feels slow since I live in the same neighborhood as Fleecer.

Yeah I did a double take, once you said RRBeds. I then looked at your location on your avatar and once I saw Maine, my thoughts went to the county!

Beds, long field straightaways, fast road like trails, your area has it all!

Problem is, those trails are Bigger then most sleds, it will take them down. I’ve learned that many times, so when we backpack a county trip, we try to keep it under a certain speed! You know what I’m saying, only top out 8-10 times per day instead of all day, and let up once near your top end!

Mine didn't need it either but I can't resist tinkering...haha

Every-time I hear the growl of that muffler in video it sounds real nice. I can just imagine in person.

It is time for a reality check!! Yamaha Is just a name that get 90% of there parts produced in China!!
Correct me if I am wrong but i believe the 998 block is manufacturer in China also..
Pure Yamaha is gone my friend and never coming back . You need to embrace and love cat ,we know deep down you want one!



Check this puppy this out "true blue "
Motor is manufactured in CCCCHINA along with all the parts

I spring ordered a 19 cat evenhough I always bled blue but I also have common sense. Saving 2k for the same sled was a no Brainer for me.
We order 2 sled that season from the same dealer and got a good rebate.

Very sad isn't it, as a mater of fact I do have a Cat to play in the snow with but not what you think.

Your an Idiot!. I have nothing to explain to you... I may NOT be a VIP member NOW, but I have supported this site in the past. 2nd. If you have not noticed the SRX/Winder is a CAT with a Yamaha motor, but you obviously cannot figure that out.

LOL, Its some easy.

I'd rather see the APEX motor in the Winder chassis

I believe there's a vid with the Apex motor in the pro cross, Vipex, very cool and snappy sled.

I bet that was fun! And maybe your OCD brain was thinking "I wonder where I would finish in this race on a winder"?
Always looking for snowmobile "stuff" for the cabin! Hell I made clutchmaster drink form a arctic cat coffee mug/ all the others were "dirty".

Actually i had MORE fun watching, mostly cuz a few of the new guys never did this kinda stuff before.
They couldn't get enuf of it.
NOW they understand why MORE power is NEEDED sometimes. Cuz winning is FUN!

My old Winder was the one winning every race anyways.

From French forums. Different sled and dyno, same results. Owner will bring it back once he's done 500km.

I’m looking forward to rockerdan’s review. He posted a few vids on youtube already of his new Mach Z. Search any subject in this forum and he has provided good insight into winders. I hope he gives us an unvarnished comparison after some seat time.

He's posted at least 4 videos & 100 pics already. LUV him
He ripped it all apart to remount the handlebars in a position he likes.
Now he may install a BOV with all new hoses & clamps.
I guess they had a BIG problem with the hose coming off intake.
If they didn't change it, MORE boost will make it worse.

SOOOOOO.........i think he's gonna rip it all apart again.
Gotta LUV him

Yes he and his preventive maintenance videos and pics are very impressive, and have helped many throughout the years with the models he chooses to ride and improve upon!

I hope he enjoys this 4 stroke whereas he has stated many times what he likes or looks for with his sleds. Fast, quick spinning, light front end with good handling characteristics for his local woodsy type smaller trails, but yet, also something that can keep up on the bigger trails! He may have found it, or, he needs 2 sleds, one 2 stroke and one 4 stroke. Either way, hats off to him for all he has done here on TY.
