My Nytro - Mod Results Review

Looks good Im debating doing the 136 to my nitro.Did you make anymore of those risers?

 

[Turtle]

Sorry - I only made one set of the risers. But I've heard of others who have bought some aftermarket ones (such as Fly risers) and have achieved the same results as me.

I couldn't agree more as I have been telling guys about why they cant keep up with me in a trail is because the 136 is so much smoother....I rode a Apex GT last year and loved the way the engine responded and sounded ...but theres noway he could keep with me on a trail even with studs ..I have alot more confidence when blasting down trails and bashing bumps because there is much more control with the 136" in str8 line tracking , braking, out of the whole, coming around corners is great too and I really noticed on his Apex GT 121" how much more his sled was teeter-tawtering in mid-size and larger bumps as mine didn't in the same trails. The RS tripples with 136 really have alot more going for them than alot of guys know...Sure if you like to drag race or lake race the Apex-Attack is a good choice but the tripple is bullet proof engine that gets great gas milage, lower center of gravity, its lighter, which means easier to handle and cost less to buy too. If you have an RS with 121" I also would suggest doing one of the best mods you could do>>GO 136" !

I agree with yamah crazy.

Now with the extension will it still fit in my 10 ft enclosed?And also ive read of guys putting the inch and a half lugs,can you still run studs or no?

 

[pro116]

trailer

yes you can fit a 136" sled in a 10ft enclosed

NICE
Did you find that you needed to reclutch?And can you run studs 96 down the center with a 136/1.5 lug?

 

[Turtle]

I did not reclutch, but I have been thinking about an Ullmer clutch kit, just for the performance gain.

With the 1.5" lug, there is very little room between the lugs and the tunnel protectors. Since I don't run studs, and the tunnel protectors tended to collect a lot of ice, I took them out.

With a 1.5" lug, you could probably run studs ... but I think I would advise against it. Things would be pretty tight in there.

I dont believe in studs myself..I've seen too much problems down the road and lots of grief!!! Just not worth it unless you drag race on the lake or run the lake>>> alot...I mean alot. Heat exchangers damaged, ripped tracks from studs pulling thru etc ..extra wieght, cost of buying them and installing etc. I even know a guy who was hit from a stud as he was following someone down a trail! I say just drive according just like you should in your car or truck. Now maybe before the Ripsaw track came along I might agree with the bare minimum down the center only! But since the ripsaw track graps so well and grips the ice and snow because of the softer compound and design of the fingers I am glad I no longer see the need for any studs (just not worth it)...but thats just my opinion I suppose, everyones different I run mostly trails and get by just fine without studs now. Hope this helps someone.

Is the Nytro geared lower than the Vector?

A buddy of mine has a 2002 Arctic Cat 800. We've drag raced a few times. By the time I hit about 85mph, I've got around 4 sled lengths on him. But after that he catches up pretty quick. But in the 660ft, I beat him every time.
