Real world horsepower?

[jw440/800]

I was just wondering if anyone knows what the real world (dyno) horsepower numbers of a 2012 Apex xtx?
Also how much horsepower do they actually make/put to the ground?

Thanks,
Jason

Anyone?

153 HP + or - 3. You can get 10 ish more quite easily with more air and a PC 5

80 HP + or - 3 on a track dyno.

They are as fast or faster than the others in the same HP range as Yammie is good at getting the power to the snow.

Some of the others are a little quicker down low but the Apex usually goes by at about 500 '.

American Snowmobiler tests showed 162 hp I believe

Very optamistic, kinda like MY speedo.
Much closer to 150.

The 162 hp mentioned by Steeler above was with the changes I mentioned previously made to the sled.

It was Piss poor, misleading, reporting by Snowtech and others.

The Speedo's are very accurate since 2011 # 1. I GPS'd my stocker today. Speedo right on the money with no track spin. [within 2 KPH]

The 162 HP was reported everywhere, and quoted in Yamaha advertising. Very misleading and they all passed on the word.

The speedo on my 2012 VectorLTX this past weekend was within 1-2 compared to GPS on hard trails (minimal track spin) at high speed.

Then you got to ask yourself, "what did the 2006-2010 versions really make?"
