Hi there, proud new owner of a 2016 Yamaha Viper M-TX SE. Looking for some general advice on maintenance of these sleds. I have been a 2-stroke owner for many years which most recently I was riding a Polaris Dragon 800.
Looking forward to being a part of the 4-stroke family. Have to do a break in initially. For the units equipped with FOX float 3 shocks, is there a pump that is included to monitor the pressure in them? Or do I need to purchase?
Is there anything I should be on the lookout for with these sleds?
Thank you in advance for your advice, it is much appreciated!

Congrats on the sled purchase and welcome to the ty family, the sled starts to break in at the 700-900 mile range, that's when it comes alive, once a year oil and filter changes, plus chain case and chain tension adjustment, not sure on the fox pump as my sled is a ltx dx= coilover schocks, after 300 miles ride it like you stole it.

Every sled equipped with FOX air shocks from the factory should have an air pump included as well. I would talk with your dealer.

Yes, it's normally in the packet along with the paper work for the sled.

how has the clutching been? After break in no adjustments necessary? What RPM are you guys looking for on top end to shoot for?
