The Viper is a '15.
Our local dealer here said that it is all up to date.
My wife is beside herself with this sled. It was a good move.
And yes, I plan on getting a turbo version for myself now!

You two ride in some beautiful country that's for sure! What length track and lug height?

It's a 153" track.
The lugs seem much larger than my Apex. I'm not sure if they are 3" like the 2016's, but close to it.
Here is a little video my wife wanted to make for you guys!

What a nice thing to do! 
I really hope that y'all have ZERO problems with the Viper.
One question I have for the group......should this sled have a anti roll over "no drain" kinda deal that I've read about on other Yamaha 4S sleds?
Food for thought.....maybe a set of scratchers should be installed for those hardpack roads you ride on?

If you roll any 4stroke, you will deprive the engine of oil. If you find yourself upside down often, it would be a good idea. If you are a typical trail rider and rollovers are a rare thing, I would worry about it. Try to kill the engine immediately if you roll it. Also read that some people have experienced rapid oil draining if rolled while sled is running since the engine will pump it out through the vent. Another reason to rapidly kill the engine or get an MPI turbo...

Every 4stroke should have a roll over valve. The one from Mntviper here is the original and the best and very easy to put in. Look up four stroke solutions. It costs money, yes but it allows you to reprime the motor right away and go after a roll. Boondockers need it for sure but even us prairie guys have been known to roll going over the grader trail or out of a ditch. Very cheap protection in the long run.
