snowmanx said:
I took pictures of the spot the accident occured and there was no rocks, logs, holes, ditches, only snow drifts.

Wait, didn't you already take pics? I'd like to see it as it landed myself, not after its been dragged, mauled, and hauled out of a field and to a shop.
 
sorry I only have pics of the sled and the spot seperate not both together. When u get a concussion and wreck your sled the last thing on your mind is to take pics of the sled as it sat on the field. - sorry!

oh I think current pics of the sleds condition would be fine!!

Oh and as with others glad your ok! or as ok as can be expected after playing the human rag doll!!

Dude, you're hilarious!!! LOL!! May as well tell him to just get a clean shop towel and some Mother's - she'll buff out!!! :jump:
 
What I don't understand is the moto-x guys are riding stock Nytro's and haven't heard or seen any problem's,What gives?

glad your OK......well, maybe not, but could havce been worse. Not sure I would want to ride the sled again and for sure hope you can get to the bottom of what exactly caused this ......?
 
Wasn't implying you did anything wrong, and I certainly might not have had the presense of mind to take pics, just wanted to see the condition of the sled as it lay. I know that after hauling a sled that crashed out of the woods, some other things got broken that weren't initially, just trying to get an idea of it. Once again, glad you are relitively ok.
 
How about we look at that sled of Yugi's a little closer!!

That's NOT a production FX Nytro

Exhaust goes above the tunnel
rear skid diffrences
different shocks
different plastic

And what they have to hold together got say 2 miles and canbe rebuilt for the next 2 hours for 2 more miles?

Ok I've said enough..


Not a good comparison!
 
Same sorta thing happened to me!

I have been saying all along that these spindles are not strong enough to jump with at all!

There are way thicker ones on the Venture light sleds that should be on the nytros.
 
spindle differences

Hey guys, I'm usually posting on the phazer side, but I read your posts all the time (yeah I want a FX Nytro!) learning everything I can about this sled, good and bad. Anyway you ask for a comparison on the spindles, so here it is....

There are lots of obvious differences between the production (right) and race (left) spindles.
