Just got off the phone with Excel. They called me and let me know my wheels are ready to ship. They added something really sweet. They are adding 2 wheels with OEM mounting total of 6 wheels for the 121 Nytro and 4 wheels for a total of 8 wheels for the XTX.

I went with the 6 wheel setup. You can go with teh standard 4 wheel replacement. I think the 6 and 8 wheel setup will be the ticket on these.

here is the pricing and some pics.


FX Nytro 6 Wheel Kit with mounting hardware $225.00


FX Nytro XTX 8 Wheel Kit with mounting hardware $285.00

Does it really matter if you use the stock mounting with Doo idler wheel?
I know that the Doo bearing (6205) is 3mm thicker than the Yammi (6005) but all the pressure is on the outside washer and nut.
So why are you guys machining the mounts or putting Doo mounts?

 

[Grimm]

The mounts between the slide rails have to be machined to accept the wider bearings so the wheels will be centered between the inner track nubs. If you don't, the wheels will rub the inner track nubs and suffer early failure due to wear and tear.

Machining a mount on the outside of the slide rail is not necessary.

Just bought a set for my 06 Apex RTX can not wait to try them out.

When you say mounting hardware is included, is that the single bolt mounts or the newer two bolt mounts?

I got my wheels put on the xtx yesterday along with new slides and will be going out riding shortly. They look to be better made than the Yamaha wheels. I'll let everyone know how it goes after some miles today and tomorrow.

Did you get the package of 8 wheels, or just 6? I ordered the 6 wheels for my XTX before even realizing the 8 wheel package existed.

I got 8 wheels, 6 stock, and 2 on my own extra wheel 'kit'.

After about 60 miles today, everything worked great. Conditions were somewhat low snow, but I wouldn't consider it marginal. My last set of slides needed to be changed before 600 miles in decent conditions. It's still early to judge the performance, but it looks like the wheels are just what is needed for the hyfax wear.
