Play in the handlebars/steering.

[tapp1]

Ever since I had my Nytro I have noticed the steering column "floats" meaning I can pull up on the bars about a 1/8" inch. When I hit a bump riding you can feel the bars move up and down, I have not compared it to other nytros, just wondering if this play in the bars was normal?

Thanks

its part of owning a yamaha steering play, crappy bushings, a arm bolts coming out, poor hyfax wear, cold hands etc etc.

But I've never been towed and towed 4 sleds and never blown a motor!

Normal, until you install OFTs oillite bushing blocks. Then things get, and stay nice and tight. Do a search for OFT Racing.

Completely normal.

Completely normal.

Maybe so, buts its unacceptable for many and fixable as well. Same goes for the RX1, Apex, and Vector.

 

[yamahahaha]

has anyone found a quick fix for this, or something that reduces the play?
