Most Vipers 2014-2015 I saw 128-130, new 2016 133-135.
Does it come stock with same clutching as last year? Track hp of 15 and 16?

Stock (clutching & everything) 2016 track hp = 75-76 consistantly

Seems a little weird to have s limited build sled built that early usually they are a late delivery. Anyone?

Does this have the new motor?View attachment 111178 View attachment 111177 Well some good news about my early build it has the new jack shaft and bearing in it and was a piece of cake to take out compared to the old ones. View attachment 111176
No it does not have new engine. You can clearly see the old valve cover in pic of chaincase. They may have changed the dia in middle. In that case you would be able to check yours Joe. Will look at PDF and a sled with that shaft.Does this have the new motor?

The new driveshaft is nitride coated so it should be black. 14 and 15 weren't so should be easy visual check.
New engine then I assume?Just checked 8/15 build date.

Yes sir, engine and tuner 3's. Have to say for first Yamaha the fit/finish looks good.
